[edit] Shapur, Valerian and Philip

The caption to image Image:Valeriano.jpg says:

Shapur I receives the homage of Valerian (Standing, his hand is hidden in his sleeve as the sign of submission) and Philip the Arab(on his kneels), the Roman Emperors he defeated and took prisoner.

When did Shapur capture Philip? What is the reference for the interpretation of this relief?--Ahrarara 01:53, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

Well my reference is also noted on the image's page. It's from the book : Persia An Archaeological Guide by : Sylvia A. Matheson. Persian Savant 23:07, 26 July 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Stuffed with straw/dung

The article Valerian (emperor) states that Valerian was stuffed with straw after being skined, yet this artical says dung. Which is it? --Ceaser 11:43, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
