Although Cochineal as a dye is from Mexico, there is Armenian Cochineal that the Romans would have been able to obtain. It is related to the Mexican material.

I have a cloak dyed from Armenian cochineal. The person who dyed my cloak was researching ancient dyes and found that other than madder and kermes, Armenian cochineal was known.
