Date: From the second millennium B.C.E. Category: Economics; expansion and land acquisition; trade and com- merce; THE MYCENAEANS The Mycenaeans, the earliest known Greeks, built a thri ving civilization in the latter half of the second millennium B.C.E. Under Minoan influence, the Mycenaeans developed a palace-centered, redistrib- utive economy administered through the use of the Linear B script. Finds of their pottery in the Near East and as far west as Italy, as well as settle- ments on Rhodes, at Miletus, and elsewhere, suggest that the Mycenaeans traded extensively. The ambiguous nature of the archaeological and textual evidence, however, makes it difficult to determine the precise nature of that trade. Mycenaean civilization collapsed amid the troubles that plagued the entire eastern Mediterranean around 1200 B.C.E. THE DARKAGE After the collapse of the Mycenaean palaces, Greece suffered a major economic downturn and remained relatively isolated for several centuries. The population declined, and many fled to Asia Minor, Cyprus, and elsewhere. Long-distance trade and literacy disappeared. No longer able to acquire sufficient quantities of copper and tin for the produc- tion of bronze tools, the Greeks now turned to iron. In the ninth century B.C.E., conditions began to improve. Lefkandi, a city on the island of Euboea, played a leading role in the revival of long- distance exchange, trading extensively in the Aegean and as far away as Cyprus. By 800 B.C.E., the Greeks had reestablished direct contact with the Near East, Egypt, and Italy. 842 TRADE, COMMERCE, AND COLONIZATION ARCHAIC GREECE In the eighth century B.C.E., the Greeks entered a period of expansion, innovation, and economic growth. Emporia (trading posts) such as AI Mina on the coast of Syria, Pithekoussai on the bay ofNa- pies, and, in the late seventh century B.C.E., Naukratis in Egypt facilitated long-distance commerce in the central and eastern Mediterranean. Spurred on by the prospect of wealth, the need to secure trade routes, and over- crowding at home, the Greeks founded well over a hundred colonies. Southern Italy and Sicily received the first wave of colonization. Syracuse, Sybaris, and Tarentum, for example, were all settled in the late eighth cen- tury B.C.E. In the mid-seventh century B.C.E., the Greeks turned to the north- ern Aegean, Propontis, and Black Sea regions. Megara, for example, founded Byzantium (modem Istanbul) on the Bosporus around 668 B.C.E. The Greeks also established colonies at Cyrene on the coast of North Af- rica (c. 630 B.C.E.), Massalia (modem Marseille, c. 600 B.C.E.) in southern Gaul and elsewhere. Colonies were normally founded under the leadership of a particular city-state, rather than by the Greeks collectively, and often maintained close ties to their mother-cities. Among the most prolific colonizers were Chalcis, Eretria, Miletus, Corinth, and Megara. It is difficult to generalize about Greek colonization since individual colonies had various purposes and faced different problems depending on the nature of local resources and resistance. Most colonists were male and presumably sought wives from among the indigenous population. An oikistes (founder) led the colo- nists and was often worshiped as a hero following his death. Two major innovations aided Greek commerce during this period: the alphabet and coinage. The alphabet was developed around 800 B.C.E. and derived from a Phoenician script. Regardless of the motives of its inven- torts), the alphabet undoubtedly helped Greek traders to conduct business. Coinage was invented in Lydia in the seventh century B.C.E., and the Greeks were quick to adopt it. By the end of the sixth century B.C.E., many city-states were minting their own coins and professional moneychangers had emerged. Again, while the original purpose of coinage is unclear, coins certainly came to playa substantial role in facilitating Commerce. TRADE It is difficult to know exactly what the Greeks traded in any given period. The surviving texts rarely describe commercial activity, since most authors were elites who considered trade banausic and demeaning. In addi- tion, perishable goods leave little trace in the archaeological record, and 843 TRADE,COMMERCE,ANDCOLONIZATION The marketplace in Athens. IF R. Niglutsch) imports and exports varied from region to region depending on local needs and resources. Nevertheless, grain, slaves, metals, and luxury goods were probably among the items most regularly traded between the Archaic and Hellenistic eras. THE CLASSICALPERIOD Colonization decreased in the fifth century B.C.E.,but it by no means stopped. The Athenians, for example, founded the colony of Thurii in Southern Italy around 444/443 B.C.E.and Amphip- olis on the coast of Thrace in 437/436. In the fourth century B.C.E.,Philip II of Macedonia established colonies to reward veterans and maintain control of conquered territory. Athens was the dominant naval power in this period and used its fleet to protect the sea routes, especially between Athens and the Black Sea, from which considerable quantities of grain were imported. Both banking and bottomry loans appeared in the course of the fifth cen- tury B.C.E.Banking evolved out of the money-changing profession. Ini- tially, banks did little more than accept deposits and make loans. The extent to which banks financed commercial as opposed to "nonproductive" activ- ities remains unclear. Bottomry loans provided merchants with capital and insurance against loss of cargo. 844 TRADE, COMMERCE, AND COLONIZATION THE HELLENISTIC ERA The conquests of Alexander the Great ushered in a new era of colonization. Both Alexander and the successor kings used colonies of Macedonian veterans and Greek emigrants to administer their kingdoms. Alexander, for example, established Alexandria on the coast of Egypt in 331 B.C.E., and it became a major Mediterranean port. Other colo- nies were established in Asia Minor, Syria, Babylonia, and as far east as Bactria. The new cities spread Greek commercial practices along with Greek culture. Greek merchants, soldiers, and settlers brought greater monetization and increasingly sophisticated banking practices (including payment orders and checks) to the entire Near East, though their impact on indigenous populations should not be exaggerated. Rhodes emerged in the third century R.C.E. as a major naval power. Its harbors served a thriving maritime trade, and its fleet protected merchants from piracy. Rhodes was the commercial center of the Greek world until the Romans established Delos as a free port in 167. fuRTHER READING Billows, Richard A.

