Afridun II explained

Afridun II was a Shah of Shirvan.^[1] He may have ruled during a time in Shirvanshah history that scholarship has referred to "a period of total confusion", due to the lack of written records and contradictory numismatic evidence. He was a son of Shirvanshah Manuchihr III . He had had three brothers, Akhsitan I, Farrukhzad I, and Shahanshah. He might not have even ruled. He left no numismatic evidence but known from his son Fariburz II's coins.
