Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract This thesis compares Umbria before and after the Roman conquest in order to assess the impact of the imposition of Roman control over this area of central Italy. There are four sections specifically on Umbria and two more general chapters of introduction and conclusion. The introductory chapter examines the most important issues for the history of the Italian regions in this period and the extent to which they are relevant to Umbria, given the type of evidence that survives. The chapter focuses on the concept of state formation, and the information about it provided by evidence for urbanisation, coinage, and the creation of treaties. The second chapter looks at the archaeological and other available evidence for the history of Umbria before the Roman conquest, and maps the beginnings of the formation of the state through the growth in social complexity, urbanisation and the emergence of cult places.

  • 1 Gallo-Roman Relations Under the Early Empire by Ryan Walsh A
    Gallo-Roman Relations under the Early Empire By Ryan Walsh A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Arts in Ancient Mediterranean Cultures Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2013 © Ryan Walsh 2013 1 Author's Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract This paper examines the changing attitudes of Gallo-Romans from the time of Caesar's conquest in the 50s BCE to the start of Vespasian's reign in 70-71 CE and how Roman prejudice shaped those attitudes. I first examine the conflicted opinions of the Gauls in Caesar's time and how they eventually banded together against him but were defeated. Next, the activities of each Julio-Claudian emperor are examined to see how they impacted Gaul and what the Gallo-Roman response was. Throughout this period there is clear evidence of increased Romanisation amongst the Gauls and the prominence of the region is obvious in imperial policy. This changes with Nero's reign where Vindex's rebellion against the emperor highlights the prejudices still effecting Roman attitudes. This only becomes worse in the rebellion of Civilis the next year. After these revolts, the Gallo-Romans appear to retreat from imperial offices and stick to local affairs, likely as a direct response to Rome's rejection of them.

  • Map 15 Arelate-Massalia Compiled by S
    Map 15 Arelate-Massalia Compiled by S. Loseby, 1995 Introduction Map 15 Arelate–Massalia Map 16 Colonia Forum Iulii–Albingaunum All the French départements covered here were treated in the CAGR series, beginning with its first volume, Alpes-Maritimes, in 1931. Its successor CAG is far more comprehensive, although unfortunately both maps were compiled before publication of the relevant volumes. Some references to them are incorporated in the Directories, however. Provence and Languedoc have in recent years been among the most dynamic regions of France in archaeological terms. As well as the periodic entries in Gallia Informations, the archaeology of the region sustains a series of journals, notably the Revue Archéologique de Narbonnaise, Documents d’Archéologie Méridionale, Bulletin d’Archéologie de Provence, Archéologie en Languedoc,andRevue des Etudes Ligures/Rivista di Studi Liguri.A comprehensive, up-to-date overview of the ancient history and archaeology of the region is lacking (Rivet 1988 is the best single work available); Bromwich (1993) at least provides a basic guide to the principal Greek and Roman remains. Of the numerous sites known exclusively from archaeology, only those significant enough to have attracted at least an article-length study are marked. The whole span from early Greek engagement with the region (c. 600 B.C.) is covered, up until c. A.D. 500; locations mentioned only in works associated with Caesarius of Arles are therefore excluded. From Cap Couronne eastwards (see La Couronne, Map 15 E3), the Provençal coastline appears to be little altered since antiquity, while on the western side of Map 15 the evolution of the shores of Languedoc has largely been gradual and minor–involving the shifting and consolidation of the sandbars which now separate the coastal étangs (lagoons) from the sea, but which seem to have been less developed in antiquity.

  • Hadrian and the Greek East
    HADRIAN AND THE GREEK EAST: IMPERIAL POLICY AND COMMUNICATION DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Demetrios Kritsotakis, B.A, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2008 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Fritz Graf, Adviser Professor Tom Hawkins ____________________________ Professor Anthony Kaldellis Adviser Greek and Latin Graduate Program Copyright by Demetrios Kritsotakis 2008 ABSTRACT The Roman Emperor Hadrian pursued a policy of unification of the vast Empire. After his accession, he abandoned the expansionist policy of his predecessor Trajan and focused on securing the frontiers of the empire and on maintaining its stability. Of the utmost importance was the further integration and participation in his program of the peoples of the Greek East, especially of the Greek mainland and Asia Minor. Hadrian now invited them to become active members of the empire. By his lengthy travels and benefactions to the people of the region and by the creation of the Panhellenion, Hadrian attempted to create a second center of the Empire. Rome, in the West, was the first center; now a second one, in the East, would draw together the Greek people on both sides of the Aegean Sea. Thus he could accelerate the unification of the empire by focusing on its two most important elements, Romans and Greeks. Hadrian channeled his intentions in a number of ways, including the use of specific iconographical types on the coinage of his reign and religious language and themes in his interactions with the Greeks. In both cases it becomes evident that the Greeks not only understood his messages, but they also reacted in a positive way.

