The siege of Rhodes was a battle of the First Mithridatic War that took place in 88 BC, during which King Mithridates of Pontus unsuccessfully besieged the city of Rhodes, allied to the Roman Republic. The Rhodian forces were led by an admiral called Demagoras and the Roman proconsul of Asia, Lucius Cassius, who had retreated to the island after the Roman defeat at Protopachium. Despite using complex siege engines, Mithridates was unable to take the island.
