Wolgash or Vologash (Template:Langx) was a king of Hatra, an ancient city in nowadays Iraq. He is known from more than 20 inscriptions found at Hatra and reigned from about AD 140 to 180. He was the son of Naṣru who reigned from about AD 128 to 140.[1] He was one of the first rulers of Hatra calling himself Script error: No such module "Lang". Template:Transl (Template:Lit), but he bears also the title Script error: No such module "Lang". Template:Transl (Template:Lit).[2] Both titles are also attested for his brother Sanatruq I.
