ROMAN PHRYGIA: Cities and Their Coinage ROMAN PHRYGIA: Cities and their Coinage Andrea June Armstrong, PhD, University College London. Abstract of Thesis Roman Phrygia: Cities and their Coinage The principal focus of this thesis is the Upper Maeander Valley in Phrygia, which is now part of modern Turkey, and in particular three cities situated in that region, namely Laodicea, Hierapolis and Colossae. The main source used is the coinage produced by these cities with the aim of determining how they viewed their place within the Roman Empire and how they reacted to the realities of Roman rule. Inscriptional, architectural and narrative sources are also used as well as comparative material from other Phrygian and Asian cities. In order to achieve its aim, the thesis is divided into two parts. Part One details the history of Laodicea, Hierapolis and Colossae and explains the coinage system in use within the province of Asia on a regional and a civic level. The final chapter in the first part of the thesis introduces the theme of the interaction between city, region and empire which is developed more fully in Part Two. Part Two discusses the types used on the coins of the cities of the Upper Maeander Valley in the context of the cultural and religious circumstances of Rome and also in reaction to the organisational and political changes affecting the province of Asia as well as the Empire as a whole. The main conclusions of the thesis are that the cities of Laodicea, Hierapolis and Colossae were very aware of Rome and of their own status, as well as that of their province, within the Roman Empire especially in the context of ongoing circumstances and developments within the Empire. As a whole, the thesis clearly highlights the ways in which city, region and empire interacted together and shows that studies of particular regions and their coinage deserve more attention than they have hitherto received.

It is therefore not surprising that much of the study of the Roman Empire has centred on Rome and its political, social and economic growth and development. For example, after giving a very brief description of the rise of Rome, Appian, in the preface to his Roman History, says that such things were described by many writers, both Greek and Roman: Kclt IdôE iioL.ot 11V 'EA).i1vv ito)ot ÔE 'Ptav ouvypaipav. 1 Appian is among these writers as he starts his work by stating that it is his intention to write a Roman history, T1V 'Pucticiv i otop ay. It is clear that ancient authors freely admitted their interest in Rome and her empire as Polybius' comments also show. In the first book of his Histories, he asks what kind of man would not want to know how the Romans brought the Mediterranean world under their sole government and he cannot believe that anyone would regard any other event In history as greater than this.2 This is not to be wondered at or unusual since the lives of both these ancient authors were closely bound up with Rome. Polybius was an Arcadian born In Megalopolis around 208 B.C. In 167, after the defeat of Perseus of Macedon at Pydna, about one thousand Achaeans were shipped to Italy, Polybius among them. Freedom was eventually granted in 151 but by this time the Greek historian had already become acquainted with the influential Romans of the time, for example, Aemilius Paullus, with the result that he became tutor to Paullus' two sons. This heralded the beginning of his famous friendship with Publius Scipio Aemilianus. Polybius is reputed to have been present when Carthage was destroyed in 146 B.C. and to have joined the 1 Preface, 12. 2 , 5-6. 1 Roman commander at the siege of Numantia in Spain between 134 and 132. Appian, a native of Alexandria in Egypt who lived between c A.D. 95 and 165, says that he reached a high social position in his own city and that he pleaded cases before the emperors and was made procurator: 'Aitittavôç 'AAEavöpE5ç, ç th upôta i'jiccôv v t ltaTptöt, Kat ôtxcitç v 'Póp OuVayopEi5OGç itt TÔV ciotAv, iJ p t pE o4v 1ttTpO1tEV 1t(oav. 3 To be qualified for the latter status, he must have been a Roman citizen of equestrian rank. The lives of both Polybius and Appian were, in some way, shaped by Rome and it would be only natural that, under such circumstances, ancient authors would concentrate their energies on compiling Roman histories. The interest in Rome and her empire has continued in the work of modern authors, not least because of the Romanocentric nature of the ancient sources. Of course, the areas which made up the Empire have not been neglected in modern study. For instance, D. Magie, in his work Roman Rule in Asia Minor which was published in 1958, says that "the purpose of the book is to present what is known of the expansion of Rome's empire in Asia Minor and the lands adjacent on the East and of her rule over the Asiatic provinces in a study continued to the end of the third century after Christ." 4 S. Mitchell in his book, Anatolia, attempts a comprehensive study of a particular area, this time centring on Galatia and not Asia Minor in general like Magie. The work is divided into three sections dealing separately with the Celts, the Romans and finally the later Roman and Byzantine periods. Most recently, M. Sartre has returned to a general account of Asia Minor in his book which deals with the history of Asia from the time of Alexander the Great in the fourth century B.C. until the Preface, 15. RRAM, p. vii. This work was published in 1993. 2 reign of the emperor Diocletian in the third century A.D.6 However, the emphasis seems to be on the actions of Rome and the effects these had on the cites which formed part of the Empire. Although Magie claims to present "what is known of the expansion of Rome's empire in Asia Minor", his book concentrates on what the ruling authorities did in the area for both the Republican and Imperial periods and not on the actions of the cities in response to the rule of Rome. This is even though the latter would also form part of the processes involved in the spread of the Roman Empire. The same can be said about Sartre who has produced a book which provides a good starting point for the study of the province as it deals with its organization, its civic and rural life which includes the cultural, religious and economic aspects. Mitchell touches upon the reactions of the cities as he points out that "as autonomy and independence from external rule became increasingly irrelevant during the late Hellenistic and early imperial periods, public buildings emerged as the dominant and essential characteristic of cities. Such buildings were, and are, the most conspicuous evidence for the material culture of civic life. The use of a cultural, rather than a political criterion to define a civic community was a characteristic of the Roman period." 7 However, the second part of Anatolia as a whole, which chronicles the impact of Roman rule, again has a Roman focus concentrating on, for the most part, the physical changes wrought on the urban and rural landscape by the Roman presence in the area. This is not to say that the view point of the periphery has been completely ignored. The vast corpus of L. Robert shows how both numismatic and epigraphical sources can be used to build up a picture of the life of 6 See L'Asie Mineure et J'Anatoiie d'Alexandre a Dioclétien which was published in 1995. 'I Anatolia, p.198. These aspects are examined in Chapter 12, pp. 198-226. 3 the Greek cities within the Roman Empire. This is aptly illustrated by the volume La Cane produced in collaboration with J. Robert and his work on the inscriptions of Laodicea included in Laodicée du Lycos.8 S.