  • Oppida: a Settlement Phenomenon of the Later Iron Ages of Britain and Temperate Europe: an Analysis of Colchester, Titelberg, and Canterbury
    Oppida: A Settlement Phenomenon of the later Iron Ages of Britain and Temperate Europe: An Analysis of Colchester, Titelberg, and Canterbury Volume Two The Sites: Later Iron Age Occupation at Colchester, Titelberg and Canterbury Emma Louise Jackson Classical and Archaeological Studies School of European Culture and Language Thesis Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Kent March 2017 7: Colchester The modern town of Colchester, (often referred to as Camulodunum in literature pertaining to the site’s later Iron Age, and Iron Age/Roman transitional period, occupation), has a long and vibrant history, with secure but not continuous evidence for occupation dating back to the Bronze Age (Crummy 1995b, 131-133). Flints dating to the Mesolithic and Neolithic periods have also been recovered through excavation (Brooks and Masefield 2006, 4; Brooks et al. 2007, 1); however, these are so limited in number that it is impossible to state definitively whether occupation was actually present at these times. Despite this early evidence for human activity it was not until the later Iron Age (Hawkes and Hull 1947, 5; Hawkes 1995, 4-6; Niblett 1985; 1-3) that Colchester truly became a flourishing centre of occupation. This is particularly true of the last c.50 years of the later Iron Age, (from c.15/10 BC1), when Colchester, (Figure 7.1), became one of Britain’s most significant settlements. Unsurprisingly, therefore, the archaeology associated with this period is both extensive and exciting; with, as N. Crummy rightly notes, ‘enormous research potential’ (2013, 38). Consequently, it was an ideal case study for the present thesis (see Chapter 1.2.3.1).

    245 Las inscripciones de Cales (Calvi, Italia) que el marqués de Salamanca dejó en Nápoles y algunas notas sobre esculturas de esa procedencia en su colección arqueológica The inscriptions of Cales (Calvi, Italy) that the marquis of Salamanca left in Naples and some notes on sculptures of that origin in his archaeological collection José Beltrán Fortes ([email protected]) Universidad de Sevilla Resumen: La colección arqueológica del marqués de Salamanca fue conformada en el tercer cuarto del siglo XIX y comprada por el Museo Arqueológico Nacional (MAN), de Madrid, en 1874. Casi la totalidad de los materiales son de procedencia de la península Itálica, como de Paestum y Cales, donde Salamanca tuvo concesiones oficiales para llevar a cabo excavaciones. De Cales (Calvi) procedían cinco inscripciones que donó al Museo Arqueológico Nacional de Nápoles, así como otras esculturas que se conservan hoy en día en el Museo Arqueológico Nacional de Madrid. Palabras clave: Arqueología. Epigrafía. Escultura. Museos. Cales. Abstract: The archaeological collection of the marquis of Salamanca was made up in the third quarter of the nineteenth century and acquired by the MAN of Madrid in 1874. Almost all of the pieces are from the Italian peninsula, like Paestum and Cales, where Salamanca had some official permission in order to carry out excavations. Five inscriptions came from Cales (Calvi), which he donated to the National Archaeological Museum of Naples, as well as other sculptures, that today are preserved in the MAN of Madrid. Keywords: Archaeology. Epigraphy. Sculpture. Museums. Cales. 1. Introducción José de Salamanca y Mayol (Málaga, 1811-Madrid, 1883) conformó la más importante colección arqueológica española de carácter particular del siglo XIX, que, afortunadamente en 1874, mediante Orden de 10 de mayo, fue adquirida por el Estado para engrosar los fondos del Boletín del Museo Arqueológico Nacional 36/2017 | Págs.

The Great European Empires: British and Roman Rule By Edward A. Tomlinson Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for Honors in the Department of History Union College June 2013 Tomlinson 1 Introduction: The greatest European imperial forces ever to exist were Rome and Britain. They controlled much of their known world and subjugated many foreign peoples to their rule. Rome ruled lands from India to the Atlantic Ocean, while Britain had colonies across the entire globe. The British Empire was at the height of its power in the Nineteenth Century, nearly 1200 years after the city of Rome was sacked by invading barbarian tribes. Even with more than a millennia passing between the fall of one empire and the rise of the other; they still shared many similarities in their manner of rule. They had to balance military might and political action to prevent rebellions and to maintain profitable colonies.

I investigate digressions and excurses on mountains, rivers, and certain myths associated aetiologically with the land, and demonstrate how Stoic physics and cosmology – in particular the concepts of cosmic (dis)order, collapse, and conflagration – play a role in the way Lucan writes about the landscape in the context of a civil war poem. Building on previous analyses of the Bellum Civile that provide background on its literary context (Ahl, 1976), on Lucan’s poetic technique (Masters, 1992), and on landscape in Roman literature (Spencer, 2010), I approach Lucan’s depiction of the natural world by focusing on the mutual effect of humanity and landscape on each other. Thus, hardships posed by the land against characters like Caesar and Cato, gloomy and threatening atmospheres, and dangerous or unusual weather phenomena all have places in my study. I also explore how Lucan’s landscapes engage with the tropes of the locus amoenus or horridus (Schiesaro, 2006) and elements of the sublime (Day, 2013).
