When the city of Mylasa in Caria sent to Publius Crassus, consul in 623, a beam for the construction of a battering-ram different from what he had asked, the chief magistrate of the town was scourged for it; and Crassus was not a bad man, and a strictly upright magistrate.
A new priest-king was set up in the person of Antigonus, the last Asmonsean prince, who held the capital for three years B.C. 40-37 as a Parthian satrap, the creature and dependant of the great monarchy on the further side of the Euphrates.
