According to historians its a great chance that he was Zaza Kurd. In the west the name is known as Zariadres. but in kurdish its Zer-ya-des. Theres no evidence saying that he was armenian. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.202.130.88 (talk) 22:32, 24 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I would like to see a source for the argument which hinges on this point: "the actual coinage of Abdissares does not carry that name but Abdissarou (Greek: Αβδισσαρού "Abdissarou"=Son of Abdissar)."
Αβδισσαρού is the genitive of Abdissares. A name in the genitive can be a patronymic, when (and only when) it follows another name, which isn't the case on these coins. Patronymics are not the only reason why names might appear in the genitive. In particular, names on Greek coins are always in the genitive - The idea apparently being "[coin of] Abdissares" or whoever the issuer is (the genitive case is the Greek equivalent of the English ’s). Thus the legend Αβδισσαρού does not mean "son of", and is exactly what we would expect to see on the coinage of someone called Abdissares Furius (talk) 09:38, 1 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
