THE POLITICAL CHANGES in IONIA AFTER the REVOLT ßß42 And APPENDIX 11 THE POLITICAL CHANGES IN IONIA AFTER THE REVOLT §§42 and 43.3 throw important light on the Persian attitude to their subject peoples in the west, and certainly on Artaphrenes as a shrewd administrator. The revolt had taken six years and considerable mil- itary effort to suppress. Three political changes are now made, two by the satrap, the third by Mardonius. Another account of it sur- vives, DS 10.25.4, where the third is also ascribed to Artaphrenes: ÑEkata›ow ı MilÆsiow presbeutØw épestalm°now ÍpÚ t«n ÉI≈nvn, ±r≈thse diÉ ∂n afit¤an épiste› aÈto›w ı ÉArtaf°rnhw. toË d¢ efipÒntow, mÆpote Íp¢r œn katapolemhy°ntew kak«w ¶payon mnhsikakÆsvsin, OÈkoËn, ¶fhsen, efi tÚ pepony°nai kak«w tØn épist¤an peripoie›, tÚ paye›n êra eÔ poiÆsei tåw pÒleiw P°rsaiw eÈnooÊsaw. épodejãmenow d¢ tÚ =hy¢n ı ÉArtaf°rnhw ép°dvke toÁw nÒmouw ta›w pÒlesi ka‹ taktoÁw fÒrouw katå dÊnamin §p°tajen.1 Artaphrenes had to reimpose his authority, but also had the practical interest of ensuring stability, particularly economic stability, which in turn meant that tribute could flow in: cf Starr (1975) 82, Briant (1996) 511, and other references cited on êndrew, §19.3. We may accept §42.1, that he summoned representatives from each polis, in view of the arbitration requirement; but we can accept Diodorus to the extent that Hecataeus was the, or one of the, representative(s) from Miletus: he had influence there, and could be presented to the Persians as someone who had not fully supported the revolt (5.36, 125; pp. 53, 54, 56 with n. 191, 62). Herodotus’ égg°louw means ambassadors or representatives (Powell sv); if making Hecataeus a 1 “Hecataeus of Miletus was sent as ambassador by the Ionians, and asked why Artaphrenes mistrusted them. He replied, lest they should remember what they suffered after their defeat. Well, said Hecataeus, if suffering ill treatment creates mistrust, being well treated will make the poleis well disposed to the Persians. Artaphrenes took the point; he gave the cities their laws back, and assessed fixed tribute according to their ability to pay”. For most of book 10, Diodorus probably used Ephoros; Ephoros may have got the anecdote from a äVroi of Miletus or else- where in Ionia; outside Ionia the events would not be well known: even so, at least here, Mardonius has dropped out. 534 appendix 11 sole presbeutÆw, ambassador, is more honorific, it reflects the trans- mission of the anecdote, not its substance.2 But Artaphrenes was also a realist, and behind the story (however much improved in the telling) we may detect a willingness at least to listen to the grievances of the Greeks; if he could meet them consistently with his own policy, it was conducive to stability. Herodotus seems alive to this. To his audience, it might be paradoxical that the Persians were behaving well towards the defeated Ionians; but what Artaphrenes did was xrÆsima kãrta, and efirhna›a.3 But he also exercised his authority: he compelled (±nãgkase) the Greeks to arbitrate, and determined (¶taje) their taxes. 1 The arbitration requirement of §42.1 Artaphrenes perceived f°rein ka‹ êgein, plundering,4 as a problem. That conditions were unsettled in the aftermath of the revolt can be seen from several passages: the belief in Zancle that Ionia was a source of manpower (note to §§22–24); the guard on Chios (cf on frourª, §26.1); Histiaeus’ ability to recruit young men (see on ÉI≈nvn, §28.1), and generally operate as he did at Thasos and Atarneus, §28; and the Thasians strengthening their walls, and building ships, §46.2. Formally, plundering could occur in four situations: l˙ste¤a, piracy or freebooting; fighting between poleis; cross-border trespassing; and sÊlh, the legally recognised right of seizure of goods by way of reprisal.5 No system of arbitration could stop piracy; though news 2 Although it is presented as an ex post facto piece of biography, an aphorism attaching to a wise man, the basic accuracy of the anecdote is accepted by Tozzi (1963) 320–1. Of course the Ionians were in no position to make demands. 3 For another possible occasion when Artaphrenes could learn about the Greeks’ views, see Appx 1 para 13. The practical approach of the Persians towards defeated peoples (as opposed to their rebellious leaders) is noted on êndrew, §19.3, and kakÚn oÈd°n, §20. 4 For its meaning, carrying off moveable property and driving off animals, see on sunyÆkaw, §42.1. 5 The noun sÊlh is rare in the singular (cf LSJ sv); sulãv came to connote exercising this right, though in Herodotus it always means robbing or desecrating temples (§§19.3, 101.3, 118.1). It originally meant that a man of polis A who had suffered loss in a raid from polis B could raid the territory of polis B for recom- pense; as trade developed it was adapted to a wider concept of self-help: if a man of polis A was owed (or claimed to be owed) money by a man of polis B, he could seize goods of any citizen of B either as recompense or as security for his debt: see.

