When Pompey's legions conducted a campaign in the Caucasus, soldiers discovered that among their defeated opponents were women — fighting as fiercely as men. The Romans identified them with the legendary Amazons from Greek mythology. According to historical accounts, some of the captured warriors were later brought to Rome, where they paraded during Pompey's triumphal procession.
