All this talk of mid to late Rome has me thinking. I'm assuming most of you know how emperor Valerian was captured after his defeat at the hands of the Persians and died in captivity. Now, my question is are there any Persian sources on the matter? Do we get to hear anything of Valerian during his years in captivity?<br>
