Bulla Felix: Bandit Leader's Ruse

Bulla Felix, a notorious Roman bandit leader, operated between 205 and 207 A.D. Notably, he refrained from killing his victims, instead pilfering only a portion of their wealth. Employing deceptive tactics, including disguising himself as a Roman official, he commanded a regiment of 600 runaway slaves and free men.
