    Phasis 8, 2005 Ekaterine Kobakhidze (Tbilisi) THE ISSUE OF DESCENT OF THE DEITY MARS An attempt to identify the functions of Roman deity Mars has been made in many research works.1 Particular interest towards this god is motivated by his participation in so-called Roman genealogical myths. The father of Romulus and Remus, the main character of one of the earliest patterns of the surviving folk poetry, has for a long time remained in science in the shade of the Greek god of war Ares, and was perceived as his Roman interpretation. Now "justice is restored", and under the influence of Greek mythology, he re-acquired the role of the god of war for the second time, though his primary function has not been definitely identified. I believe that obtaining further insight into the essence of the problem is impossible without taking into consideration the "Italian context" of the Ro- man deity. In this case I mean the pantheon of the peoples living on the Apennines peninsula and participation of Mars‟ namesake gods in the forma- tion of functions of the Roman deity. These mythological characters and gods are: of Marsians – Marsia, Mar- sos, of Auzons – Mares, and Etruscan – Maris. Let us consider the existing information on each of the deities, which in first two cases is fully based on literary sources. 1 Georg Wissowa, Religion u. Kultur d. Römer, 2.

    Reading for Monday 4/23/12 History of Rome You Will Find in This Packet

    Reading for Monday 4/23/12 A e History of Rome A You will find in this packet three different readings. 1) Augustus’ autobiography. which he had posted for all to read at the end of his life: the Res Gestae (“Deeds Accomplished”). 2) A few passages from Vergil’s Aeneid (the epic telling the story of Aeneas’ escape from Troy and journey West to found Rome. The passages from the Aeneid are A) prophecy of the glory of Rome told by Jupiter to Venus (Aeneas’ mother). B) A depiction of the prophetic scenes engraved on Aeneas’ shield by the god Vulcan. The most important part of this passage to read is the depiction of the Battle of Actium as portrayed on Aeneas’ shield. (I’ve marked the beginning of this bit on your handout). Of course Aeneas has no idea what is pictured because it is a scene from the future... Take a moment to consider how the Battle of Actium is portrayed by Vergil in this scene! C) In this scene, Aeneas goes down to the Underworld to see his father, Anchises, who has died. While there, Aeneas sees the pool of Romans waiting to be born. Anchises speaks and tells Aeneas about all of his descendants, pointing each of them out as they wait in line for their birth. 3) A passage from Horace’s “Song of the New Age”: Carmen Saeculare Important questions to ask yourself: Is this poetry propaganda? What do you take away about how Augustus wanted to be viewed, and what were some of the key themes that the poets keep repeating about Augustus or this new Golden Age? Le’,s The Au,qustan Age 195.

Printed in Croatia ISSN 1331-5609; UDC: 33+65 Urban Dipoles in Greece: Economic Development Opportunities for Larissa-Volos Dipole in Thessaly Region Theodore Metaxas* Abstract: The article attempts to illustrate the significance of the existence of co-operation and in tandem development of an urban dipole, as well as the impact of such a dipole development on each of the two cities and on the greater region they belong. For this reason, the article focuses on a specific case of two medium size cities in Greece, Larissa and Volos, which activate in the same region by taking development actions complementary to one another. The aim of the article is to define the prospects for economic development of this dipole and examine its dynamic in relation to other cities in Greece, by using original data derived by a recent empirical research conducted among foreign firms of the region which have established in the dipole area the last 15 years. Keywords: urban dipoles, economic development, Greece JEL Classification: R11, R12, R13 Introduction Cities are the most dynamic centres of economic transformations in a global level (Harris 1997). The main argument arises through the analysis of the international practice is that regional competitiveness / attractiveness presupposes the economic development and vigorousness of the regions main cities (Cheshire and Gordon 1998; Cuadrado-Roura and Rubalcaba- Bermejo, 1998; Cuadrado-Roura, 2001). This conclusion is harmonized with the basic principles for the competition between cities, as they referred in the European Spatial Development Perspective (ESDP, 1999).

A Near EasTern EThnic ElemenT Among The ETruscan EliTe? by Jodi Magness INTRODUCTION:THEPROBLEMOFETRUSCANORIGINS 1 “Virtually all archaeologists now agree that the evidence is overwhelmingly in favour of the “indigenous” theory of Etruscan origins: the development of Etruscan culture has to be understood within an evolutionary sequence of social elaboration in Etruria.” 2 “The archaeological evidence now available shows no sign of any invasion, migra- Tion, or colonisaTion in The eighTh cenTury... The formaTion of ETruscan civilisaTion occurred in ITaly by a gradual process, The final sTages of which can be documenTed in The archaeo- logical record from The ninTh To The sevenTh cenTuries BC... For This reason The problem of ETruscan origins is nowadays (righTly) relegaTed To a fooTnoTe in scholarly accounTs.” 3 he origins of the Etruscans have been the subject of debate since classical antiqui- Tty. There have traditionally been three schools of thought (or “models” or “the- ories”) regarding Etruscan origins, based on a combination of textual, archaeo- logical, and linguistic evidence.4 According to the first school of thought, the Etruscans (or Tyrrhenians = Tyrsenoi, Tyrrhenoi) originated in the eastern Mediterranean.

    Per La Storia Degli Etruschi

    PER LA STORIA DEGLI ETRUSCHI I. - CLUSINI VETERES e CLUSINI NOVI Plinio (N. H., Ili, 5, 52) elencando, in ordine approssimati- vamente alfabetico, le località e le repartizioni dell’Etruria dei tempi suoi, e venendo a parlare, dopo la zona marittima, di quella interna (« mtus »), ha : « Cortonenses, Capenates, Clusini novi, Clusini veteres, Fiorentini ». Questa distinzione dei Clusini in veteres e novi, può, presa a sè, rimanere di dubbio significato, per- chè l’analogia ci insegna che, teoricamente, essa potrebbe spiegarsi sia colla sovrapposizione o giustapposizione in uno stesso centro o in centri attigui di due o più elementi di popolazione (come si suole credere per gli A.rretini veteres, Fidentiores e lulienses, di cui parla Plinio stesso) ; sia con la coesistenza di due centri abitati, la popo- lazione di uno dei quali, in un qualche tempo, sia stata in parte trapiantata nel secondo, senza che il primo scomparisse (come per Aufidena, per Fabrateria, e, rimanendo in Etruria, per Faleri, Volsini e Surrina); sia infine con la coesistenza di due centri, lon- tani fra di loro, e casualmente omonimi, che con quegli epiteti si volevano differenziare, o perchè sorti realmente in età diversa, o perchè conosciuti dai Romani in età successive (cfr. Carthago e Chartago nova; Bovianum vetus e Undecumanorum etc., e Neapolis di fronte a Cuma). Che una delle sedi dei Clusini corrisponda all’attuale Chiusi di Val di Chiana non è dubbio, sia per la tradizione storica romana che, almeno dai tempi della III Sannitica in poi, vi allude con precisi riferimenti topografici, sia per le epigrafi latine in essa rin- venute, che parlano di ordo Clusinorum, populus Clusìnus, respu- blica.
