Appian of
Alexandria (c.95-c.165) is the author of a Roman History and
one of the most underestimated of all Greek historians. Although only his
books on the Roman Civil Wars survive in their entirety, large parts of
other books have also come down to us. Fortunately, the Mithridatic
wars belong to these better preserved parts. They are a very valuable
source for the history of the Roman expansion in what is now called Turkey.
The translation was made by Horace White; additions
in green by Jona
Lendering.
There are two systems to divide the Mithridatic
Wars: in 121 sections or 17 chapters. On these webpages, the text is
divided into sections; the following table shows the division into chapters.
