§. 3. A Commotion in Cappadocia.

Whilst matters went thus unquietly in Parthia, the Calitae a Nation of Cappadocia, grew discontented about paying tribute to the Romans, and so departed into the mountain Taurus, and there fortifie, resolving as they never had used to pay such taxations, so ne∣ver to learn, nor to use to do so. Archelaus was now King, but not now King of them; for the strength of the mountains, and the desperateness of their resolution, do animate them to withstand him and to rebel against the Romans. When tydings of this was brought to Vitellius into Syria, he dispatcheth away M. Trebellius with four thousand le∣gionary Souldiers, and some other Forces raised otherways, to bring the Rebels to obe∣dience or to ruine. Trebellius invironeth with Works and Men, two hills, Cadra and Davara, where they were the most strongly trenched, and those that were so hardy as to come forth, he subdueth with the sword, and the rest with famishing.
