Chronology

Interactive Chronologies with maps are available in the section Changes Navigation

  • January 284: The surviving sources do not allow for a detailed or accurate reconstruction of Carus' military campaign against the Sassanids. They laconically report that the emperor devastated Mesopotamia, taking possession of the cities of Seleucia and Ctesiphon, and bringing the Roman army beyond the Tigris.
  • April 284: For unclear reasons the Romans withdrew from Persia.
