Battle of Mursa
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Battle of Mursa can refer to either of these two Roman battles at Mursa:
- Battle of Mursa, between Gallienus and the usurper Ingenuus. Ingenuus' troops were defeated, as Gallienus' general Aureolus adequately used the advantage given by the mobility of an improved cavalry component of the army (a remarkable military innovation of Gallienus's), and the usurper was killed in battle, or took his own life to avoid capture.
- Battle of Mursa Major, between Constantius II and Magnentius
