Events

• Tigranes I of Armenia is placed on Armenian throne by the Parthians in exchange for the cession of "seventy valleys". (approximate date)
• Quintus Caecilus Metellus Numidicus is banished from Rome, as the only senator not to support the land redistribution plan of Lucius Appuleius Saturninus, and goes to Rhodes to study philosophy.
• 100 BC - Indus valley civilization - series of raids or small scale migrations by the Aryans from the North-West of Indian Sub-continent.

I am almost positive that any invasian of the Indus Valley Civilization occurred at least a thousand years before this. I have heard 1800 BC as a good date.

Births

• July 13 - Julius Caesar, Roman general and politician
