Jamasp (also spelledZamasp) was a 6th-centurySasanian prince, who was the second oldest son of the incumbent king (shah)Kavad I (r. 488–496, 498–531). Jamasp was greatly admired for his ability in war, but was disqualified from succession due to having lost an eye.[1] The following year after the accession of his brotherKhosrow I (r. 531–579),Bawi along with other members of the Iranian aristocracy, became involved in a conspiracy in which they tried to overthrow Khosrow and make Jamasp's son Kavad the new shah, so Jamasp could rule as regent.^[2] The conspiracy, however, was revealed and Jamasp was murdered.^[3]
