Unter dem Termin „Urbanisierungsaktivität” muss man sowohl die Gründung neuer Städte als auch die Erhöhung der bereits bestehenden autochthonen Siedlungen zum Rang einer Stadt verstehen. Trajans Urbanisierungsaktivität oder seine Sorge um Provinzen – wenn man es weit angelegt betrachtet – lässt das Bild eines vollkommenen Herrschers (optimus princeps) entstehen2. Sie wurde zur Antithese seiner fortitudo, zur Ergänzung seiner kaiserlichen civilitas3.

  • Paleomagnetic Implications on the Stability of the Moesian Platform and the Bulgarian Rhodope Since the Paleogene: Surviving in Between Two Major Rotating Systems
    Paleomagnetic implications on the stability of the Moesian Platform and the Bulgarian Rhodope since the Paleogene: surviving in between two major rotating systems Karen Oud MSc Geology student, Faculty of Geosciences, Utrecht University July 2008 Abstract To investigate whether or not the Moesian Platform and the Bulgarian Rhodope accommodated for the major clockwise rotation of both the Carpathian and Aegean systems since 13 Ma, paleomagnetic analysis was done on Paleogene sediments and volcanics from the Moesian Platform and volcanics from the Bulgarian Rhodope. The mean paleomagnetic direction for the overall Bulgarian region shows a declination of 11 o ± 10 o N at 30 Ma. Hence, with respect to the overall rotation of the Eurasian continent, the Bulgarian region is a stable block with a negligible rotation of 4.3 o ± 10.9 o counterclockwise since 30 Ma. 1. Introduction systems. Schmid et al (1998) state that during the Late Cretaceous, the western The Moesian Platform in northern part of the Rhodope moved northwards, Bulgaria lies in between two domains past the Moesian Platform. They also that have shown a clear rotation since state that the stable Moesian Platform the Middle Miocene, which is proven in served as a corner, around which several studies.

  • Oracles of Dionysos in Ancient Thrace
    UDK 398.3:25(398 Trakija) Haemus Journal, vol. 2, 2013, 61-70, ISSN: 1857- 841161 Oracles of Dionysos in Ancient Thrace Jordan Iliev Independent Researcher, Sofia, BG [email protected] Abstract: The focus of the article is the available information about the oracles of Dionysos in ancient Thrace. After a careful analysis of the currently know sources the author states that in the ancient Thracian lands there was not only one or two (as most modern scholars assume) but several oracles of Dionysos. The author proves this point by giving a special attention to some details in the ancient information, such as the localization of the different oracles, the features of the mantic session, the officials etc. In conclusion is summed up that although the provided by the ancient writers’ more or less detailed information, oracles of Dionysos in Thrace are not yet localized. Key words: Ancient divination, Dionysos, oracles, Thrace. Dionysos, the famous ancient Greek god of vines and wine, was strongly connected with the Thracian lands.1 In the following lines is paid attention to only one aspect of this connection – the available information about his oracles by the Thracians. The essential sources on this issue are only a few passages in the ancient literature, presented below.2 They are repeatedly discussed by the modern scholars, which bring together all sources with only one or two oracles of that god in Thrace.3 However, here is suggested a new interpretation, based on a careful analysis of the ancient sources with a special attention over some important details neglected by the researchers, such as the localization of the different oracles, features of the mantic session, the officials etc.

  • Roman Lead Sealings
    Roman Lead Sealings VOLUME I MICHAEL CHARLES WILLIAM STILL SUBMITTED FOR TIlE DEGREE OF PILD. SEPTEMBER 1995 UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON INSTITUTE OF ARCHAEOLOGY (L n") '3 1. ABSTRACT This thesis is based on a catalogue of c. 1800 records, covering over 2000 examples of Roman lead sealings, many previously unpublished. The catalogue is provided with indices of inscriptions and of anepigraphic designs, and subsidiary indices of places, military units, private individuals and emperors mentioned on the scalings. The main part of the thesis commences with a history of the use of lead sealings outside of the Roman period, which is followed by a new typology (the first since c.1900) which puts special emphasis on the use of form as a guide to dating. The next group of chapters examine the evidence for use of the different categories of scalings, i.e. Imperial, Official, Taxation, Provincial, Civic, Military and Miscellaneous. This includes evidence from impressions, form, texture of reverse, association with findspot and any literary references which may help. The next chapter compares distances travelled by similar scalings and looks at the widespread distribution of identical scalings of which the origin is unknown. The first statistical chapter covers imperial sealings. These can be assigned to certain periods and can thus be subjected to the type of analysis usually reserved for coins. The second statistical chapter looks at the division of categories of scalings within each province. The scalings in each category within each province are calculated as percentages of the provincial total and are then compared with an adjusted percentage for that category in the whole of the empire.

    Annex No.3 to Art. 14, para. 1 of ORDINANCE No. 22 from 14.12.2015 for the application of Sub- measure 19.2 “Application of Activities Within the Frameworks of the Community-Lead Local Development Strategies” of Measure 19 “Community-Lead Local Development”(CLLD) of the 2014-2020 Rural Area Development Programme (RADP). (Altered by State Gazette # 38 from 2016, valid from 20.05.2016) CLLD STRATEGY OF GOTSE DELCHEV – GARMEN – HADZHIDIMOVO LOCAL INITIATIVE GROUP Introduction During the 2007-2013 period, for the first time ever, Bulgaria managed to effectively utilize the LEADER method as a tool for decentralized management and integrated local development in rural areas. For the purpose, 35 local initiative groups, comprising 57 rural municipalities and 6 local fishing groups spanning across the territories of 17 municipalities have been established in the years prior 2013 and are still functioning. During the 2009-2011 period, we have performed activities with the purpose of preparing potential local initiative groups for implementing strategies for local development. Additionally, these activities are responsible for teaching skills and ensuring activities can happen on a communal level across the territories of potential local initiative groups under the Rural Area Development Programme. The LEADER method in Europe dates back to 1991. Since then it has been developed as a separate initiative in the EU member-states until 2007 (“Leader I” during the 1991-1993 period, “Leader II” during the 1994-1999 period and “Leader+” during the 2000-2006 period) and as for the 2007-2013 Programme Period, the initiative has been included as a part of the Programmes for Rural Area Development (PRAD) of member-states.
