Years: 52BCE - 52BCE

The Parthians had invaded Syria in 53 BCE, but with little success, for Surena, whose achievements had made him too dangerous, is killed by Orodes.

For the two years following the disaster at Carrhae, Cassius has governed the province of Syria as proquaestor, quelling an uprising in Judea in 52, and defending the border against Parthian incursions until the new proconsul arrives.
