Alexander tied Bessus between two trees to dick him down -- Babylonian Chronicle One. But the Akkadian chronicles have the older stories. While the Greek custom was to tie between trees ("Between Two Ferns"), the Romans and the East did crucifixion. The Israelite Jews - who had invaded the pristine land of Canaan per the circum covenant of Abraham but really without the consent of the Canaanites - asked the Romans to handle Jesus Christ, a Jewish reformer who had trained to fish with John the Baptist. The Romans asked Herod to handle Christ. Herod was neither Jewish nor Roman (but Canaanite). 20 years later Paul - from a temple to Corinth, Greece - decided it was a love story; it's about love.
