THE ROMAN-PARTHIAN ANTI-ARMENIAN TREATY OF THE END OF THE 90S BC: MYTH OR REALITY?

Abstract. The article is devoted to the analysis of the Roman-Parthian relations at the beginning of the I century BC, in particular to the consideration of the provisions of the treaty of 92 BC concluded between the states. The policy of the conquests of the 90s BC of the Armenian king Tigran II affected the interests of the major powers in the region. Therefore the "Armenian issue" could be a key in the negotiations between Rome and Parthia. The analysis of ancient authors’ evidence suggests the development of the Roman-Parthian anti-Armenian rapprochement at the end of the 90s BC. However, the analysis of the context of the situation in the Near East up to 92 BC shows that the Roman-Parthian negotiations could not be directed against the Armenians, at least on the Roman part.
