There is one line of text around the edge of the stamp, and in the centre is a canine animal (interpreted by Dressel 1891 as a wolf, whilst Lanciani 1868: p.174 considered it to be a dog), walking to the right, with one front paw raised. It seems likely that it should be viewed as a wolf (lupus), punning upon the name of its producer (Bodel 2005). -

Imperial Matchmaker
IMPERIAL MATCHMAKER The Involvement of the Roman Emperor in the Arrangement of Marriages between Client Kings Matthew William Shillam MA (Classics) ANU 2007 A thesis submitted for the degree of PhD Ancient History of the University of New England, June 2016. Acknowledgements I wish to first acknowledge the work of two giants in this field without which this thesis could not be written: David Braund and the late Richard Sullivan. I wish to further thank Prof. Braund for his time, encouragement and illuminating discussions for the short time I was ensconced at Exeter University – his guidance was invaluable for the progression of this thesis. I would also like to thank my supervisor, Associate-Professor Matt Dillon for his encouragement, humour and unfailing support – his enthusiastic reassurance gave me the confidence to convert my blatherings into a thesis. My assistant supervisor, Dr Sarah Lawrence also requires my thanks for her time, effort and, particularly, diligence. I would also like to acknowledge the generosity of the Keith and Dorothy Mackie Scholarship (and the University of New England) for providing me with the funds to travel to Exeter University to further research my thesis and to discuss not only with Prof. Braund but also Prof. Daniel Ogden who generously provided me with his insights, particularly for Chapter 1. I would also like to acknowledge the splendid service at the Department of Coins & Medals at the British Museum, as well as the similar departments at the Ashmolean and Fitzwilliam Museum, for allowing me access to study (and appreciate) some of the unique coins issued by Roman client kings. -
Coins of the Rulers of Cimmerian Bosporus Found in Poland1
CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Jagiellonian Univeristy Repository Tom XIII Kraków 2018 JAROSŁAW BODZEK Jagiellonian University RENATA MADYDA-LEGUTKO Jagiellonian University Coins of the Rulers of Cimmerian Bosporus Found in Poland1 ABSTRACT: Among the finds in Poland of ancient coins struck in the provinces of the Imperium Romanum or in the empire’s neighboring states, a small but 53 interesting group consists of coins from the so-called Kingdom of the Cimmerian Bosporus. These are coins that were struck between the 1st century BC and the 4th century AD. We know of six such finds from the lands of present-day Poland. Four of these coins were found before the mid-20th century. Of these four, two were found in the 19th century – one in Staniątki and one in Zarzecze; the third was found in the 1930s in Glinik Mariampolski, Gorlice, though it was not published until 1973; and the fourth was found before 1953 near Zabełcze, Nowy Sącz. In the present age, in which metal detectors have entered into common usage, one Bosporan coin has been discovered in Skłóty, Kutno District, and one in Gąski, Inowrocław District. They come from an area in which there were settlements of the Przeworsk culture or from the lands of the Polish Western Carpathians in which there were settlements of the Púchov culture and then, later, of the Przeworsk culture. All the Bosporan coins 1 The present study has been prepared as part of the project titled “Finds of the Roman Coins from the territory of Poland and lands historically connected with Poland”, funded with resources from the Ministry of Science and Higher Education’s National Programme for the Development of the Humanities, grant no. -

Syme, ‘The proconsuls of Asia under Antoninus Pius’, ZPE 51 (1983) 271–290 = id., RP IV 325–346, at 275 = 330).1 I Two small conjoining pieces of bronze were found in 1986 at Bad Wimpfen in Baden-Württemberg, a former military vicus, later chief town of the Upper German civitas Alisinensium. They belonged to a military diploma for a veteran of cohors II Hispanorum; and the consular date is preserved, P. Sufenate [ ]/ Ti. Claudio Attico [ ].2 This pair had already occurred, it turned out, on another diploma fragment, from Norican Faviana (Mautern in Austria; CIL XVI 174), issued under Hadrian no earlier than 128 (he is p(ater) p(atriae) ): [ ] Vero Ti. Claudio [ ]. A conflated text produces P. Sufenate Vero Ti. Claudio Attico [Herode cos.]: [Herode] can be restored because the spacing on the Wimpfen diploma shows that a further cognomen for the second consul must have been engraved below [Vero]. This Ti. Claudius Atticus, there can be no doubt, was the father of the sophist Herodes Atticus. His colleague, P. Sufenas Verus, was one of the legates of Lycia-Pamphylia named in the Opramoas dossier;3 this, newly combined with other documents, establishes that Sufenas’ governorship began in 129 and ended in 132. He was probably consul at the end of his term. This is confirmed by M. -

208 3.18 Seljuk Introduction: 1038-1118 AD Seljuqs Are Turkic
208 3.18 Seljuk Introduction: 1038-1118 AD Seljuqs are Turkic nomadic origins, who ruled the Eastern Islamic region. Starting from Central Asian to Persia, conquering eastern Anatolia and finally settling in Isfahan. After the Seljuks defeat of Ghaznavids Dynasty in 1040 AD and demolishing the Buyid Dynasty in Bagdad they have established themselves as new protectors of Abbasid Caliphate in 1055 AD. Within fifty years, the Seljuqs created a vast empire, encompassing all of Iran, Iraq, and [1] (Cavendish, 2006) much of Anatolia [1]. By the end of the tenth century, Seljuq P. 364 realm dissolved into separate territories governed by different branches of the dynasty. The main branch of Seljuq called, Great Seljuqs, maintained control over Iran. Under Seljuq sultanate, Iran had a period of material, cultural wealth, creativity in art and [2] (Bosworth, 2007) p. 280. architecture [2] [3]. Turkic Seljuq adopted and supported local Perso-Islamic traditions. Seljuq art is recognized for the blend of [3] (Britannica, 2015) Persian, Islamic, and Central Asian-Turkic elements together. During this period, the arts of Iran gained distinction in Islamic world. Beginning in the second half of the twelfths century, the art of inlaying bronze or brass objects with precious metals such as copper, silver, and gold became prominent in the Eastern Iranian province of Khorasan. The Seljuqs were great patrons of architecture. An unprecedented number of madrasas50 were erected throughout the Seljuq realm. Most notable, however, was the Madrasa Nizamiya, founded in Baghdad by the great Seljuq, Nizam Al Mulk, who ruled during 1063–1092AD to support Sunni51 education.
