For the record : How many times did Rome sack Ctesiphon ?
#7
Quote:You'd think the Romans would've torn down every building the first time they entered the Parthian/Persian captial.

I suspect that would have been a very very time consuming task - and the army probably wouldn't have had the logistic support for it to stay in one place and undertake it.

Also probably just not worth the effort.