Kholod HE GRANTS of cities and lands to foreigners, including Greeks, who had provided and/or would in the future T provide important services to the Persian kings and satraps were a fairly common practice in the Achaemenid Empire.1 A portion of evidence for such grants concerns Asia Minor. For example, Cyrus the Great is said to have granted seven cities in Asia Minor to his friend Pytharchus of Cyzicus.2 The Spartan king Demaratus, after he had been allowed to dwell in Persia, received from Darius I and probably then from Xerxes lands and cities, among them Teuthrania and Halisarna, where his descendants, the Demaratides, still were in power at the beginning of the fourth century.3 Gongylus of Eretria, who had been expelled from his home city as an adherent of the Persians, received from Xerxes the cities Gambrium, Palaegambrium, 1 On these grants see in detail M.

    “The Skeleton of the State:” The Fiscal Politics of Pergamon, 188-133 B.C.E. By Noah Kaye A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Ancient History and Mediterranean Archaeology University of California-Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Emily Mackil Professor Erich Gruen Professor Nikolaos Papazarkadas Professor Andrew Stewart Professor Dylan Sailor Fall 2012 Abstract “The Skeleton of the State:” the Fiscal Politics of Pergamon, 188-133, B.C.E. by Noah Kaye Doctor of Philosophy in Ancient History and Mediterranean Archaeology University of California, Berkeley Professor Emily Mackil, Chair In 188 B.C.E., a Roman commission awarded most of Anatolia (Asia Minor) to the Attalid dynasty, a modest fiefdom based in the city of Pergamon. Immediately, the Roman commissioners evacuated along with their force of arms. Enforcement of the settlement, known as the Treaty of Apameia, was left to local beneficiaries, chiefly the Attalids, but also the island republic of Rhodes. The extraction of revenues and the judicious redistribution of resources were both key to the extension of Attalid control over the new territory and the maintenance of the empire. This dissertation is a study of the forms of taxation and public benefaction that characterized the late Attalid kingdom, a multiscalar state comprised of many small communities, most prominent among them, ancient cities on the Greek model of the polis. It argues that the dynasty’s idiosyncratic choices about taxation and euergetism help explain the success of the Attalid imperial project. They aligned interests and created new collectivities.

  • This Book — the Only History of Friendship in Classical Antiquity That Exists in English
    This book — the only history of friendship in classical antiquity that exists in English - examines the nature of friendship in ancient Greece and Rome from Homer (eighth century BC) to the Christian Roman Empire of the fourth century AD. Although friendship is throughout this period conceived of as a voluntary and loving relationship (contrary to the prevailing view among scholars), there are major shifts in emphasis from the bonding among warriors in epic poetry, to the egalitarian ties characteristic of the Athenian democracy, the status-con- scious connections in Rome and the Hellenistic kingdoms, and the commitment to a universal love among Christian writers. Friendship is also examined in relation to erotic love and comradeship, as well as for its role in politics and economic life, in philosophical and religious communities, in connection with patronage and the private counsellors of kings, and in respect to women; its relation to modern friendship is fully discussed.

