Map 44 Latium-Campania Compiled by N
Map 44 Latium-Campania Compiled by N. Purcell, 1997 Introduction The landscape of central Italy has not been intrinsically stable. The steep slopes of the mountains have been deforested–several times in many cases–with consequent erosion; frane or avalanches remove large tracts of regolith, and doubly obliterate the archaeological record. In the valley-bottoms active streams have deposited and eroded successive layers of fill, sealing and destroying the evidence of settlement in many relatively favored niches. The more extensive lowlands have also seen substantial depositions of alluvial and colluvial material; the coasts have been exposed to erosion, aggradation and occasional tectonic deformation, or–spectacularly in the Bay of Naples– alternating collapse and re-elevation (“bradyseism”) at a staggeringly rapid pace. Earthquakes everywhere have accelerated the rate of change; vulcanicity in Campania has several times transformed substantial tracts of landscape beyond recognition–and reconstruction (thus no attempt is made here to re-create the contours of any of the sometimes very different forerunners of today’s Mt. Vesuvius). To this instability must be added the effect of intensive and continuous intervention by humanity. Episodes of depopulation in the Italian peninsula have arguably been neither prolonged nor pronounced within the timespan of the map and beyond. Even so, over the centuries the settlement pattern has been more than usually mutable, which has tended to obscure or damage the archaeological record. More archaeological evidence has emerged as modern urbanization spreads; but even more has been destroyed. What is available to the historical cartographer varies in quality from area to area in surprising ways. -
La Via Appia
LA VIA APPIA Storia Alla fine del IV secolo a.C. Roma era padrona di gran parte della Penisola e una delle grandi potenze del Mediterraneo, solo pochi gruppi etnici, a sud delle Alpi, restavano da soggiogare. L'Urbe stessa stava cambiando il suo volto tradizionale assumendo quello di una capitale, ricca di opere pubbliche erette dai suoi generali vittoriosi. Il Foro, il Campidoglio, erano luoghi dove si ostentava la potenza crescente della città. Solo la nazione Sannita sfidava ancora l'egemonia di Roma da sud; da Paestum all'Apulia la Lega Sannitica minacciava di prendere Capua, non lontana dai confini del Lazio. La Via Appia nacque in questo contesto, come una via militare che consentiva di accelerare le comunicazioni coi confini meridionali del territorio conquistato. La strada fu poi estesa man mano che altri territori cadevano sotto il dominio di Roma. Appio Claudio Cieco, il console, fu colui che rese celebre la funzione di censore per le grandi imprese di interesse pubblico da lui realizzate, ma il suo nome fu reso famoso dalla Via Appia che gli sopravvisse. Nel 1993 la Via Appia compie 2305 anni, Appio fece tracciare la strada all'epoca delle guerre contro i Sanniti, nel 312 a.C., da Roma a Capua, per una distanza di 124 miglia romane. Appio impiegò anche i suoi capitali personali laddove le tesorerie dello stato erano insufficienti. Al primo posto fra tutte le strade di Roma c'era la Via Appia, a suo tempo la più lunga, la più bella, la più imponente via che fosse mai stata tracciata in alcuna parte del mondo, al punto che i romani la chiamarono "Regina di tutte le vie". -
Mario Pagano Continuità Insediativa Delle Ville in Campania Fra Tarda Antichità E Alto Medioevo
Mario Pagano Continuità insediativa delle ville in Campania fra tarda antichità e alto medioevo [A stampa in La Campania fra tarda antichità e alto medioevo. Ricerche di archeologia del territorio . Atti della Giornata di studio, Cimitile, 10 giugno 2008, a cura di Carlo Ebanista e Marcello Rotili, Cimitile, Tavolario editore, 2009 (Giornate sulla tarda antichità e il medioevo, a cura di Carlo Ebanista e Marcello Rotili, 1), pp. 9-21 @ degli autori e dell’editore - Distribuito in formato digitale da “Reti Medievali”]. 