Cyriadès
Cyriadès also named Mariadès by the more recent writers and the Byzantine historian Malalas. It is counted like the first of the Thirty Tyrants, according to the ancient writers, it is necessary to locate its usurpation under the reign of the emperor Valérien and his son Gallien.
In 259 - 260 in the anarchy which follows the defeat and captures of Valérien by the Perses of the king Shapur {{Ier}}, Cyriadès which had been driven out of Antioche for financial problems, would have collaborated with Persians and took imperial purple, then little time after, Persians evacuating the area carried out it.
In reality it was surely never named emperor by Shapur 1st, and was only one traitor on behalf of Persians.