Pergamon’un Gölgesinde Bir Komşu Kent: Atarneus, itit Üniversitesi Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü Dergisi, Yıl 11, Sayı 1, Haziran ss 325-342 Özet: Araştırmalar göstermektedir ki, antik eramon Kenti’nin oliti ve eonomi açıdan güçlenmesinin sonuçları yakın çevresine bire bir yansımakta ve bunun son olarak entle irlikte taşra da dinamik bir şekilde hızla gelişmekteydi. Pergamon kenti ile kırsalı arasındaki ilişkilerin yanı sıra, bir diğer önemli konu da kentte yaşanan siyasal olaylar ve entin Hellenistik Dönem’en itibaren kaydettiği hızlı gelişmenin komşu kentleri nasıl etkilediğidir. Pergamon'un siyasal ve ekonomik açıdan büyümesi, kırsal kesimlerde tarımsal faaliyetlerin artmasına neden olmuş; komşu kentler açısından ise bu gelişim bazıları için faydalı olurken bazılarının da sonun getirmiştir. Pergamon Krallığı kuruluncaya kadar komşusu Atarneus kentinin bölgede önemli bir yere sahip olduğu bilinmektedir. Atarneus'taki araştırmalarımızda ele geçirilen seramik parçalarına göre, burada tespit edilen en erken yerleşme MÖ 2. bin yıla inmektedir; MÖ 6. ve 5. yüzyıllarda ise hatırı sayılır büyüklükte bir yerleşime ulaşmıştır. Atarneus MÖ 4. yüzyılda – aynı yüzyıldaki kaynakların doğruladığı gibi (Diod. 13, 65, 4)– heybetli ve aşılması neredeyse imkansız surlarla korunuyordu. Metrelerce yükseklikteki surların koruduğu 24 hektarlık kent alanı, Philetairos zamanındaki Pergamon'dan bile daha büyüktü. MÖ 4. yüzyılda Atarneus’da hüküm süren ve yerel bir hanedan beyi olan Hermias'ın egemenliği altındaki bölge, Atarneus’dan itibaren kıyı bölgesini ve Bakırçay Ovası’nı da içine alacak büyüklükteydi. Ele geçirilen seramik parçalarına göre MÖ 3. yüzyılda Atarneus’un refah içinde bir kent olduğunu söyleyebiliriz.

  • The Origins of Greek Mathematics1
    The Origins of Greek Mathematics1 Though the Greeks certainly borrowed from other civilizations, they built a culture and civilization on their own which is The most impressive of all civilizations, • The most influential in Western culture, • The most decisive in founding mathematics as we know it. • The impact of Greece is typified by the hyperbole of Sir Henry Main: “Except the blind forces of nature, nothing moves in this world which is not Greek in its origin.”2 Including the adoption of Egyptian and other earlier cultures by the Greeks, we find their patrimony in all phases of modern life. Handicrafts, mining techniques, engineering, trade, governmental regulation of commerce and more have all come down to use from Rome and from Rome through Greece. Especially, our democrasies and dictatorships go back to Greek exemplars, as well do our schools and universities, our sports, our games. And there is more. Our literature and literary genres, our alphabet, our music, our sculpture, and most particularly our mathematics all exist as facets of 1 c 2000, G. Donald Allen 2Rede° Lecture for 1875, in J.A. Symonds, Studies of Greek Poets, London, 1920. Origins of Greek Mathematics 2 the Greek heritage. The detailed study of Greek mathematics reveals much about modern mathematics, if not the modern directions, then the logic and methods. The best estimate is that the Greek civilization dates back to 2800 BCE — just about the time of the construction of the great pyramids in Egypt. The Greeks settled in Asia Minor, possibly their original home, in the area of modern Greece, and in southern Italy, Sicily, Crete, Rhodes, Delos, and North Africa.

ESTATE PLANNING IN HELLENIC ANTIQUITY: ARISTOTLE'S LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT Anton-Hermann Chroust I. Introduction The text of Aristotle's last will and testament is preserved in the writings of Diogenes Laertius,' Ibn An-Nadim,2 AI-Qifti Gamaladdin, and Ibn Abi Usaibi'a.4 Without question, this instrument is wholly authentic. Although in the course of its transmission it may have been somewhat mutilated or abridged, it remains the most revealing, as well as the most extensive, source of information among the few surviving original documents related to the life of Aristotle. It is safe to assume that the ancient biographers of Aristotle derived or inferred much of their information and data from this will. Concomitantly, this docu- ment supplies the modem historian with details that in many instances have been obscured, altered, or simply omitted in the traditional (and preserved) biog- raphies of Aristotle.
