  • The History of Roman Durrës (I-IV E.S.)
    E-ISSN 2281-4612 Academic Journal of Interdisciplinary Studies Vol 4 No 2 S2 ISSN 2281-3993 MCSER Publishing, Rome-Italy August 2015 The History of Roman Durrës (I-IV E.S.) Arlind Kasa PhD Candidate, Faculty of Business, “Aleksander Moisiu” University, Durrës, Albania Email: [email protected] Doi:10.5901/ajis.2015.v4n2s2p28 Abstract The main purpose of this presentation is to review and reappraise of the ancients fonts with new archaeological found discovered recently in Durrës, in these fifteen years. The city of Durrës in ancient periods was named Epidamnos, after Dyrrachium in Roman period and now Durrës. I will discuss for the roman colonization in Dyrrachium, when he was founded, why was changed the name in roman period, why Dyrrachium lost his independence and what had happened in Dyrrachium during Imperial Roman Period based in new archaeological found that had helped to reappraise of ancient authors. Keywords: hellen colonization of Epidamnos, Illirian people in Epidamnos, Dyrrachium, Imperial Roman Period. 1. Introduction Epidamnos-Dyrrachium were the names that Durrës had in ancient periods. The researchers are in one mind that these two names tell two different part of the city. Thucydidis had told us that Epidamnos was founded by Greek colons from Corcyra and Corinthin 627 B. C (Thycydides, 2002). Another question for to discuss is: Epidamnos and Dyrrachium were one or two different city? Today exist three theories that treated these problem. The first, is that Epidamnos and Dyrrachium was an only city, which in early period was called Epidamnos and when Durrës was invaded from Rome, they changed the name in Dyrrachium because the name Epidamnos was sinister for roman than remembers the word damnus (bad) (Melae, 2002; Plinus, 2002; Appiani, 2002).

The Main Chapel of the Durres Amphitheater: Decoration and Chronology Abstract The amphitheater at Durres in central Albania is one of the larger and better preserved amphitheaters of the Roman world, as well as one of the eastern-most examples of the amphitheater form. Nonetheless, it is not for its Roman architecture that the building is best known, but its later Christian decoration, specifically, a series of mosaics which adorn the walls of a small chapel inserted into the amphitheater's Roman fabric. First published by Vangel Toçi in 1971, these mosaics were introduced to a wider scholarly audience through their inclusion in Robin Cormack's groundbreaking 1985 volume Writing in Gold.

  • ROMAN ROADS of ASIA MINOR the Earliest Roman, Paved Roads in Asia Minor
    PRE- AND EARLY -ROMAN ROADS OF ASIA MINOR The earliest Roman, paved roads in Asia Minor In another article in this series (PERRAM. Asia Minor, Greece and the Development of Roman Roads in Italy) I have attempted to discuss, inter alia, the pre-Roman origins of the Via Egnatia in Macedonia and the subsequent development of Roman roads in Asia Minor. It is against the backround of road-history in the northern Aegean and western Asia Minor that I wish to set a discussion of the Republican and Augustan roads and milestones in the provinces which emerged from the territories held by the Pergamene kingdom at the death of Attalus III in 133 B.C. The origins of the Via Egnatia are apposite to the creation of a Roman road-system in western Asia Minor. At least one road through E Macedonia into Thrace had been made by Philip V in the 2n^ century B.C. (Livy 39. 39. 10), perhaps the same road as that used by Xerxes in 480 B.C. (Hdt. 7. 107-129). It was probably the predecessor of the Via Egnatia, the road which was measured and provided with milestones by the Romans (Strabo 7.7.4, C 322) after Macedonia became a Roman province in 146 B.C. Did a similar order of events take place in western Asia Minor? Namely, (1) the development of a fifth century, Achaemenid road net-work, followed (2) by Hellenistic roads which were later (3) adopted by the Roman administration in the years 128-126 B.C. after the creation of the province of Asia.

  • Merrill F. Unger, "Archaeology and Paul's Campaign at Philippi,"
    Archaeology and Paul's Campaign at Philippi Merrill F. Unger N THE' journey to European Macedonia Paul's ship, Luke records, touched the Samothrace, an Aegean island. OHere was the place where Demetrius Poliorcetes, "the taker of cities" in the fourth century B. C., set up the statue of the Winged Victory, which was discovered there in 1863, and has since adorned the Louvre in Paris as one of its most superb pieces. It may be that Paul saw this splendid monument of Greek art and religion. But if he did "it meant to him only another evidence of the triumphant idolatry he was working to overthrow." 1 The 1'75-mile trip between Troas and NeapoIis (modern Kavalla) on the Macedonian mainland, was made without incident and required two days, including the stopover at Samothrace, about midway across. At Neapolis, the port of Philippi and the terminus of the great Egnatian Road, Paul and his group landed. Situated on a promontory with the Aegean on two sides, its position was important as a con­ necting link by sea with Asia Minor and by land with Europe. The latter connection was made by the Egnatian Way, which ran through nearby Philippi and thence across Macedonia to Dyrrachium (Durazzo) opposite Brundisium in Italy (across the Adriatic), where the Appian Way connected with Rome. In Neapo1is a typical motley array of races and languages, characteristic of port towns, reigned. This ,vas to be expected in a town that was the first point of contact for traffic that flowed between two continents. lEdgar Goodspeed, Paul~ 1947, p.
