Darius was a Roman general wasn't he? (I'm trying to remember my Roman history....)

 

[Black Jack]

Darius is gorgeous (and I'm not biased!). Good luck with the bonding

Not sure about that but there was three Persian Kings with this name, it is of Greek origin I know,that . Roman general. Think it's worth a Google

His nephew, son of Pharnaces II (63-47 B.C.E.), was Darius, king of Pontus, appointed by Mark Antony in 39 B.C.E. (Appian, Bellum Civile 5.319). He ruled for only about two years before being dethroned by Polemon, son of the rhetor Zeno of Laodicia.. Told you it was worth a Google , never knew that xx

 

[DM 121120]
