Battle of Carrhae was a terrible defeat for the Romans where an army of 1/3rd the size annihilated them. Crassus himself was captured and made to drink molten gold, a fitting end for the richest nan in Rome. This was the same Crassus that defeated Spartacus and crucified 5000 of his soldiers along the Appiab Way to Rome. Perhaps it was fitting that he met an equally awful death. The Parthians were the one enemy that Rome could never defeat, even under the great emperor and general Trajan.
Crassus made to drink gold is a myth and any general commanding a mounted army of archers fighting foot soldiers would ride round and round firing arrows at them.

But it was standard practice for archers to fire at the heavy infantry which would stand their ground waiting for the enemy to run out of arrows...as the video makes clear, Surena took the unusual step of maintaining a nearly inexhaustible supply of arrows.
Atracting the Romans to plain terrain far from shelter and water took its toll as well. Most interesting the tactics of cataphracts are treated wrongly in all videos on this battle. It Is imposible that a heavily armored horse mounted by a heavily armored soldier could gallop for any lenght of time. There are several interesting hints on this in Plutarch's Life of Crassus. They were actually displayed as an impregnable wall against normal calvary. The gauls dismounted to dislodge the riders from their horses by hand. If the cataphracts attacked Roman infantry head front not a single one would have survived.

You didn't finish the story. Crassus did not escape. He was captured by the Parthians who were acquainted with his reputation for accumulating great wealth. They forced him to drink molten gold.
He didn't ask for any more, let's put it that way. What goes around comes around. He crucified all the slaves in the Spartacus rebellion along the Appian Way. Couldn't have happened to a nicer bloke.

Well done. I've watched a number of videos on the Battle of Carrhae, and yours is the only one that showed Surena using his cataphracts to attack the Roman formation. It is my understanding that Publius Crasuss led the charge of near 5000 Roman calvary, and the Parthian's destroyed them all. Then, one of the Parthian's rode around the Roman's formation with Publius' head on a spear.
@@istvansovari4208 YES. This is Iranian history 100%. The Parthians are an Iranian peoples. The word "Pahlavi" comes from Parthian (Shah of Iran's name) and the language and culture of the Parthians is a big part of Iranian history.
Great account - u really capture the wide sweep of battle telling the strategic implications as well as the personal drama too! Simple but beautiful plan by the Parthians - bring oh say about a million arrows...

What was more frightening for the Romans was that they had to flee at night while leaving many of their wounded in the camp, who had been paralyzed by the terrible pain inflicted by the Parthians' arrows on their flesh. It was at this time that they realized that in the darkness of the night, their comrades were going to make these helpless people a prey to the enemy by escaping. It was at that time that their screams and moans covered the whole plain!!!! As an Iranian, I enjoy this event :))
Persians were not greedy in their history even at the time of Darius I and xerxes I They just punished Greeks they didn't want to conquer their lands and greek historians of that time lied a lot and exaggerated their battles
Carrhae was won by superior logistics and TECHNOLOGY (yes IRANIAN heavy cataphracts, bows and armor-piercing arrows were superior to European); the slave-crucifying Roman billionnaire Crassus had to die drinking molten gold. And YES, Carrhae was the most crushing Roman defeat ever, only 10,000 Iranians (!) massacred and demoralized 40,000 Romans (in contrast, Teutoburg was evenly matched, with German tribals relying on brute force). Parthians, Achaemenids, Scythian, Sassanids, Median, Safavids, .. all Iranian (we say "Persian") dynasties, all the very same great Iranian Empire that we Westerners still shamefully refuse to acknowledge, even today in 2023 AD. Where are the movies about the amazing Iranian Empire?? Iran, the origin of Human Rights and cultural and religious freedom, is an epic all-time titan of human civilization. Respect to IRAN!!
I am probably a descendent of Parthians, but it gives me no joy watching this bloodbath. But it is a fact that such videoes help against stereotypes of Iranians …

Этот Красс погубил 30 000 римских парней только потому что ему захотелось повоевать ради собственного обогащения и славы, хотя он и так был миллиардером на современные деньги и имел славу и власть, но ему все было мало. Он получил по заслугам и позорно закончил свою жизнь.
Здесь недосказанность и неточность. Красс был взят в плен и римляне внесли за него огромный выкуп. Потому что эта битва показала истинное положение, когда римляне столкнулись с настоящей боевой машиной парфян. Кстати Парфия создана сакскими племенами. Современные туркмены отчасти потомки парфян. После поражения от парфян римляне уже не совались на Восток.
Правильно ! Многие историки писали что Парфяне к Ирану и персам не имели никакого родство ! Язык , и все" остальное было другое . Это кочевники Парны и они из массагетов. После падения Парфии , Парны не с персами , а с армянами перемешались . Остальные с тюрками и в основном с огузами . Туркмены и часть Азербайджанцев прямые потомки Парнов .
If Caesar is in the command then he will setup a trap, institute scorch earth while advancing thru enemies, and then he never underestimate the ferocious Parthian Empire.
Persians? Medes! Achamenids! Parthians! Sasanians! Turkic Sefevids, Afshars, Qajars! Where are Persians????!!! Stupid Greeks called the Great Empire as Persian for unknown reason! Iranians or Eranshahr! Even language is Aramaic language thnx to Cyrus the Great! He was a half Median and half Persian!
Crassus was that person (member of the Triumvirate) who died in this Battle of Carrhae of course Pompey and Julius Caesar were the two surviving remnants of that Triumvirate {these two people never went to the Battle of Carrhae in the first place; the very reason (sheer reason) why Crassus undertook the dangerous Battle of Carrhae was because Crassus realized that Julius Caesar's victory against the Gallic tribes has made Caesar a hero in the eyes of the public and so therefore Crassus needs a big military campaign of his own ---- a campaign which also needs to be successful}

