  • Ancient Roman Civilization
    ANCIENT ROMAN CIVILIZATION HANDOUT PACKAGE FALL 2009 HISTORY 4322/6322 Dr. Peter J. Brand 1 MOST ANCIENT ROME: ORIGINS AND BEGINNINGS Legend of Trojan origins: dates back at least to 5th century BCE, when Greek historian Hellanicus refers to it. Trojan hero Aeneas, in flight from Troy, lands on Italian coast and intermarries with Latin ruling family. His descendants are Romulus and Remus. Aeneas himself was worshipped in Rome under the label Iuppiter Indiges (“native Jupiter”). She-Wolf Legend: current in Italy by late 5th or earlier 4th century, though not clearly with reference to Rome. A statue of babies Romulus and Remus with she-wolf is known to have been set up in Rome as early as 296 BCE. “Latial”/ “Villanovan” settlement on Palatine Hill, which Romans regarded as site of Romulus’ original settlement Sabine component of Roman population: (1) early inhabitants of Quirinal Hill (2) Term for people “Quirites,” originally referring to Sabines, later used for Romans as group. (3) Legend of Sabine women probably is ex-post-facto explanation of Sabine component in Roman makeup. Foundation of Rome: traditionally agreed as being April 21, 753; Roman time-reckoning was generally in terms of so many years “since the founding of the city” (ab urbe condita, abbreviated AUC) Etruscan kings of Rome: Tarquinius Priscus (# 5) and Tarquin the Proud (# 7). The traditional date of his expulsion is 509 BCE. The Republic was believed to have begun immediately afterwards, but this is complicated by Lars Porsenna (of Clusium): attacked, and probably took Rome after Tarquin the Proud was expelled, but did not reinstall him.

  • Thoughts About the Horse Games of the Roman Army and the Origins of Imperial Mask Helmets
    international journal of military history and historiography 40 (2020) 50-73 IJMH brill.com/ijmh The Pantomime of War: Thoughts About the Horse Games of the Roman Army and the Origins of Imperial Mask Helmets Maxime Petitjean Sorbonne University, Paris, France [email protected] Abstract This paper explores the origins of the horse games (hippika gymnasia) of the Roman imperial army. It argues that the equestrian displays lengthily described by Arrian in his tactical treatise were borrowed from the Gallic and Iberian Celts, who formed the most important part of the Roman auxiliary cavalry at the end of the Republic and at the beginning of the Principate. Mask helmets were worn by the most renowned horsemen during these games. The first examples of such masks in Roman context can be found on triumphal representations celebrating victories over Celtiberian or Gallic foes. The evidence suggests that they were initially made of organic materials, like the over-modelled or plastered skull masks that could adorn public monuments in pre-Roman Gaul. From the end of the 1st century BC onward, they began to adopt the form of full metal helmets and were progressively adapted to the Greco-Roman taste. The idea that the hippika gymnasia were borrowed from the Roman equestrian parade called the lusus Troiae and that mask helmets were part of an old Italic tradi- tion should, therefore, be abandoned. Keywords Roman army – Roman cavalry – mask helmets – horse games – hippika gymnasia – lusus Troiae – headhunting – body mutilation – Roman pantomime

Thesis Examination Committee Abstract The objective of this thesis is to fully deconstruct and isolate the considerable Samnite contributions to the Roman state during the period of the Samnite Wars. Although the literary sources have espoused a Samnitic origin for many Roman institutions, very little academic focus has been directed towards these claims. Scholars have generally tended to focus on one or two of these claims only as part of a larger argument.

Lisäksi tutkielmassa selvitetään, kuinka roomalaiset hoitivat ja kohtelivat kotieläimi- ään, ja millainen kotieläinten rooli oli roomalaisten elämässä ja yhteiskunnassa. Tutkimalla näi- tä asioita, valotetaan samalla roomalaisten suhdetta kotieläimiinsä ja kotieläimiin kohdistuvia moraalikäsityksiä. Tutkimuksen alkuperäislähteenä on laaja valikoima Rooman ajan latinankie- listä kirjallisuutta, jota tutkitaan teksti- ja diskurssianalyysin keinoin. Historiantutkimuksen ken- tällä tutkimus voidaan sijoittaa aate- ja kulttuurihistorian alueille. Tutkielman alussa käsittellään sellaisia kotieläimiä, joita roomalaiset pitivät selkeästi hyö- tynäkökohta mielessään. Näitä olivat työ- ja tuotantoeläimet sekä tuotantoeläimien joukosta valitut uhrieläimet. Tutkielman loppupuoliskolla keskitytään sen sijaan sellaisiin kotieläimiin, jotka

Supplying and equipping such a massive force involved a logistical network on an unprecedented scale. These professional soldiers were stationed in every corner of the empire for decades at a time, serving as the defensive bastion against the “barbarians” beyond the frontiers.
