  • Reconstructing the Late Antiquity Episcopal Complex of Valentia
    Archeologia e Calcolatori 28.2, 2017, 369-377 RECONSTRUCTING THE LATE ANTIQUITY EPISCOPAL COMPLEX OF VALENTIA The Almoina Archaeological Center was built on the most important excavation area in Valencia. Thanks to the old buildings, it is an authentic interpretation center of Valencian urban history. This space of 2,500 m² is more than a simple complex of archaeological ruins, because there are also extraordinary finds directly related to relevant historical events of the city, like, for example, the place of the Saint Vincent’s martyrdom and several evidence of the foundation of the city and the beginning of Christianity in Spain (Escrivà, Ribera, Vioque 2010). Among the different excavated buildings, which are opened to the pub- lic, there is a wide range of typologies. Most of them could be considered standard ones, because they appear also in other sites. Instead, others can be classified as exceptional examples within a large geographical context, i.e. the Episcopal Complex with the Cathedral, the Baptistery, the Mausoleum and the peculiar Visigoth necropolis (Ribera 2005, 2008). 1. The beginnings of the Christianity. The site of the martyrdom St. Vincent was martyred in Valencia in 304 AD, being part of the great persecution against the Christianity started by the Emperor Diocletian. He had a special and universal veneration in early Christian times. On the ruins of the prison, where he supposedly suffered the martyrdom, a horseshoe apse was erected. This is the only remaining testimony of the building, perhaps a small church, commemorating the sacred place. The ground floor has been well preserved, but just with little elevation.

  • The Most Important Roman Cities in Valencian Land Until the 3Rd Century
    CATALAN HISTORICAL REVIEW, 4: 9-26 (2011) Institut d’Estudis Catalans, Barcelona DOI: 10.2436/20.1000.01.49 · ISSN: 2013-407X http://revistes.iec.cat/chr/ The most important Roman cities in Valencian Land until the 3rd century Carmen Aranegui* Universitat de València Received 15 June 2010 · Accepted 20 September 2010 Abstract The region of Valencia is the geographic link between southern and northern Mediterranean Iberia, between the Betis Valley and the islands of Ibiza and Formentera. Its strategic location is the reason behind the early Romanisation of Sa- guntum, Valentia and Ilici. They were neither large cities nor had costly monuments compared to Hispania as a whole; however, their interest lies in the fact that they display a model of integration into Roman lifestyles that preserves some traits from the local past, as can be gleaned from their reputation (see Sagunt) or their epithets (Valentia Edetanorum). Keywords: Roman cities, romanisation, Valencia 2nd century BC/3rd century AD Introduction joined the new system at an early date and efficiently adapted the exploitation of its resources. Lying between the south of the conventus Tarraconensis and the north of the conventus Carthaginensis, the cities in the region of Valencia had gradually been gestating Romanised cities in the Republican period since proto-history via different processes. The Xúquer River served as the dividing line between a southern area Saguntum (Sagunt) that was more heavily affected by the Phoenician-Punic After the Second Punic War (218-202 BC), Saguntum (Liv. culture and a northern area where less contact was re- 21.8.10) underwent an intervention that is acknowledged corded and which instead had closer ties with the region as being the prime example of Roman urban planning in around the Ebro River.

  • Map 28 Mauretania Tingitana Compiled by M
    Map 28 Mauretania Tingitana Compiled by M. Euzennat, 1995 Introduction Map 1a Fortunatae Insulae Map 28 Mauretania Tingitana The Mediterranean coast of Mauretania was regularly visited from the seventh century B.C. onwards, first by Phoenician (later Carthaginian) sailors on their way west to Spain. At the same time, the merchants of Gades (Map 26 D5) explored the Atlantic coast as far as the island of Mogador, today firmly identified as Cerne (Map 1a C2), which served as a trading station for two centuries as well as from time to time thereafter. The map attempts to reflect the current views of geologists and geographers on the nature of the physical landscape in antiquity, particularly in the Atlantic coastal plains (Desanges 1978, 111-12, 134; Euzennat 1989, 98-103; EncBerb 20 Gharb). Little is known of the organization of the interior, occupied by warlike Moorish tribes, before the middle of the second century B.C. when it came to be ruled by King Bocchus and his descendants. Eventually, in 33, the entire kingdom of Mauretania somehow passed to the Romans, who established three colonies, Zilil, Babba (unlocated) and Banasa, spread out between Tingi and the Oued Sebou (ancient Sububus fl.), and sited in part to strengthen links with the two principal centers of the south, Sala and Volubilis. In 25 B.C. Augustus reconstituted the kingdom of Mauretania for Juba. In A.D. 40, however, after the death of Juba’s son Ptolemy, it was divided into two Roman provinces, Mauretania Caesariensis to the east and Mauretania Tingitana to the west.