9 MARIO PAGANO CONTINUITÀ INSEDIATIVA DELLE VILLE NELLA CAMPANIA FRA TARDA ANTICHITÀ E ALTO MEDIOEVO Potrebbe sembrare straordinario che, su un argomento così centrale per la storia di una regione importante come la Campania nel periodo che si esamina, in particolare per la sua rilevanza rispetto all’approvvigionamento di Roma (accresciuta dopo la fondazione di Costantinopoli), e come cerniera col Mediterraneo e in particolare con Costantinopoli, l’Africa, l’Egitto e la Terra Santa, i dati siano piuttosto scarsi. Eppure, pochissimi sono i siti delle ville romane in Campania scientificamente indagati e, anche questi, solo molto parzialmente; una gran quantità di scavi e scoperte occasionali sono inediti o solo insufficientemente pubblicati; assai carenti anche le ricognizioni di superficie; pochi gli studi specifici, e limitati a zone non molto estese. Certo, negli ultimi anni la situazione comincia in qualche misura a mutare, grazie anche ai maggiori investimenti economici degli ultimi anni, ai ritrovamenti avvenuti durante la realizzazione di grandi opere pubbliche e alla continua espansione edilizia che hanno investito la Campania, e alla importante e lodevole iniziativa, che assume già notevole rilievo per il Casertano e il Beneventano, della prof.ssa Stefania Quilici Gigli, che ha permesso la pubblicazione di alcuni fogli della Carta archeologica della Campania riguardanti in particolare la zona di Capua, la valle del Volturno e la Valle Caudina e, prossimamente, quella Telesina. -

A Reappraisal of Hannibal's Use of Elephants

In addition, greater reliance on elephants in Italy, particularly after his success at the Trebia, would have hindered Hannibal in his lengthy cam- paign against Rome. The article also contends that Hannibal’s use of massed elephants at Zama highlights the degree to which he was accustomed to take chances in the field, especially given his demonstrable familiarity with the fickle nature of elephants when used for military purposes. Over the years, much has been written about the Carthaginian general Hannibal and his use of elephants during the Second Punic War. 1 Outwardly, it might appear as if the topic were a closed one and that there is little new to add. Despite this, a recent article by Jacob Edwards has added something new—and indeed controversial— by arguing that Hannibal might have achieved much more success in Italy than he did if a greater number of his elephants had sur- vived the arduous trek across the Alps.2 Edwards also suggests that “Hannibal’s use of elephants is one of thwarted genius,”3 the impli- cation being that Hannibal had developed an almost unique grasp of the manner in which elephants could be used in warfare. -
Il Duovirato Nei Municipia Italici: Contributo Allo Studio Della Fase Finale Del Processo Di Municipalizzazione Nell’Italia Centrale E Meridionale
ARTÍCULOS Gerión. Revista de Historia Antigua ISSN: 0213-0181 https://dx.doi.org/10.5209/geri.74783 Il duovirato nei municipia italici: contributo allo studio della fase finale del processo di municipalizzazione nell’Italia centrale e meridionale Simone Sisani1 Recibido: 24 de junio de 2020 / Aceptado: 18 de noviembre Riassunto. Il contributo analizza in forma sistematica i casi noti di municipia retti da duoviri all’interno delle regiones augustee I-VII, con lo scopo di offrire una lettura in chiave strutturale della diffusione del duovirato municipale in area italica: l’analisi consente di formulare ipotesi sulle ragioni storiche del ritardo istituzionale manifestato da alcune aree della penisola, dove il processo di municipalizzazione giunge a pieno compimento soltanto a cavallo tra l’età cesariana e l’età augustea. Palabras clave: Cesare; duoviri; municipia; praefecturae; quattuorviri; Silla. [en] The Duovirate in Italian Municipia: Contribution to the Study of the Final Phase of the Municipalization Process in Central and Southern Italy Abstract. The contribution analyzes systematically all known cases of municipia governed by duoviri within the Augustan regiones I-VII, aiming at offering a structural reading of the diffusion of municipal duovirate in the Italic area: the analysis allows to formulate hypothesis on the historical reasons for the institutional delay manifested by some areas of the peninsula, where the process of municipalization is fully accomplished only between the Caesarian and the Augustan ages. Key words: Caesar; Duoviri; Municipia; Praefecturae; Quattuorviri; Sulla. Sommario: 1. Il duovirato come esito del riassetto istituzionale di municipia quattuorvirali. 2. Il duovirato come esito della promozione a municipia di realtà vicane. -
