    chapter 6 Building Urban Community on the Margins: Stratonikeia and the Sanctuary of Zeus at Panamara While Lagina was a local shrine that grew and expanded with Stratonikeia to become its religious center, the sanctuary of Zeus Karios at Panamara was already recognized as an important regional cult center in southern Karia.1 However, it, too, was gradually drawn into the orbit of Stratonikeia to become the next major urban sanctuary of the polis. This case study explores yet another kind of dynamic in the transition to polis sanctuary, one that entailed a major lateral shift in scope for Panamara, from the wider region of southern Karia with diverse communities towards the urban center in the north and its demographic base (Figure 6.1, and Figure 5.1 above). Through an examination of this transition it will become apparent how Stratonikeia came to replace, or absorb, the administering body of the sanctuary, but also how Panamara was used to achieve the same kinds of goals of the emerging polis as was Lagina: territorial integrity, social cohesion, and global recognition, albeit in a different way. Panamara and its environment have unfortunately not been subject to the same systematic archaeological investigations as Lagina, and much of the orig- inal landscape in the area has already been lost in the exploitation of lignite, or brown coal, through strip-mining. Our sources for this sanctuary and its envi- ronment are therefore severely limited, especially with regard to architecture and processional routes. Fortunately, however, the communities involved with the sanctuary at Panamara left hundreds of inscriptions behind that provide valuable insights into the way in which the sanctuary and cult of Zeus Karios were gradually realigned to meet the needs of Stratonikeia.

  • Il Legionario 51 La Guarnigione Di Roma
    IL LEGIONARIO COMMENTARIVS DEL SOLDATO ROMANO NOTIZIARIO DELL’ASSOCIAZIONE ANNO VI N.51 – GENNAIO 2019 - Testo e struttura a cura di TETRVS LA GUARNIGIONE DI ROMA Guardia Pretoriana -Arco di Trionfo di Tiberio Claudio - Roma - Museo del Louvre PREMESSA La guarnigione di Roma è stata la forza militare di stanza a Roma a partire dal principato di Ottaviano Augusto (imperatore dal 27 a. C. al 14 d. C.). La sua formazione è stata progressiva, dapprima con l’istituzione formale del corpo dei pretoriani, poi di quello degli urbaniciani (nati da una costola delle coorti pretorie), quindi dei Vigiles e successivamente dell’unità denominata “Equites Singulares Augusti”; in sostanza diverse forze per compiti specifici. Come “guarnigione” (termine moderno usato per definire questo insieme di unità) la loro storia dura circa tre secoli e mezzo, terminando apparentemente nel 312 quando Costantino sciolse sia il corpo dei pretoriani sia quello degli “Equites”. COORTI PRETORIE Le coorti pretorie nascono tra il 26 o il 37 a.C. quando Ottaviano – appena salito al trono imperiale – formalizza delle precedenti uniti che avevano la funzione di guardie personali di comandati, pretori (da cui assumono la denominazione, essendo la forza militare che accompagnavano nelle campagne questi magistrati, durante la Repubblica) e altre cariche di rango. Inizialmente vengono istituite 12 coorti pretorie (di circa 500 uomini) sotto il comando di un prefetto del pretorio (diventeranno due a partire dal 2. a.C.); intorno al 13 a.C. il numero delle coorti sarà ridotto a 9. Questa riduzione risponde a due fattori: 1) Mantenere il numero di coorti al di sotto di quello (10) che avrebbe composto una legione (in quanto una vecchia legge vietava la presenza di legioni dentro le mura di Roma); 2) Creare in contemporanea il corpo delle Coorti Urbane, al servizio del Senato e sotto il controllo del prefetto dell’Urbe), un’operazione dal sapore strategico volta a bilanciare un eventuale ( e di fatto poi dimostratosi concreto) strapotere delle coorti pretorie.

Arrive at the Corinth Canal for a brief stop and then continue on to the Acropolis of Corinth. Acro-corinth is the citadel of Corinth. It is situated to the southwest of the ancient city and rises to an elevation of 1883 ft. [574 m.]. Today it is surrounded by walls that are about 1.85 mi. [3 km.] long. The foundations of the fortifications are ancient—going back to the Hellenistic Period. The current walls were built and rebuilt by the Byzantines, Franks, Venetians, and Ottoman Turks. Climb up and visit the fortress. Then proceed to the Ancient city of Corinth. It was to this megalopolis where the apostle Paul came and worked, established a thriving church, subsequently sending two of his epistles now part of the New Testament. Here, we see all of the sites associated with his ministry: the Agora, the Temple of Apollo, the Roman Odeon, the Bema and Gallio’s Seat. The small local archaeological museum here is an absolute must! In Romans 16:23 Paul mentions his friend Erastus and • • we will see an inscription to him at the site. In the afternoon we will drive to GREECE CRETE TURKEY Nafplion for check-in at hotel followed by dinner and overnight.