  • The Britons in Late Antiquity: Power, Identity And
    THE BRITONS IN LATE ANTIQUITY: POWER, IDENTITY AND ETHNICITY EDWIN R. HUSTWIT Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Bangor University 2014 Summary This study focuses on the creation of both British ethnic or ‘national’ identity and Brittonic regional/dynastic identities in the Roman and early medieval periods. It is divided into two interrelated sections which deal with a broad range of textual and archaeological evidence. Its starting point is an examination of Roman views of the inhabitants of the island of Britain and how ethnographic images were created in order to define the population of Britain as 1 barbarians who required the civilising influence of imperial conquest. The discussion here seeks to elucidate, as far as possible, the extent to which the Britons were incorporated into the provincial framework and subsequently ordered and defined themselves as an imperial people. This first section culminates with discussion of Gildas’s De Excidio Britanniae. It seeks to illuminate how Gildas attempted to create a new identity for his contemporaries which, though to a certain extent based on the foundations of Roman-period Britishness, situated his gens uniquely amongst the peoples of late antique Europe as God’s familia. The second section of the thesis examines the creation of regional and dynastic identities and the emergence of kingship amongst the Britons in the late and immediately post-Roman periods. It is largely concerned to show how interaction with the Roman state played a key role in the creation of early kingships in northern and western Britain. The argument stresses that while there were claims of continuity in group identities in the late antique period, the socio-political units which emerged in the fifth and sixth centuries were new entities.

Rowe, (Department of Greek and Roman Studies) Supervisor Dr. J. Geoffrey Kron, (Department of Greek and Roman Studies) Departmental Member The purpose of this thesis is to determine whether the Roman administrative towns of Britain continued in their original Romanized form as seen in the second century AD, or were altered in their appearance and function in the fourth and fifth century, with a visible reduction in their urbanization and Romanization. It will be argued that British town life did change significantly. Major components of urbanization were disrupted with the public buildings disused or altered for other purposes, and the reduction or cessation of public services. A reduction in the population of the towns can be perceived in the eventual disuse of the extramural cemeteries and abandonment of substantial areas of settlement or possibly entire towns.

  • The Empire Strikes: the Growth of Roman Infrastructural Minting Power, 60 B.C
    The Empire Strikes: The Growth of Roman Infrastructural Minting Power, 60 B.C. – A.D. 68 A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Classics of the College of Arts and Sciences by David Schwei M.A., University of Cincinnati, December 2012 B.A., Emory University, May 2009 Committee Chairs: Peter van Minnen, Ph.D Barbara Burrell, Ph.D. ABSTRACT Coins permeated the Roman Empire, and they offer a unique perspective into the ability of the Roman state to implement its decisions in Italy and the provinces. This dissertation examines how this ability changed and grew over time, between 60 B.C. and A.D. 68, as seen through coin production. Earlier scholars assumed that the mint at Rome always produced coinage for the entire empire, or they have focused on a sudden change under Augustus. Recent advances in catalogs, documentation of coin hoards, and metallurgical analyses allow a fuller picture to be painted. This dissertation integrates the previously overlooked coinages of Asia Minor, Syria, and Egypt with the denarius of the Latin West. In order to measure the development of the Roman state’s infrastructural power, this dissertation combines the anthropological ideal types of hegemonic and territorial empires with the numismatic method of detecting coordinated activity at multiple mints. The Roman state exercised its power over various regions to different extents, and it used its power differently over time. During the Republic, the Roman state had low infrastructural minting capacity.
