Parysatis (; , ; 5th-century BC) was a Persian queen, consort of Darius II, who had a large influence during the reign of her son Artaxerxes II.
==Biography== Parysatis was a Persian noblewoman of the Achaemenid dynasty. She was the daughter of Artanes, the brother of King Xerxes I. She married Darius II, with whom she had several children, including Artaxerxes II and Cyrus the Younger. Ancient sources sometimes mistakenly describe her as a daughter of Artaxerxes I, but modern scholarship identifies her as the daughter of Artanes, not a royal princess of Artaxerxes I.