so good
thanks
Well done. I've watched a number of videos on the Battle of Carrhae, and yours is the only one that showed Surena using his cataphracts to attack the Roman formation. It is my understanding that Publius Crasuss led the charge of near 5000 Roman calvary, and the Parthian's destroyed them all. Then, one of the Parthian's rode around the Roman's formation with Publius' head on a spear.
This is persian history 😍❤️🦁💚
Parthians claimed Persian ancestry from cyrus the great and achaemenid so yes. They were the second Persian empire.
@@Kurdish20226 It's Iranian history. These are all Iranian people.
The Parni and Persian peoples. The word "Pahlavi" is Parthian.
NEM.Semmi közötök hozzá.
@@ciaronsmith4995 Parthians were Persian too
@@istvansovari4208 YES. This is Iranian history 100%. The Parthians are an Iranian peoples. The word "Pahlavi" comes from Parthian (Shah of Iran's name) and the language and culture of the Parthians is a big part of Iranian history.
why not using cataphract charge music from farya faraji?
should i travel back in time 2 years ago from when the video was uploaded and change it yeah?

I Love watching cenimatic battles ..more historical battles like this please.😁👍
A vast 'fleet' of camels. 5:25. I suppose they do call them ships of the desert.
Bueno genio se le dice flota. Pueden ser vehículos camiones o barcos
Great account - u really capture the wide sweep of battle telling the strategic implications as well as the personal drama too!
Simple but beautiful plan by the Parthians - bring oh say about a million arrows...
100 стрел на 1 лучника - это не так уж и много.
Просто гениальная подготовка к войне.
Superb = Iran❤❤❤

What was more frightening for the Romans was that they had to flee at night while leaving many of their wounded in the camp, who had been paralyzed by the terrible pain inflicted by the Parthians' arrows on their flesh. It was at this time that they realized that in the darkness of the night, their comrades were going to make these helpless people a prey to the enemy by escaping.
It was at that time that their screams and moans covered the whole plain!!!!
As an Iranian, I enjoy this event :))
you an absoloute nutcase
Rome was was lucky that the Iranians did not intend to conquer more lands. Otherwise, Rome would be easily destroyed by Persians
Persians were not greedy in their history even at the time of Darius I and xerxes I
They just punished Greeks they didn't want to conquer their lands and greek historians of that time lied a lot and exaggerated their battles
That would be the same Crassus who had Spartacus crucified, payback is a bitch !
Carrhae was won by superior logistics and TECHNOLOGY (yes IRANIAN heavy cataphracts, bows and armor-piercing arrows were superior to European); the slave-crucifying Roman billionnaire Crassus had to die drinking molten gold. And YES, Carrhae was the most crushing Roman defeat ever, only 10,000 Iranians (!) massacred and demoralized 40,000 Romans (in contrast, Teutoburg was evenly matched, with German tribals relying on brute force). Parthians, Achaemenids, Scythian, Sassanids, Median, Safavids, .. all Iranian (we say "Persian") dynasties, all the very same great Iranian Empire that we Westerners still shamefully refuse to acknowledge, even today in 2023 AD. Where are the movies about the amazing Iranian Empire?? Iran, the origin of Human Rights and cultural and religious freedom, is an epic all-time titan of human civilization. Respect to IRAN!!
Safavids was a foreign dynasty & Sassanids weren't tolerant at all.
@Ameer-dj5gj
Safavids were Kurds pure Iranic, don't type nonsense.
In film 300 persian vs greco
They were Turkmen tribes who had assimilated into Iranian culture.
Thank you Bro...! You have right. A great culture and an ancient history, old like the history as well
I am probably a descendent of Parthians, but it gives me no joy watching this bloodbath. But it is a fact that such videoes help against stereotypes of Iranians …

Этот Красс погубил 30 000 римских парней только потому что ему захотелось повоевать ради собственного обогащения и славы, хотя он и так был миллиардером на современные деньги и имел славу и власть, но ему все было мало. Он получил по заслугам и позорно закончил свою жизнь.
Здесь недосказанность и неточность. Красс был взят в плен и римляне внесли за него огромный выкуп. Потому что эта битва показала истинное положение, когда римляне столкнулись с настоящей боевой машиной парфян. Кстати Парфия создана сакскими племенами. Современные туркмены отчасти потомки парфян. После поражения от парфян римляне уже не совались на Восток.
Правильно ! Многие историки писали что Парфяне к Ирану и персам не имели никакого родство ! Язык , и все" остальное было другое . Это кочевники Парны и они из массагетов. После падения Парфии , Парны не с персами , а с армянами перемешались . Остальные с тюрками и в основном с огузами . Туркмены и часть Азербайджанцев прямые потомки Парнов .
If Caesar is in the command then he will setup a trap, institute scorch earth while advancing thru enemies, and then he never underestimate the ferocious Parthian Empire.

A member of the Triumvirate died in this battle and after which the First _Triumvirate_ came to an abrupt end
Crassus was that person (member of the Triumvirate) who died in this Battle of Carrhae
of course Pompey and Julius Caesar were the two surviving remnants of that Triumvirate {these two people never went to the Battle of Carrhae in the first place; the very reason (sheer reason) why Crassus undertook the dangerous Battle of Carrhae was because Crassus realized that Julius Caesar's victory against the Gallic tribes has made Caesar a hero in the eyes of the public and so therefore Crassus needs a big military campaign of his own ---- a campaign which also needs to be successful}
