}} The Camp of Diocletian was a Roman military complex, or ''castra'', built in the ancient city of Palmyra in the Syrian Desert. The complex was built under the Roman Emperor Diocletian in the late third-century CE and served as the military headquarters for the Legio I ''Illyricorum''.〔Pollard, 2000, p. 298.〕 ==Background==
During the Crisis of the Third Century, Palmyra broke away from Rome to form the short-lived Palmyrene Empire. The city was recaptured by Aurelian in 272 and, following another unsuccessful rebellion, it was sacked by the Romans in 273.〔Drinkwater, 2005, p. 52〕 Following the Roman reconquest, the city was re-fortified with a new set of city walls enclosing a much smaller area.〔 It lost its former importance as a semi-independent trading centre, instead becoming a key military outpost.〔Lee, p. 269〕 This is reflected in Palmyra's virtual disappearance from the historical literature; it is listed in the ''Notitia Dignitatum'', a late-4th century record of imperial offices, merely as the base of the Legio I Illyricorum.〔Ward-Perkins, 1995, p. 361〕
