Dartmouth Civilizations and Faiths in Transition 2021 JOUR NEYS Beyond the or dinar y CIVILIZATIONS AND FAITHS IN TRANSITION Paganism, Judaism and the Origins of Christianity in the Greco-Roman World Library of Celcus, Ephesus September 29 – October 12, 2020 t the height of the Pax Romana, between the reigns of Augustus and Trajan, the Roman Empire stood at the pinnacle of its glory, Adominating almost two million square miles, from Hadrian’s Wall in northern England to the Caspian Sea in Asia. Roman law and Roman culture to a great extent based on the culture of ancient Greece, knew no rival, and during this tranquil period, Christianity was born. Eventually, Rome declined and its empire disappeared. But much of Rome’s legacy – its language, law, literature, and architecture, was preserved for eternity, in no small way thanks to Christianity. And Christianity might have remained obscure had not a Jew named Paul carried the new faith to the greatest cities of the Empire. Paul of Tarsus incorporated tenets of Greek classical tradition and Judaism into the The ancient theater of Ephesus new faith. Our journey is designed to explore sites that are richly associated with some of the most dramatic moments in the history of the rise of Christianity set in the context of the Greco-Roman culture of Paul’s life and times. In Greece, we will explore cosmopolitan Thessaloniki, the biblical Thessalonica, where Paul founded a Christian community in mid-first century A.D.; ancient Philippi, an important stop in Paul’s apostolic mission; and Veria (the biblical Berea), where Paul spent time. We will also visit Athens, where in A.D. 51 Paul preached on “the Unknown God,” and Corinth, where Paul spent 18 months. In Ephesus, Turkey, one of the world’s greatest ancient cities, we will walk the same street Paul walked and sit in the vast theater where the Ephesians rioted against Paul.

Grazing time, resting and ruminating time, distance travel and air temperature in relation to pasturing month and altitude were examined. It was remarked significant effect (P<0.001) of the pasturing month on grazing time, and resting time of sheep. Mean grazing time was greater in the lowland (315.71 min/day ±4.57) than in the mountainous pasture (283.57 min/day ±4.79). On the contrary, the resting time and the distance travel of sheep were shorter in the lowland pasture. The resting time had significant (P<0.01) positive relationship to air temperature (r=0.777). Keywords: grazing activity, vegetative period, sheep breed »Serres«, lowland pasture, mountainous pasture, northern Greece Zusammenfassung Weideverhalten der griechischen Schafrasse »Serres« auf Tiefland- und Bergweide in Nordgriechenland Im Jahr 2008 erfolgten in den Monaten April bis Oktober Beobachtungen des Weideverhalten von Schafen unter den Bedingungen des Tieflandes als auch im Gebirge Nordgriechenlands.

  • Royal Power, Law and Justice in Ancient Macedonia Joseph Roisman
    Royal Power, Law and Justice in Ancient Macedonia Joseph Roisman In his speech On the Crown Demosthenes often lionizes himself by suggesting that his actions and policy required him to overcome insurmountable obstacles. Thus he contrasts Athens’ weakness around 346 B.C.E. with Macedonia’s strength, and Philip’s II unlimited power with the more constrained and cumbersome decision-making process at home, before asserting that in spite of these difficulties he succeeded in forging later a large Greek coalition to confront Philip in the battle of Chaeronea (Dem.18.234–37). [F]irst, he (Philip) ruled in his own person as full sovereign over subservient people, which is the most important factor of all in waging war . he was flush with money, and he did whatever he wished. He did not announce his intentions in official decrees, did not deliberate in public, was not hauled into the courts by sycophants, was not prosecuted for moving illegal proposals, was not accountable to anyone. In short, he was ruler, commander, in control of everything.1 For his depiction of Philip’s authority Demosthenes looks less to Macedonia than to Athens, because what makes the king powerful in his speech is his freedom from democratic checks. Nevertheless, his observations on the Macedonian royal power is more informative and helpful than Aristotle’s references to it in his Politics, though modern historians tend to privilege the philosopher for what he says or even does not say on the subject. Aristotle’s seldom mentions Macedonian kings, and when he does it is for limited, exemplary purposes, lumping them with other kings who came to power through benefaction and public service, or who were assassinated by men they had insulted.2 Moreover, according to Aristotle, the extreme of tyranny is distinguished from ideal kingship (pambasilea) by the fact that tyranny is a government that is not called to account.

