This article's account of the episode related by Strabo in Geography 12.560 (or 12.3.38) is wrong. What Strabo wrote was that Polemon and Lycomedes of Comana attacked Arsaces, one the sons of Pharnaces II of Pontus, in Sagylium because he “was playing the dynast and attempting a revolution without permission from any of the prefects …” This stronghold was seized, but Arsaces fled to the mountains where he starved because he was without provisions and without water. Pompey had ordered the wells to be obstructed by rocks to prevent robbers from hiding on the mountains. Arsaces was captured and killed. (Testatorsilens (talk) 17:52, 6 April 2018 (UTC))Reply
