§104) POMPEY IN THE EAST 91 104. Pompey in the East; the Death of Mithradates. Pompeyhad not yet ended the war with the pirates before he was given, bya vote of the people, charge of the war against Mithradates,1 whonow for several years had been in arms against Rome. In a greatbattle in Lesser Armenia Pompey almost annihilated the army ofMithradates. The king fled from the field, and soon afterwards, toavoid falling into the hands of the Romans, took his own life2(63 B.C.). His death removed one of the most formidable enemiesthat Rome had ever encountered. Hamilcar,Hannibal, and Mithradates were the threegreat names that the Romans always pro-nounced with respect and dread. Pompey now turned south and conqueredSyria, Phoenicia, and Ccele-Syria, which coun-tries he erected into a Roman province underthe name of Syria (64 B.C.). Still pushingsouthward, the conqueror entered Palestine,and after a short siege of Jerusalem, bytaking advantage of the scruples of the Jewsin regard to fight