  • A Report on Preventing Any Further Desecration of the Jewish Cemetery of Thessaloniki, Greece Findings, Concerns and Recommendations
    A Report on Preventing any Further Desecration of the Jewish Cemetery of Thessaloniki, Greece Findings, Concerns and Recommendations Prepared for Asra Kadisha, Conference of Academicians for the Protection of Jewish Cemeteries and the Central Rabbinical Congress July 2008 By David Rubel Jewish Cemetery of Thessaloniki, Greece Findings, Concerns and Recommendations 2 BACKGROUND 1. The old Jewish cemetery of Thessaloniki is being desecrated by construction under the authority of the City of Thessaloniki and Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. The cemetery was once the largest Jewish cemetery in the world and is located in a city that was home to one of longest continuous Jewish communities only to be destroyed during the Nazi occupation in World War II. The Asra Kadisha (Committee for the Preservation of Gravesites), the leadership of the Jewish community of Greece, as well as other Jewish organizations dedicated to the preservation of cemeteries abroad, have all strongly protested the desecration of the Jewish cemetery as violation of their religious beliefs. All of these organizations have stated that construction is taking place inside the boundaries of the Jewish cemetery..All construction work of a new Metro station and a campus building should be halted immediately. CURRENT DESECRETION 2. Until an authoritative and unbiased map is finally produced of the Jewish cemetery of Thessaloniki, all construction in contested areas should stop immediately. An area of land with such great religious and historical significance deserves a full and exhaustive research undertaking. A professional land survey and thorough historical investigation are essential. Just from the research that we have conducted on the cemetery, it is abundantly clear that there is compelling evidence that significantly differs from the United States Consulate General Office in Thessaloniki (which is based on mapping from the Survey Office of Thessaloniki in 1936 and cannot be judged an objective party).

    The trail from Palaia Kavala to Kavala This fascinating trail links the settlement of Palaia Kavala with the city of Kavala. This is a relatively gentle 10.5km trail which crosses a typical Mediterranean landscape of kermes (downy) oaks, junipers, elms, maples and oriental hornbeams. It winds along streams with lush vegetation and water dominating throughout. The trail is well signposted and provides many viewpoints with resting places allowing for a not-too-strenuous hike along a route of particular environmental and historical interest. The first part of the trail is about 5.5km long, leading to Mana tou nerou (= mother of the water ) which provided the main source of water for Kavala over the centuries. The second section of 5km, continuing from Mana tou nerou to Agios Konstantinos in the northern outskirts of the town, has long been known as “the waterway”. This follows the water channel, which conveyed water to the rocky peninsula of Panaghia , where the historic part of the city is situated. The trail crosses bridges, fountains and purifying cisterns of the medieval aqueduct of Kavala, highlighting a centuries-old water route and a great historic public construction. 1 Palaia Kavala, the starting point of the trail, has enormous historical and environmental resonance, being in close proximity to several archaeological sites such as Philippi and the prehistoric Dikili Tash . The trail’s end, Kavala, with the Kamares , the Panaghia peninsula and the castle further emphasise its cultural importance. 2 PALAIA KAVALA Distance : 5,667.5 m Time : 2-2.5 hrs Difficulty rate : easy MANA TOU NEROU From Palaia Kavala to ...”Mana tou nerou” Palaia Kavala, in the foothills of the Lekani mountain range, is the starting point of the trail and can be reached either from the Kavala-Drama road by following the signs for Zygos and Palaia Kavala or, alternatively, from the Kavala-Xanthi road by turning leſt at the Chalkero junction and following the signs for Palaia Kavala.
