Anzaze was a queen of the Elymais (a Parthian vassal kingdom in what is now Iran). [1] [2] She appears on coins together with king Kamnaskires III (about 82/81 BC to 75. BC following dates on the coins). [2] [3] They perhaps ruled together as on the coins she is called βασιλίσσης (the Genitive case of queen - βασίλισσα [basílissa]).
