I know for a fact that the Roman empire fought several battles with the Parthians. I also know not all Roman solders were honest and pure. I also know that the Parthian army defeated the Roman army several times during the reign of the Roman empire.
I also know that Parthians often humiliated Roman soldiers that they defeated. And the final thing I know is that major historical records weren't kept like they are in our modern era.
I know that there is no physical record of any Roman soldier mistreating a Parthian traveler as revenge for being defeated by the Parthian army. But I think I can prove a couple of things if anyone will help me.
I need to prove that some Roman soldiers were very angry about being defeated by the Parthian army. I need to prove that some Roman soldiers were corrupt and willing to do things in secret that they wouldn't do publicly. If I could prove both things, I could give reasonable proof that some Roman soldiers punished weary Parthian travelers because of the wars they lost.
