Fourth Macedonian War and Achaean War
May 30, 2004
The Fourth Macedonian War and Achaean War were fought at the end of a series of revolts and resistance activities to Roman rule in the east. A Macedonian insurrection by Andricus, in 149 BC, was crushed by Quintus Caecilius Metellus (Macedonicus) and Roman fury was then unleashed upon Corinth and other Greeks in the short but decisive Achaean War.
