Ardabur (consul 447)
Ardabur (Ἀρδαβούρ, died 471) was an Eastern Roman magister militum of Alanic descent. He was the son of the influential general Aspar. He served as consul in 447 and as magister militum per Orientem from 453 until 465 or 466. Ardabur apparently often served under his father during his campaigns. He was removed from this post in 466 after being accused of a treasonous plot involving the Sasanian Empire, probably by his father's political enemies. The accusation contributed to Aspar's fall from power. Both Ardabur and Aspar were killed in 471 as part of a conspiracy between the Isaurians and the emperor Leo I.