The two friezes on the altar celebrated the city and its superiority over the Gauls, who were a constant threat to the Pergamenes. Inside the structure, a small frieze depicted the legendary founding of Pergamon. In 181 BCE Eumenes II had the enormous altar “built on a hill above the city to commemorate the victory of Rome and her allies over Antiochos III the Great of Syria at the Battle of Magnesia (189 BCE) a victory that had given Eumenes much of the Seleucid Empire. A large part of the sculptural decoration has been recovered, and the entire west front of the monument, with the great flight of stairs leading to its entrance, has been reconstructed in Berlin, speaking to the colonial trend of archaeological imperialism of the late 19th century.

HERODOTUS TODAY 1.1 In a review article called 'A Triumph for Herodotus', Peter Green largely attributes the resurgence of Herodotean studies over the last forty years or so to our emancipation from the narrower model of historiography inspired by Thucydides. 1 We have been gradually liberated to experience the pleasure of Herodotus' text, and among the general educated public the Histories have increasingly been treated as a big book we carry around in our heads, keep on our table , refer to, study, and above all enjoy. Indeed, it is not unlikely for journalists and travelling intellectuals nowadays to pack a copy of the Histories in their bags.2 1.2 Herodotus' work is a history of the interactions between the Greek city­ states and their powerful Near Eastern neighbours that culminated in the Persian invasions of Greece in 490 and 480 BCE . It goes as far back as possible to explore the causes of this conflict, and it traces the rise of the Persians to be masters of a large multi-ethnic empire that conquered, or 1 Green (2003).

Philip also hoped to avenge the Persian invasion of Greece in 480 B.C.

  • Eusebius' Exegesis Between Alexandria and Antioch
    EUSEBIUS’ EXEGESIS BETWEEN ALEXANDRIA AND ANTIOCH: BEING A SCHOLAR IN CAESAREA (A TEST CASE FROM QUESTIONS TO STEPHANOS I) Claudio Zamagni* Eusebius’ Exegesis between Alexandria and Antioch Since the last comprehensive monograph on Eusebius by David Wal- lace-Hadrill, the exegesis of the bishop of Caesarea has been under- stood through his auspicious definition: Eusebius as an exegete has to be placed, like his city, between Antioch and Alexandria, halfway between the literal and the allegorical exegesis.1 Within such a frame- work, Carmel Sant has tried to settle a developing line in Eusebius’ career as an exegete. At its outset, under the influence of Pamphi- lus and Origen, Eusebius’ exegesis leans mainly toward the allegorical reading. Later, in the period between his appointment to the epis- copacy of Caesarea and the Council of Nicaea, there is a tendency to balance in Eusebius, and allegorical exegesis is perfectly offset by the ‘literal’ exegesis. Finally, in his last phase, which includes the * I am grateful to Aaron Johnson, University of Chicago, for his helpful suggestions about this paper and for his precious revision of my English. A big part of this essay is based on my dissertation, Les Questions et réponses sur les évangiles d’Eusèbe de Césarée. Étude et édition du résumé grec (Lausanne – Paris, 2003). 1 D.S. Wallace-Hadrill, Eusebius of Caesarea (London: Mowbray, 1960), 96–97 (American edition: Westminster, MD: Canterbury Press, 1961). These convictions are driven by an analysis of Eusebius’ philological and exegetical works related to the Bible (see ibid., pp. 59–99). This comprehension of Eusebius’ exegesis has also been recently confirmed by the remarkable study on the Commentary on Isaiah by M.J.

After the publication in 1883 of volume X of CIL in which Mommsen collected the inscriptions from Bruttium, several epigraphic texts of interest to Roman Law were discovered. These documents are little known, because they have never been digitized and are either unpublished or published only in local editions. The BILG project aims to fill this gap by making a corpus of Roman law tituli from Bruttium accompanied by appropriate epigraphic, archaeological and legal contents available online.

January 2018 Thessaloniki - Greece Abstract This dissertation was written as part of the MA in Black Sea and Eastern Mediterranean Studies at the International Hellenic University. The aim of this dissertation is to collect as much information as possible on agricultural practices in Macedonia from prehistory to Roman times and examine them within their social and cultural context. Chapter 1 will offer a general introduction to the aims and methodology of this thesis. This chapter will also provide information on the geography, climate and natural resources of ancient Macedonia from prehistoric times. We will them continue with a concise social and cultural history of Macedonia from prehistory to the Roman conquest. This is important in order to achieve a good understanding of all these social and cultural processes that are directly or indirectly related with the exploitation of land and agriculture in Macedonia through time. In chapter 2, we are going to look briefly into the origins of agriculture in Macedonia and then explore the most important types of agricultural products (i.e.
