  • Demography Roman Spain
    CARRERAS MONFORT C. A new perspective for the demographic study of Roman Spain. Revista de Historia da Arte e Arqueologia n.2, 1995-1996; pp. 59-82. A NEW PERSPECTIVE FOR THE DEMOGRAPHIC STUDY OF ROMAN SPAIN César Carreras Monfort* * Universitat Oberta de Catalunya e-mail: [email protected] In the last years, there has been an increase in the number of demographic studies of ancient societies, with the main aim to recognize the internal organization of the populations and, to some extent, how the resources of a territory determined patterns of distribution [Gallo, 1984; Parkin, 1992]. Actually, within the limits of the Roman society, these studies allowed us to revise again basic concepts such as the relationship between the urban and rural world [López Paz, 1994], or even, to discuss about the degree of urbanism that supposedly it is accepted for the Graeco-Roman world. The demographic analyses on the Roman period were recently favoured by a better knowledge now, of the urban perimeters of ancient Roman cities, and the patterns of rural distribution; thanks to the contribution of either the urban archaeology and the rural field-surveys [Barker, 1991] and cadastres studies [Chouquer and Favory, 1991]. Furthermore, the important contribution of papyrology also stands out, since they supply information on demography, which despite being basically about Roman Egypt, it can be extrapolated to other provinces [Hombert and Preaux, 1952; Bagnall and Frier, 1994]. These new documental evidences allow us to carry out a new estimate, from another viewpoint, of the population in a very particular province such as Roman Spain, and also they become a headway in the detailed study of population patterns.

  • Week 9: Rome & the Provinces
    MMM Week 9: Rome & The Provinces 1. Range of Roman rule Of this whole country that is subject to the Romans, some parts are indeed ruled by kings, but the Romans retain others themselves, calling them Provinces, and send to them praefects and collectors of tribute. But there are also some free cities, of which some came over to the Romans at the outset as friends, whereas others were set free by the Romans themselves as a mark of honour. There are also some potentates and phylarchs and priests subject to them. Now these live in accordance with certain ancestral laws. (Strabo, Geo. 17.3.24=LACTOR M29) 2a. Judaea census, AD 6 In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world. This was the first census that took place while Quirinius was governor of Syria. (Gospel of Luke 2.1-2) b. Response to census Now Cyrenius (Quirinius), a Roman senator, and one who had gone through other magistracies, and had passed through them till he had been consul, and one who, on other accounts, was of great dignity, came at this time into Syria, with a few others, being sent by Caesar to be a judge of that nation, and to take an account of their substance. … Moreover, Cyrenius came himself into Judea, which was now added to the province of Syria, to take an account of their substance, and to dispose of Archelaus's money; but the Jews, although at the beginning they took the report of a taxation heinously, yet did they leave off any further opposition to it, by the persuasion of Joazar, who was the son of Beethus, and high priest; so they, being over-persuaded by Joazar's words, gave an account of their estates, without any dispute about it.

  • Antioch Mosaics and Their Mythological and Artistic Relations with Spanish Mosaics
    JMR 5, 2012 43-57 Antioch Mosaics and their Mythological and Artistic Relations with Spanish Mosaics José Maria BLÁZQUEZ* – Javier CABRERO** The twenty-two myths represented in Antioch mosaics repeat themselves in those in Hispania. Six of the most fa- mous are selected: Judgment of Paris, Dionysus and Ariadne, Pegasus and the Nymphs, Aphrodite and Adonis, Meleager and Atalanta and Iphigenia in Aulis. Key words: Antioch myths, Hispania, Judgment of Paris, Dionysus and Ariadne, Pegasus and the Nymphs, Aphrodite and Adonis, Meleager and Atalanta, Iphigenia in Aulis During the Roman Empire, Hispania maintained good cultural and economic relationships with Syria, a Roman province that enjoyed high prosperity. Some data should be enough. An inscription from Málaga, lost today and therefore from an uncertain date, seems to mention two businessmen, collegia, from Syria, both from Asia, who might form an single college, probably dedicated to sea commerce. Through Cornelius Silvanus, a curator, they dedicated a gravestone to patron Tiberius Iulianus (D’Ors 1953: 395). They possibly exported salted fish to Syria, because Málaca had very big salting factories (Strabo III.4.2), which have been discovered. In Córdoba, possibly during the time of Emperor Elagabalus, there was a Syrian colony that offered a gravestone to several Syrian gods: Allath, Elagabab, Phren, Cypris, Athena, Nazaria, Yaris, Tyche of Antioch, Zeus, Kasios, Aphrodite Sozausa, Adonis, Iupiter Dolichenus. They were possible traders who did business in the capital of Bética (García y Bellido 1967: 96-105). Libanius the rhetorical (Declamatio, 32.28) praises the rubbles from Cádiz, which he often bought, as being good and cheap.

