  • ARCHITECTURE in MAURETANIAN TINGITANA (N.) Architectural
    THE CLASSICAL REVIEW 495 discussion is provided by this very informative, albeit technical, contribution. The appen- dix, consisting of amphorae stamps from the Laecanii workshop, completes the corpus of these stamps, addressed by Bezeczky on several occasions in his research about their wide distribution and Istrian production. Taking into consideration the difficulties arising from the excavation and finds handling ‘strategies’, Bezeczky’s volume manages to further our knowledge of this key Adriatic site, providing, since most of the analysed materials are imports in the region, ample data for comparative and distribution studies relevant for the wider Mediterranean. Readers are informed, by both the papers and the catalogue, about the occurrences of amphorae that have seldom been identified on the eastern Adriatic, such as Gaulish, Sicilian as well as early eastern Mediterranean and Black Sea types. The material is expertly analysed, offer- ing a firm ground for further research about this assemblage or amphorae distribution in general. Moreover, as the publication of pottery and ceramics assemblages from the eastern Adriatic has not always followed the numerous field research projects, an addition to the very few published corpora is welcome. Despite some editorial and contextual glitches (e. g. if there is a section dedicated to epigraphy, why has not all the epigraphy related data been assembled there?), deriving from the unfortunate events during the last phases of the volume’s preparation, as well as minor geographical inconsistencies and spelling errors, the volume is informative, with up-to-date references and richly illustrated. The interpret- ational inaccuracies, mostly related to the site’s architecture and nature, can be overcome by a critical evaluation on the part of the reader, thus not diminishing the work as a whole.

    Nisan / The Levantine Review Volume 4 Number 2 (Winter 2015) Identity and Peoples in History Speculating on Ancient Mediterranean Mysteries Mordechai Nisan* We are familiar with a philo-Semitic disposition characterizing a number of communities, including Phoenicians/Lebanese, Kabyles/Berbers, and Ismailis/Druze, raising the question of a historical foundation binding them all together. The ethnic threads began in the Galilee and Mount Lebanon and later conceivably wound themselves back there in the persona of Al-Muwahiddun [Unitarian] Druze. While DNA testing is a fascinating methodology to verify the similarity or identity of a shared gene pool among ostensibly disparate peoples, we will primarily pursue our inquiry using conventional historical materials, without however—at the end—avoiding the clues offered by modern science. Our thesis seeks to substantiate an intuition, a reading of the contours of tales emanating from the eastern Mediterranean basin, the Levantine area, to Africa and Egypt, and returning to Israel and Lebanon. The story unfolds with ancient biblical tribes of Israel in the north of their country mixing with, or becoming Lebanese Phoenicians, travelling to North Africa—Tunisia, Algeria, and Libya in particular— assimilating among Kabyle Berbers, later fusing with Shi’a Ismailis in the Maghreb, who would then migrate to Egypt, and during the Fatimid period evolve as the Druze. The latter would later flee Egypt and return to Lebanon—the place where their (biological) ancestors had once dwelt. The original core group was composed of Hebrews/Jews, toward whom various communities evince affinity and identity today with the Jewish people and the state of Israel.

  • ROMAN POLITICS DURING the JUGURTHINE WAR by PATRICIA EPPERSON WINGATE Bachelor of Arts in Education Northeastern Oklahoma State
    ROMAN POLITICS DURING THE JUGURTHINE WAR By PATRICIA EPPERSON ,WINGATE Bachelor of Arts in Education Northeastern Oklahoma State University Tahlequah, Oklahoma 1971 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS May, 1975 SEP Ji ·J75 ROMAN POLITICS DURING THE JUGURTHINE WAR Thesis Approved: . Dean of the Graduate College 91648 ~31 ii PREFACE The Jugurthine War occurred within the transitional period of Roman politics between the Gracchi and the rise of military dictators~ The era of the Numidian conflict is significant, for during that inter­ val the equites gained political strength, and the Roman army was transformed into a personal, professional army which no longer served the state, but dedicated itself to its commander. The primary o~jec­ tive of this study is to illustrate the role that political events in Rome during the Jugurthine War played in transforming the Republic into the Principate. I would like to thank my adviser, Dr. Neil Hackett, for his patient guidance and scholarly assistance, and to also acknowledge the aid of the other members of my counnittee, Dr. George Jewsbury and Dr. Michael Smith, in preparing my final draft. Important financial aid to my degree came from the Dr. Courtney W. Shropshire Memorial Scholarship. The Muskogee Civitan Club offered my name to the Civitan International Scholarship Selection Committee, and I am grateful for their ass.istance. A note of thanks is given to the staff of the Oklahoma State Uni­ versity Library, especially Ms. Vicki Withers, for their overall assis­ tance, particularly in securing material from other libraries.

