 Shortly after Probus' success in "Cyrenaica", Claudius gave him a further commission to undertake a naval campaign against Gothic pirates who had been raiding the islands of the eastern Mediterranean and the southern coast of Asia Minor.Only Zosimus records this action.However, recent archaeological discoveries in the Turkish province of Antalya suggest that, even as Claudius was concluding his war against the Scythian migrants in the Balkans, he had dispatched an expeditionary force under "Lucius Aurelius Marcianus" to repel attacks by Gothic pirates along the southern coasts of Asia Minor.
