The siege of Caesarea by the Sasanians under Shapur I took place following their siege of the Roman city of Antioch in 260 which followed their major victory over the Romans in the Battle of Edessa.
- ^ History of the Jews in Babylonia "At that point, and then alone, Shapur made a violent attack upon Syria and Asia Minor, devastated Antiochia, ravaged Cilicia and Cappadocia, took Tarsus, and, after a protracted siege, Caesarea."
