  • Greece, the Land Where Myths Replaces Reality
    GREECE, THE LAND WHERE MYTHS REPLACE REALITY (Myths about Epirus) What is myth and what does it serve? Myth is a narrative based usually on a false story which can not be used as a replacement of history, but sometimes myth might be considered a distorted account of a real historical event. The myth does not differ much from a folktale and usually the boundary between them is very thin. Myth must not be used to reconstruct, however in the ancient society of the so called “”Ancient Greeks”” myth was usually regarded as a true account for a remote past. Surprisingly this ‘tradition’ is descended to the Modern Greeks as well. They never loose the chance to use the myths and the mythology of a remote past and to pose them as their real ethnic history. This job is being done combining the ancient myths with the ones already created in the modern era. Now let’s take a look at two Greek myths, respectively one ancient and one modern, while our job is to prove that even these myths are respectively hijacked or created to join realities not related to each other, but unfortunately propagandized belonging to a real history, the history of the Greek race. Thus before we analyze and expose some of their myths which are uncountable, we are inclined to say that whatever is considered Greek History is completely based on mythical stories, whose reliability and truthiness is deeply compromised for the mere fact that is based on myths not only by the Modern Greeks and especially philhellenes, but even by the ancient authors.

  • Popular and Imperial Response to Earthquakes in the Roman Empire
    Popular and Imperial Response to Earthquakes in the Roman Empire A thesis presented to the faculty of the College of Arts and Sciences of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts Christopher M. Higgins June 2009 © 2009 Christopher M. Higgins. All Rights Reserved. 2 This thesis titled Popular and Imperial Response to Earthquakes in the Roman Empire by CHRISTOPHER M. HIGGINS has been approved for the Department of History and the College of Arts and Sciences by Jaclyn Maxwell Associate Professor of History Benjamin M. Ogles Dean, College of Arts and Sciences 3 ABSTRACT HIGGINS,CHRISTOPHER M., M.A., June 2009, History Popular and Imperial Response to Earthquakes in the Roman Empire (120 pp.) Director of Thesis: Jaclyn Maxwell This thesis examines popular and imperial response to earthquakes in the Roman Empire period from the reign of Augustus through the reign of Justinian. It examines religious and scientific attitudes towards earthquakes throughout the classical period and whether these attitudes affected the disaster relief offered by Roman emperors. By surveying popular and imperial reactions throughout the time period this thesis shows that Roman subjects reacted in nearly identical manners regardless of the official religion of the Empire. The emperors followed a precedent set by Augustus who was providing typical voluntary euergetism. Their responses showcased imperial philanthropy while symbolizing the power and presence of the Roman state even in far off provinces. The paper also examines archaeological evidence from Sardis and Pompeii each of whose unique archaeological circumstances allows for an illustration of methods of reconstruction following earthquakes of massive and moderate size.

  • In What Time Were the Texts Written and What Was the General History of That Time? in Classical Times, Magic Was Already Disconnected from (State) Religion
    How to read classical texts How to read and approach classical texts 1. Understand their context: In what time were the texts written and what was the general history of that time? In Classical times, magic was already disconnected from (state) religion. Mystery cults were a big thing, much like fraternities in the last century. 2. Understand the different approach to knowledge: Authors back then often asked questions instead of laying everything out in the open. Also, what fiction and historical writing means to us today doesn’t necessarily meant the same in antiquity, so try to approach it with an open mind: Don’t take everything for a fact and don’t expect the same level of entertainment or structure that you find in more modern literature. 3. Keep in mind that back then magic was for most times strictly forbidden. They had laws against it and punishment wasn’t mild (e.g. Apuleius’ Apologia, a great text on Apuleius’ trial against accusations of him being a magician). So authors put information into their texts in different ways and magical aspects of writing were often hidden in stories, or buried within philosophy texts: - Use of fiction (Apuleius’ Metarmorphoses (more commonly known as The Golden Ass) is a good example) - Hiding bits of knowledge or information within lots of text that doesn’t seem connected or reads like rambling (they are all guilty of that) - Hiding under the guise of philosophy, especially Plato 4. Be patient when reading classical texts and if you are new to those, give yourself time to adjust, expect to get bored, confused and fascinated.

