This policy of obtaining riches by force had its continuation in the campaigns of Pompey and later Julius Caesar, whom the histories say undertook not only to fight Pompey, but to profit from the conquest in order pay his creditors.
Esta política de obtención de riquezas pola forza tivo a súa continuidade nas campañas de Pompeio e posteriormente de Xulio César, de quen contan as crónicas que acudiu non só a loitar contra Pompeio, senón a lucrarse da conquista para pagar aos seus acredores.
