Notes

Sauromates I is mentioned in the letters of Senator Pliny the Younger. About 103, Pliny served as the Roman Governor of Bithynia. Sauromates sent his ambassador (legatus) to travel to Bithynia to deliver two letters to Pliny. The nature of these letters is unknown. The first letter requested Pliny, for a messenger to use a diploma (a permit to use official wagon) to assist the messenger’s journey, which Pliny respected. The second letter was for Trajan. Pliny learned no more than that it contained news, which Trajan needed to know. An imperial freedman called Lycormas took the second letter from Bithynia to Rome for Trajan. The journey for this letter would have taken 6–8 weeks