  • Ancient Greek and Other Ancient Testimonies About the Unique Ethnic Distinctiveness of the Ancient Macedonians

I would like to emphasize that history is a science that establishes historical truth through scientific methods... In this sense, history is not negotiable. The history of the ancient world has already been written and documented, over the cen- turies, through laborious scientific research by acclaimed international historians and archaeolo- gists.” Dora Bakoyannis, foreign minister of Greece (30.03.2009) 4 INTRO Today's Greek propaganda does everything it can to convince the world that ancient Macedonia was "Greek" and that the ancient Macedonians were "Greeks" as well. The reasons for this are merely political and well-known. It is of great importance to Greece to prove that the name Macedonia and the ancient Macedonians were "Greek", which means that today's Macedonians "have no historical right" to use these "Greek" names. However, despite these claims, relevant Greek sources say that the biggest opponents of today's Greek propaganda are exactly the works of the ancient Greek historians! A lot of these works contain indisputable claims that the ancient Macedonians were not only not "Greek" (Helens), but that they were, in a big part of their history, very unfriendly towards each other.

    Reconstructing Childhood Diet using Dentine Microsamples from Skeletal Remains from Kenchreai and Isthmia, Greece by Helena Devi Ramsaroop A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Anthropology University of Alberta © Helena Devi Ramsaroop, 2019 Abstract An understudied topic in bioarchaeology is that of childhood diet after weaning. Palaeodietary reconstructions have typically focused on examining breastfeeding and weaning or adult diets. This study uses stable isotope analysis of dentine microsamples to examine the diets of juveniles at the Greek sites of Kenchreai and Isthmia (Late Roman Period). Results from prior research conducted on bone collagen showed elevated δ13C and δ15N values in adults at one of these sites, which is suggestive of a significant contribution of marine resources to the diet. However, this elevation is only seen in adults, whereas the values of the juvenile remains suggest that children consumed a different diet that included less fish. The current study seeks to further investigate this dietary difference by conducting stable isotope analysis on dentine collagen. Five premolars from Kenchreai and two premolars from Isthmia were selected for this study and produced a total of fifty-two dentine microsamples. These microsamples provide dietary information for small periods of time within the time frame of premolar formation and completion. Premolars were chosen for this study to target the ages after breastfeeding and weaning at approximately 2.5 years, up until the completion of premolar formation at 14.5 years. The results of this study agree with the data from the bone collagen analysis, which indicates that children consumed less fish.

  • Chapter 1 Narratives of Roman Syria: a Historiography of Syria As a Province of Rome
    Princeton/Stanford Working Papers in Classics Narratives of Roman Syria: a historiography of Syria as a province of Rome Version 1.0 July 2007 Lidewijde de Jong Stanford University Abstract: In this paper I examine the scholarship of Roman Syria and the history of research on this province. The scholarly narrative of Roman Syria revolves around strong Greek influence and little impact of Roman rule, which has resulted in studying Syria as a unique and distinct entity, separated from Rome. In light of new archaeological finds and a re-evaluation of older evidence, I argue that these assumptions of deep hellenization and shallow Roman impact need to be abandoned. Using models coming out of research in other provinces of the Roman empire and anthropological studies of colonialism and material culture, I propose a set of different narratives about Roman Syria.This paper is the first chapter of my dissertation: Becoming a Roman province: An analysis of funerary practices in Roman Syria in the context of empire. © Lidewijde de Jong. [email protected] 1 Chapter 1 Narratives of Roman Syria: a historiography of Syria as a province of Rome In Syria […] the flower of the Hellenic conqueror was settled. […] For the Romans in Syria not much was left to be done as to the increase of urban development. (Mommsen 1906, 132) Mommsen’s viewpoint in 1906 still informs most archaeological and historical analyses of Roman Syria between the 1st c. BCE and the early 4th c. CE. The narrative revolves around strong Greek influence (hellenization) and little impact of Roman rule, which has resulted in studying Syria as a unique and distinct entity, separated from Rome.
