Biography Azen Gushnasp was a native of Khuzestan, and is also called "Khuzi" by al-Mas'udi and Gardezi. He belonged to the '' arteshtaran'' class. It seems that when the Sasanian military commander Bahram Chobin won a great victory over the Turks, Azen Gushnasp reportedly became jealous and accused the general of having kept the best part of the booty for himself and only sending a small part to Hormizd IV.

Ben-Azen
Ben-Azen (Canaanite languages, Canaanite for "Son of Azen") or Ramesses-em-per-Ra (Egyptian language, Egyptian for "Ramesses in the House of Ra") was an Asiatic official in the 19th Dynasty of ancient Egypt (ca. 1200 BC) at the court of pharaohs Ramses II and his son, Merneptah. He was titled "Cup Bearer".. According to an inscription ascribed to him, Ben-Azen came to Egypt from Northern Jordan, thus a Canaanite.
