Pap was king of Armenia of the Arshakuni dynasty from 370 to 374.
He was the son of King Arshak II. He came to power owing to the support, shown by Roman Empire: Armenian and Roman joint army defeated the Persian invaders.
Though internal and external conditions were hard in his time of reign, he managed to reunite the peripheral regions of Armenia.
Pap's independent policy led to the dissatisfaction of Rome.
Roman commander in Armenia Traianus gained Pap's confidence and murdered him in 374 during a banquet which he had organized for the young king.
