		Ancient History Sourcebook: Mithridates & The Roman Conquests in the East,90-61 BCE ^Votes:0 Back to Ancient History Sourcebook \| Ancient History Sourcebook: Mithridates & The Roman Conquests in the East, 90-61 BCE The Vast Power of Mithridates. [Davis Introduction]: I n Mithridates, king of Pontus (reigned 120 to 63 BCE), the Romans found their most formidable enemy, save only Hannibal. That he was a foe worthy to contend with Sulla, Lucullus, and Pompey is testified to in the following selection from Appian. In conquering Mithridates the Romans, almost against their wish, were forced to conquer most of the nearer Orient---especially all of Asia Minor and Syria---and to come face to face with Parthia. When at last Mithridates had been overthrown the Romans called the victory over him "The Great Victory" and Pompey, his conqueror, Magnus, or "The Great" - on ac Read More Go to Site

		Athena Review 2,3: Romans on the Danube: Carnuntum ^Votes:0 Athena Review Vol.2, no.3 : Romans on the Danube : Carnuntum Soon after the Roman conquest of Pannonia in 12 BC, Carnuntum (near Vienna, Austria) became a base for military operations led by Tiberius against the Marcomanni, a Germanic tribal confederacy. By 14 AD, the area was patrolled by the legio XV Apollinaris, transferred from Emona, the first Pannonian town on the Amber Road. At this time, for military and administrative reasons, the eastern part of Noricum province, to which Carnuntum originally belonged, was transferred to the province of Pannonia. Between AD 35 and 40, legio XV erected a military camp which initated the Roman settlement in Carnuntum, and became one of the largest and most important fortresses on the Danube limes or fortified boundary. In AD 62 the legion was dispa Read More Go to Site

		LEARNING FROM POMPEII ^Votes:0 LEARNING FROM POMPEII THE FINAL REPORT ON URBANISM POMPEII FORUM PROJECT Carroll William Westfall (*) September 18, 1997 Pompeii, the beguiling and enigmatic survivor from the past, puts into full relief the fundamental maxim of good city building, a maxim as valid then as now: buildings must be built first of all as contributions to an urban ensemble, and the urban ensemble must serve the civic life first of all. The experience of working in Pompeii as an urban historian with archaeologists for three summers was intended to uncover some simple lessons that could be applied by people building and rebuilding in American cities today. Pompeii is instructive for current practitioners in America because its post-earthquake designers themselves emphasized the urban ensemble rather than the indi Read More Go to Site

He had some interesting, if biased comments concerning the natives: "All the Britons," he wrote, "paint themselves with woad, which gives their skin a bluish color and makes them look very dreadful in battle."

		Sparing the Hornets' Nest ^Votes:0 By the end of the 3rd Macedonian War in 168, it was clear that the Roman wolf was enjoying the taste of the Hellenistic kingdoms it devoured. In a struggle marked by a brutality growing in direct proportion to its military incompetence and alienation of its allies, the Roman Republic swept aside the last obstacle to its appetizing prospects for military, political, and commercial domination of the Eastern Mediterranean. Egypt had come cringing to Rome for protection from Antiochus, who had retreated, humiliated, from Popillus's circle in the Alexandrian sand. Loyal, but wealthy Pergamon soon found its rulers humiliated, weakened, and brought to heel. And then there was the wealthy island of Rhodes, caught in its very ignorance of Pydna attempting to mediate between King Perseus and Rome. S Read More Go to Site
