As a follow-up question, did Dacian culture and language disappear? Did the romanization of the region have any other long-standing effects than making Romanian a romance language?
I have a dumb followup question: were there any philosophies or religions that suggested that genocide was wrong in and of itself anywhere in the ancient world?
I ask this because I seem to remember some biblical references to what amounts to genocide and there was no strong impression that this was wicked or an act of last resort.
