Show Notes
At the beginning of the Common Era, Rome had conquered and subjugated the region of the Middle East known as Judea. However, an extreme Jewish sect was whispered about amongst Roman legionaries – they were ghosts, appearing at lightning speed and killing scores of collaborators and Romans alike before melting away. Every Roman, citizen and slave had heard of the Dagger Men and all were equally terrified of them.
This group would not go down quietly and would wreak havoc in the Roman province for years and permanently mark their place in the bloody history of the ancient Middle East.
