Romans
"On the tenth of August the Romans fled from the vicinity of Damascus and there were killed many people, some ten thousand. And at the turn of the year the Romans came. On the twentieth of August in the year nine hundred and forty-seven there gathered in Gabitha a multitude of the Romans, and many people of the Romans were killed, some fifty thousand.

 * No, the Romans fled Damascus in August. An Roman army came later and gathered there. And in an ensuing battle, many of them were killed. That's what I can gather from this text. Str1977 (smile back) 16:03, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
