3 unusual facts about Roman-Dalmatae Wars


Roman-Dalmatae Wars

In 158 BC the Greek city of Issa complained to her Roman ally that the Delmatae were molesting their mainland settlements of Tragurium and Epetium; similar complaints were received from the Illyrian Daorsi, neighbors of the Delmatae on the south.

The third conflict occurred between 78 BC - 76 BC and finished with the capture of the Dalmatae stronghold, Salona (port Solin near modern city Split) by the proconsul C. Cosconius.

From 58 to 50 BC the Delmatae were in the charge of Julius Caesar, proconsul of Gaul and Illyricum, though the commander was able to give little attention to his Adriatic responsibilities.
