Abstract
This paper tries to add more geographical details about two cantons of Armenian Pʿaytakaran as described in Ašxarhacʿoycʿ: Hrakʿotperož and Spandaranperož. These two cantons find their original Middle Persian forms in sigillographic or literary (Middle and New Persian, and occasionally Arabic) sources. Pʿaytakaran, regarded as a region once belonging to the greater Armenia, was already under Sasanid dominion and subject to Sasanid policy and its administrative reforms.