  • Nostalgias in Modern Tunisia Dissertation
    Images of the Past: Nostalgias in Modern Tunisia Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By David M. Bond, M.A. Graduate Program in Near Eastern Languages and Cultures The Ohio State University 2017 Dissertation Committee: Sabra J. Webber, Advisor Johanna Sellman Philip Armstrong Copyrighted by David Bond 2017 Abstract The construction of stories about identity, origins, history and community is central in the process of national identity formation: to mould a national identity – a sense of unity with others belonging to the same nation – it is necessary to have an understanding of oneself as located in a temporally extended narrative which can be remembered and recalled. Amid the “memory boom” of recent decades, “memory” is used to cover a variety of social practices, sometimes at the expense of the nuance and texture of history and politics. The result can be an elision of the ways in which memories are constructed through acts of manipulation and the play of power. This dissertation examines practices and practitioners of nostalgia in a particular context, that of Tunisia and the Mediterranean region during the twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. Using a variety of historical and ethnographical sources I show how multifaceted nostalgia was a feature of the colonial situation in Tunisia notably in the period after the First World War. In the postcolonial period I explore continuities with the colonial period and the uses of nostalgia as a means of contestation when other possibilities are limited.

    J. E. H. SPAUL I.A.M. 2,250 = AE 1967, 655 AND THE IDENTIFICATION OF COLONIA BABBA aus: Zeitschrift für Papyrologie und Epigraphik 103 (1994) 191–201 © Dr. Rudolf Habelt GmbH, Bonn 191 I.A.M. 2,250 = AE 1967,655 AND THE IDENTIFICATION OF COLONIA BABBA Part I. Where was Colonia Iulia Babba Campestris? Only one of the many "Inscriptions Antiques du Maroc, tome 2, inscriptions latines" mentions the colony of Babba, a town whose location has been and still is the subject of controversy. No. 250 is therefore the only epigraphic pointer which we have to help in bringing this controversy to an end. But before examining the inscription, it is appropriate to review the historical and literary pointers and the previous attempts to locate Babba. It is generally accepted that Colonia Iulia Babba Campestris was one of the three colonies established by Octavian in western Mauretania (Mauretania Tingitana) for men discharged after the Battle of Actium. The original reference to Babba Campestris occurs in the Elder Pliny's Natural History, 5, 1, 5. Pliny has already mentioned one of the three colonies, Colonia Iulia Zilil Constantia, and after describing Lixus, he continues: "Ab Lixo XL millia passuum in mediterraneo altera Augusti colonia est Babba, Iulia Campestris appellata, et tertia Banasa XXXV millia passuum Valentia cognominata: ab ea XXXV millia passuum Volubile oppidum tantumden a mari utroque distans." This seems simple; forty miles inland from Lixus is another Augustan colony, Babba, called Iulia Campestris, and a third, 35 miles further, Banasa, with the surname Valentia; from there, a further 35 miles, is Volubilis, a town which is equidistant from both the seas, the Atlantic and Mediterranean.

Despite her legendary status, al-Kâhina’s existence as a historical female figure who reigned over the Amazigh is disputed. In this paper, I highlight the long history of colonial occupation and continual resistance organizing by the Amazigh prior to al-Kâhina’s battles with the Arab invaders at the end of the seventh century. Through analysis of secondary sources, I examine how both Arab and French occupations appropriated the legend to promote their agendas. I argue that al-Kâhina’s story has been used to enforce or combat different political agendas, both historically and today. Presently in the region , al-Kâhina has been iconized and used as the “face” of Amazigh nationalist and cultural movements. ii The thesis of Jessica Leigh Keuter is approved. Katherine M.
