During this wars the Chersonesos polis participated on the side of Rome. Information about them is presented in chapter 53 of the of the Byzantine emperor Constantine Porphyrogenitus tractate «De Administrando Imperio». This passage is an organic part of the treatise and was placed in it deliberately, as an example of Chersonesites valor, cunning and loyalty to Rome, which was useful for the addressee of the narrative - the young Emperor Romanus II. It has been established, that the use of a mobile detachment of carts armed with light throwing artillery for ambush operations during the « Battle at Bosporus » in 291 was an innovation in military affairs, which attracted the attention of Constantine Porphyrogenitus. Other aspects of this battle correlate with the instructions of the treatise «De re militari» by Vegetius Flavius. The victorious participation of the Chersonesos troops in the next two battles - on the Danube and «At Kafa» - gave Chersonesos confidence in their abilities and made it possible for the first time in history to expand the possessions of their state to the borders of the Kerch Peninsula. The duel between the Archon of Chersonesos, Pharnaces, and the Bosporan king, which decided the outcome of the confrontation in the fourth war, is not fiction and has numerous analogies in both previous Greco-Roman and subsequent Byzantine history.</div><div class="content-list"><p class="content-title">Other Latest Articles</p><ol class="content-link-list"><li><a href="/view/paper/404565">Financial Policy of the Roman Governor towards Provincial Communities during Period of the Principate</a></li><li><a href="/view/paper/404564">Domitian and the Roman economy: some notes</a></li><li><a href="/view/paper/404563">The Role of the Archon in the Organizing the Lease of Sacred Lands in Attica in the Second Half of the V-IV Centuries B.C.</a></li><li><a href="/view/paper/404562">The institution of hostages in Roman political practice at the end of the Republic and at the beginning of the Empire</a></li><li><a href="/view/paper/404561">Expressiveness of numbers in “The Achievements of the Divine Augustus”</a></li></ol></div><p class="updated"> Last modified: 2024-11-21 07:18:40</p><p><div class="clearfix text-left"><ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:block" data-ad-client="ca-pub-4404998886222708" data-ad-slot="1969977512" data-ad-format="link"></ins> <script>(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});</script></div></p><div class="fb-comments" data-href="//paper.researchbib.com/view/paper/404566" data-width="540" data-num-posts="10" data-colorscheme="light"></div></div><div class="rightcol"> <div id="ad3" class="sidebar-block"> <h3>Advertisement</h3> <span class="ad-slot"><ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:block" data-ad-client="ca-pub-4404998886222708" data-ad-slot="7353018769" data-ad-format="auto"></ins> <script>(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});</script></span> </div> </div></div> <div class="clearfix"></div></div></section> <footer id="rb-footer"> <div class="width-columns footer-menu"> <ul> <li class="title">Legal</li> <li><a href="https://www.researchbib.com/help/tos.html">Terms of Service</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.researchbib.com/help/privacy.html">Privacy Policy</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.researchbib.com/help/adChoices.html">Ad Choices</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.researchbib.com/help/privacy.html#cookie">Cookies</a></li> </ul> <ul> <li class="title">About</li> <li><a href="https://www.researchbib.com/help/about.html">ResearchBib</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.researchbib.com/help/career.html">Careers</a></li> <!--li><a href="https://www.researchbib.com/help/advertising.html">Advertise</a></li--> <li><a href="https://forms.gle/LGBVFg9o6EEG9hVBA" target="_blank">Contact us</a></li> </ul> </div> <p class="copyright-license font-em-zero-nine text-center clearfix">© 2024 ResearchBib.