  • When Kings Become Philosophers: the Late Republican Origins of Cicero’S Political Philosophy
    When Kings Become Philosophers: The Late Republican Origins of Cicero’s Political Philosophy By Gregory Douglas Smay A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Ancient History and Mediterranean Archaeology in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Erich S. Gruen, Chair Professor Carlos F. Noreña Professor Anthony A. Long Summer 2016 © Copyright by Gregory Douglas Smay 2016 All Rights Reserved Abstract When Kings Become Philosophers: The Late Republican Origins of Cicero’s Political Philosophy by Gregory Douglas Smay Doctor of Philosophy in Ancient History and Mediterranean Archaeology University of California, Berkeley Professor Erich S. Gruen, Chair This dissertation argues that Cicero’s de Republica is both a reflection of, and a commentary on, the era in which it was written to a degree not previously recognized in Ciceronian scholarship. Contra readings which treat the work primarily as a theoretical tract in the tradition of late Hellenistic philosophy, this study situates the work within its historical context in Late Republican Rome, and in particular within the personal experience of its author during this tumultuous period. This approach yields new insights into both the meaning and significance of the work and the outlook of the individual who is our single most important witness to the history of the last decades of the Roman Republic. Specifically, the dissertation argues that Cicero provides clues preserved in the extant portions of the de Republica, overlooked by modern students in the past bur clearly recognizable to readers in his own day, indicating that it was meant to be read as a work with important contemporary political resonances.

