Bokht-Ardashir (Middle Persian: Bōkht-Artaxshīr, lit.'saved by Ardashir') was a medieval town in the Sasanian province of Pars. It was founded in the early 3rd century by the first Sasanian king Ardashir I (r. 224–242) after his flight from the court of the last Parthian king, Artabanus V. In 224, it was incorporated into the administrative division of Ardashir-Khwarrah.