  • Costa Barcelona English
    Costa Barcelona English Costa Barcelona L’Alt Penedès, El Baix Llobregat, El Garraf, El Maresme, El Vallès Occidental and El Vallès Oriental are the six regions that make up the Costa Barcelona tourism brand, an area which is defined and guided by its relationship with the sea but in which the land, plains, gentle mountain ranges and Mediterranean vegetation also form an essential part of life. Sea and mountain, cities and culture www.barcelonaesmoltmes.cat A fairly densely populated area, with numerous large cities and major transport routes, which also benefits from large expanses of lush natural landscape, as well as vineyards and other crops, and preserves numerous examples of cultural and religious heritage that stand as a testament to its long and rich history. The proximity to Barcelona has undoubtedly exerted an influence over the six regions in the past, as it continues to do today. However, each has its own unique identity, way of life and of doing things, its places of business, of leisure, commercial hubs, long-established festivals and cuisine to delight the palate, replete with local recipes and regional produce. An area that, on top of its summertime draw for those seeking sun and sea, has more than enough attractions to warrant a visit, short or long, all year round: Modernisme, or Catalan Art Nouveau, is found in abundance, be it in former summer residences, residential or industrial buildings; wine tourism, particularly in the regions of L’Alt Penedès and El Maresme (DO Alella); El Garraf, a region that tells us about those who went to make their fortunes in the Americas, Los Indianos, as well as the artists who gathered there a little over a century ago; towns where you can opt to kick back and relax or look to improve your health thanks to the spa waters found there; museums covering a wide variety of subject areas and first-rate music festivals; fairs; markets; conferences; and more.

  • Algumas Questões Em Torno Da Fundação De Augusta Emerita
    REVISTA PORTUGUESA DE Arqueologia .volume 1.número 1.1998 161 Algumas questões em torno da fundação de Augusta Emerita ANTÓNIO MARQUES DE FARIA RESUMO Alicia Canto defendeu há alguns anos que Emerita terá sido fun- dada por César em 45-44 a.C. Neste artigo, tentamos rebater todos os argumentos que aquela autora usou em abono da sua teoria, procurando seguidamente questionar a existência de uma segunda deductio augustana em Emerita promovida por Agripa em 16-15 a.C. ABSTRACTSome years ago, Alicia Canto has suggested a foundation of Emerita by Julius Caesar at 45-44 BC. In this paper we try to refute the evidence presented in favour of such a pro- position. In addition, we seek to prove that the alleged second Augustan deduc- tio of Emerita promoted by Agrippa in 16-15 BC never took place. Introdução A decisão de elaborar o presente texto resultou da leitura de uma frase de Vasco Man- tas num estimulante artigo recentemente dado à estampa (Mantas, 1996, p. 54): «[s]e tomar- mos o caso de Mérida como exemplo, cuja fundação em 25 a.C. não levanta problemas de maior, o que já não se verifica em relação ao seu estatuto inicial (Canto, 1990, p. 289-296) (...)». Posteriormente, tivemos o ensejo de comentar esta mesma frase, sem, no entanto, apro- fundarmos o assunto a que ela se reportava apenas pelo espaço que tal aprofundamento requereria (Faria, 1997, p. 180): «[n]ão é este o momento de discutir o polémico trabalho de Alicia Canto, no qual, de resto, a fundação colonial de Pax Iulia é datada de 45-44 a.C.

