Pacorus, succeeded his father,
Vologeses I., and was a contemporary of Domitian and Trajan; but scarcely anything is recorded
of his reign. He is mentioned by Martial (9.36), and it appears
from Pliny (Plin. Ep. 10.16), that he was in alliance with
Decebalus, the king of the Dacians. It was probably this Pacorus who fortified and enlarged
the city of Ctesiphon. (Amm. Marc. 23.6.)
