Daniel 6:1

[Darius was introduced in the previous verse as "Darius the Mede." It is not historically confirmed who this Darius is. The name comes from Persian and literally means "hold fast to what is good" or "he owns" or "rich and royal." It can be a name or a title. The two likely suggestions are: King Cyrus himself or Gubaru, the general who helped Cyrus capture the city of Babylon and also served as its governor. It was not unusual for the king to have different names and titles in different parts of the empire. Just as the name Belshazzar in the previous chapter was unidentified until the end of the 19th century, there is hope that future archaeological finds may shed light on who this Darius was.]
Darius (Darejavesh) thought it would be a good idea to appoint 120 satraps (literally "protectors of the land") throughout the empire.
