previous next  Arsaces Xxiv. or Pacorus  Pacorus, succeeded his
father, Vologeses I., and was a contemporary of Domitian and
Trajan; but scarcely anything is recorded of his reign. He is
mentioned by Martial (9.36), and it appears from Pliny (Plin.
Ep. 10.16), that he was in alliance with Decebalus, the king of
the Dacians. It was probably this Pacorus who fortified and
enlarged the city of Ctesiphon. (Amm. Marc. 23.6.)  hide Display
