I've never heard Arses referred to as Artaxerxes IV. Does anyone have a source for that? john k 02:45, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)

A source? Why, right here!

He is known as Arses in Greek sources and that seems to be his real name but the Xanthus trilingue and potsherds from Samaria report that he had taken the royal name of Artaxerxes IV, following his father and grandfather.
