First or second wife?

[edit]

According to Faustus' account, Olympias was the second wife of Arshak, not the first. As you can see here: "After this Arshak himself married P'aranjem, the wife of the slain [Gnel]. But to the degree that king Arshak loved the woman, the woman loathed king Arshak, saying: "Physically, he is hairy, and his color is dark". When king Arshak saw that the woman was not reconciled with him, he sent to the country of Byzantium requesting that a woman by azg of the imperial tohm be sent him as a wife. Her name was Oghompi [Olympias].". Is the something wrong, right?--Renato de carvalho ferreira (talk) 00:42, 4 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
