Bar Kokhba revolt
Roman military losses

Roman casualties were heavy; Legio X Fretensis sustained heavy casualties during the revolt, and Legio XXII Deiotariana was disbanded following the revolt, perhaps because of serious losses. Cassius Dio notes that "Many Romans, moreover, perished in this war," so much that Hadrian, in reporting to the Roman Senate, omitted the customary greeting: "I and the army are in health," — an admission that things were not entirely well. Some argue that the exceptional number of preserved Roman veteran diplomas from the late 150s and 160s indicate an unprecedented conscription across the Roman Empire to replenish heavy losses within military legions and auxiliary units between 133 and 135, corresponding to the revolt.
