High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Xerxes the Great, also known as Xerxes I of Persia, (reigned 485 465 BC) was a Zoroastrian Persian Shahanshah (Emperor) of the Achaemenid Empire. Xerxes was the son of Darius the Great and his wife Atossa. He succeeded his father in 486 BC with a very smooth transition of power challenged by no subject nation of the huge Achaemenid empire. The name Xerxes comes, via Latin, from Ancient Greek: , which in turn derives from Old Persian: (X ay r ). The name has appeared in many inscriptions in languages spoken in various parts of his vast empire: in Old Persian, Elamite, Babylonian, Egyptian (Demotic), etc. The Greek name is recorded in Histories of Herodotus and Bibliotheca historica of Diodorus.