  • Novas Notas Historiográficas Sobre Augusta Emeritae Outras Cidades
    Novas notas historiográficas sobre Augusta Emerita e outras cidades hispano-romanas ANTÓNIO MARQUES DE FARIA R E S U M O No presente trabalho, propomo-nos, seguindo uma ordem meramente alfabética, discu- tir algumas das mais recentes abordagens aos estatutos jurídico-administrativos de diversas cidades hispano-romanas: Augusta Emerita, Baesuri, Barcino, Cilpis, Ilici, Murtilis, Pax Iulia e Sala- cia. Este tema prendeu boa parte da nossa atenção durante a passada década em textos que serão adiante referidos. Apesar de muito do que aqui pode ser lido já constar desses artigos, decidimos que era oportuno retomar o tema, corrigindo alguns erros entretanto detectados e acrescentando os comentários de cariz historiográfico que a bibliografia vinda a lume durante os últimos anos não poderia deixar de suscitar. ABSTRACT In this paper, we intend to discuss, following an alphabetical order, a selec- tion of the latest approaches to the juridical-administrative status of some Hispano-Roman cities, all, except two, belonging to the province of Lusitania: Augusta Emerita, Baesuri, Barcino, Cilpis, Ilici, Murtilis, Pax Iulia and Salacia. Although much of what can here be read is a repeti- tion of the ideas expressed in papers we have written during the last decade, we thought it was time to reconsider the subject, correcting some of the errors and adding a few historio- graphic comments raised by some articles and books published in recent years. Não é de hoje o interesse que temos manifestado acerca das várias questões respeitantes aos estatutos jurídico-administrativos das cidades hispano-romanas. Nesta ocasião, decidimos dis- pensar alguma atenção a uma série de cidades, a maior parte delas pertencente à província da Lusitânia.

  • Augustus and the Cult of the Emperor = Augusto Y El Culto Al Emperador
    AUGUSTUS AND THE CULT OF THE EMPEROR Augusto y el culto al emperador Duncan FISHWICK University of Alberta dfi[email protected] Fecha de recepción: 5-5-2014; aceptación definitiva: 17-6-2014 BIBLD [0213-2052(2014)32;47-60 ABSTRACT: Faced with the worship of the ruler in the Greek east, Augustus could do little more that regulate a practice that had already ex- isted over three centuries. His problem in Rome, in contrast, was to adapt the cult of the ruler required by contemporary practice to the usage of the Republic in such as way as to distance himself from Caesar, whose indis- cretion had produced his untimely death. The system he hit upon was to emphasize Republican forms, key abstractions, and the worship of state gods closely connected with his rule: in other words to establish the cult of the emperor by other then direct means. In the Latin west in contrast he was free to shape the ruler cult as he chose. His principal contribution here was to establish regional centres at Lugdunum and elsewhere for the wor- ship of Roma and Augustus, a prescription originally laid down for non- Romans in the Greek east. Sharply to be distinguished from this is the altar of Augustus at Tarraco reported by Quintilian. This can only be municipal, not the foundation monument of the provincial cult of Hispania citerior, which began only after the emperor’s death and deification. Keywords: imperial cult, emperor worship, Augustus, Rome, Latin west, Greek east, Tarraco. © Ediciones Universidad de Salamanca Stud. hist., H.ª antig., 32, 2014, pp.

  • ¿Hispalis O Emerita? a Propósito De La Capital De La Diocesis Hispaniarum En El Siglo Iv D.C
    ¿HISPALIS O EMERITA? A PROPÓSITO DE LA CAPITAL DE LA DIOCESIS HISPANIARUM EN EL SIGLO IV D.C. Javier Arce Université Marc Bloch, Strasbourg En una reciente edición de las obras de Ausonio, R. P. H. Green vuelve a plantear el problema de la capitalidad de la Diocesis Hispaniarum en el siglo IV, defendiendo la opción de Hispalis como capital. Por mi parte, creo que los ar- gumentos de Green no son suficientes y que los datos disponibles indican que la capital de la Diocesis fue Emerita, como aceptan la mayoría de los investigadores. In a recent edition of the works of Ausonius R. P. H. Green re-examines the problem of the identity of the capital of the Diocesis Hispaniarum in the fourth century A.D. He defends the choice of Hispalis as the capital. However, I believe that Green's arguments are not enough and that the other evidence available indi- cate that the capital of the Diocesis was Emerita, as the majority of experts believe. En la impresionante edición de las obras del poeta Ausonio, publicadas en 1991 por R. P. H. Green', vuelve a plantearse el problema de la capitalidad de Augusta Emerita en la Diocesis Hispaniarum, a propósito de los versos de Ausonio en el Ordo Urbium Nobilium. Los versos en cuestión son bien conocidos, pero no es inoportuno recordarlos siguiendo la nueva edición: Aus. Urb. 24.81 ss.: Clara mihi post has memorabere, nomen Hiberum, Hispalis, aequoreus quam praeterlabitur amnis, summittit cui tota suos Hispania fasces. ' R. P. H. Green, The Works of Ausonius (Oxford 1991).
