Brunner (1986 December 15) “ARTABAZANES”, in Encyclopædia Iranica, Encyclopædia Iranica Foundation, Brill, retrieved 2 November 2021: “This name is *Ṛtabṛzā/ăna, a patronymic of *Ṛta-bṛza, “exalting Truth”; it is also attested in Elamite. “Artabazanes” is also regarded as not being a variant but a proper patronymic to the name *Ṛta-vazdah.”
