	Aurelian's Eastern Campaign
		The Battle of Immae began with a Palmyrene heavy cavalry, the 'cataphractii', charging, which appears to have broken the lighter Roman cavalry formations, which fell back in apparent disorder and into a marshy area after a long flight..
		The Battle of Emesa appears to be somewhat similar to Immae in that the Palmyrene cavalry again routs the Roman horse but this time it appears that it was only with great difficulty that the Roman infantry carried the day.
		The accounts differ as given by Zosimus and by the Historia Augusta; some regard Daphne as the first battle and Emesa as the second, with no mention of Immae at all and suggest that the likeness of names and tactics suggest two versions of one battle.
