Bahram II

Bahram II, his son, encouraged by the Mowbed Kerdir, turned against Mani, who was put to death in AD 276. His support for Kerdir made him very unpopular. Some of the Magi were already showing a taste for the political power they’d come to exercise in future centuries. Opposition came from the nobles led from inside the royal family: the Saka (who we’ve not heard of for some while – still in Seistan) and the Kushans (reluctant allies of the Sasanians) started a rebel movement in the east, lead by Bahram II’s brother Hurmazd.
