Can be used both as a war elephant and as a hunting elephant. The Sassanid Empire, which is also referred to in research as the New Persian Empire (in distinction to the Old Persian Empire of the Achaemenids and Teispids), was a major power and a rival of the Roman or Eastern Roman Empire for centuries. Apart from military conflicts (see Roman-Persian Wars), there were also numerous peaceful contacts between Romans and Sassanids, who influenced each other in many ways. Sassanid traditions also had a great influence on the Umayyads and Abbasids. -Wikipedia-
