Zenobia reached Antioch considerably ahead of Aurelian, in time to convince the populace that she and Zabdas could defend the city against the Romans. Aurelian approached from the east, and Zenobia's troops fell back on the line of the Orontes River, just outside Antioch, and there the two armies faced each other. Despite the desert heat, the queen's horses and men were weighted down with chain armor. Soon, in a reversal of his usual strategy, Aurelian sent his infantry across the river first, followed by his cavalry which, rather than engaging the enemy, feigned fright and retreated. Zabdas pursued the Romans some 30 miles near the village of Immae. With the enemy forces suitably exhausted beneath their heavy armor, Aurelian ordered his cavalry to attack and easily defeated them.

%alt In 270, Zenobia broke her friendly relations with Rome and advanced into Roman-held territories in the east. Zenobia’s army led by Zadbas arrived in Egypt and defeated the defending army of 50,000. Aided by agents loyal to Zenobia, the Palmyrenes took Egypt. Upon hearing the news of the loss of Egypt, the Roman Emperor Claudius II Gothicus sent his admiral Probus commanding an army raised in Egypt and North Africa against the Palmyrenes. In a hard-fought campaign, the Romans were defeated and Zenobia’s hold on Egypt was secured.

MOLLY ZENOBIA: Wind Chains Molly Zenobia's "Wind Chains" is somewhat reminiscent of Tori Amos' earlier albums. It isn't difficult, for example, to hear the similarities between the album's strongest track, "Whirlpool," and Amos' "Pretty Good Year." Nevertheless, Zenobia adds something new and original to this genre, often using dissonated chords to produce a dark, melancholy, and occasionally eerie sound. The artwork for "Windchains" includes a monochromatic 14-page jewel case insert that does an excellent job of visually conjuring up the overall theme of the album. Also included with the insert is a synthetic blue leaf. It seldom gets any better than this. "Wind Chains" is a rare instance in which it is very difficult not to be compelled to listen to the album in its entirety in one sitting.
