Artav (’rt’w “the just”, also spelled Artabanus)[3] was a Khwarazmian king who ruled the Khwarazm region of Central Asia in the second half of the 2nd century. He was the second king of an unnamed kingdom in Khwarazm, founded by his predecessor, whose name is unknown. Artav, during his reign, started the construction of the city of Toprak-Kala, which became his capital.[4]

Some of his coins were found in his capital city of Toprak-Kala, together with coins of the Kushan Empire rulers Vima Kadphises and Kanishka.[5]