  • Hadrian and the Greek East
    HADRIAN AND THE GREEK EAST: IMPERIAL POLICY AND COMMUNICATION DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Demetrios Kritsotakis, B.A, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2008 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Fritz Graf, Adviser Professor Tom Hawkins ____________________________ Professor Anthony Kaldellis Adviser Greek and Latin Graduate Program Copyright by Demetrios Kritsotakis 2008 ABSTRACT The Roman Emperor Hadrian pursued a policy of unification of the vast Empire. After his accession, he abandoned the expansionist policy of his predecessor Trajan and focused on securing the frontiers of the empire and on maintaining its stability. Of the utmost importance was the further integration and participation in his program of the peoples of the Greek East, especially of the Greek mainland and Asia Minor. Hadrian now invited them to become active members of the empire. By his lengthy travels and benefactions to the people of the region and by the creation of the Panhellenion, Hadrian attempted to create a second center of the Empire. Rome, in the West, was the first center; now a second one, in the East, would draw together the Greek people on both sides of the Aegean Sea. Thus he could accelerate the unification of the empire by focusing on its two most important elements, Romans and Greeks. Hadrian channeled his intentions in a number of ways, including the use of specific iconographical types on the coinage of his reign and religious language and themes in his interactions with the Greeks. In both cases it becomes evident that the Greeks not only understood his messages, but they also reacted in a positive way.

  • The Formulaic Dynamics of Character Behavior in Lucan Howard Chen
    Breakthrough and Concealment: The Formulaic Dynamics of Character Behavior in Lucan Howard Chen Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2012 © 2012 Howard Chen All rights reserved ABSTRACT Breakthrough and Concealment: The Formulaic Dynamics of Character Behavior in Lucan Howard Chen This dissertation analyzes the three main protagonists of Lucan’s Bellum Civile through their attempts to utilize, resist, or match a pattern of action which I call the “formula.” Most evident in Caesar, the formula is a cycle of alternating states of energy that allows him to gain a decisive edge over his opponents by granting him the ability of perpetual regeneration. However, a similar dynamic is also found in rivers, which thus prove to be formidable adversaries of Caesar in their own right. Although neither Pompey nor Cato is able to draw on the Caesarian formula successfully, Lucan eventually associates them with the river-derived variant, thus granting them a measure of resistance (if only in the non-physical realm). By tracing the development of the formula throughout the epic, the dissertation provides a deeper understanding of the importance of natural forces in Lucan’s poem as well as the presence of an underlying drive that unites its fractured world.

Getting acquainted with the myths Search the GML advanced Sections in this Page I. Getting acquainted with the myths II. Four "gateways" of mythology III. A strategy for reading the myths I. Getting acquainted with the myths What "getting acquainted" may mean We'll first try to clarify the meaning that the expression "getting acquainted" may have in this context: In a practical sense, I mean by "acquaintance" a general knowledge of the tales of mythology, including how they relate to each other. This concept includes neither analysis nor interpretation of the myths nor plunging too deep into one tale or another. In another sense, the expression "getting acquainted" has further implications that deserve elucidation: First of all, let us remember that we naturally investigate what we ignore, and not what we already know; accordingly, we set out to study the myths not because we feel we know them but because we feel we know nothing or very little about them. I mention this obvious circumstance because I believe that we should bear in mind that, in this respect, we are not in the same position as our remote ancestors, who may be assumed to have made their acquaintance with the myths more or less in the same way one learns one's mother tongue, and consequently did not have to study them in any way.

Arrive at the Corinth Canal for a brief stop and then continue on to the Acropolis of Corinth. Acro-corinth is the citadel of Corinth. It is situated to the southwest of the ancient city and rises to an elevation of 1883 ft. [574 m.]. Today it is surrounded by walls that are about 1.85 mi. [3 km.] long. The foundations of the fortifications are ancient—going back to the Hellenistic Period. The current walls were built and rebuilt by the Byzantines, Franks, Venetians, and Ottoman Turks. Climb up and visit the fortress. Then proceed to the Ancient city of Corinth. It was to this megalopolis where the apostle Paul came and worked, established a thriving church, subsequently sending two of his epistles now part of the New Testament. Here, we see all of the sites associated with his ministry: the Agora, the Temple of Apollo, the Roman Odeon, the Bema and Gallio’s Seat. The small local archaeological museum here is an absolute must! In Romans 16:23 Paul mentions his friend Erastus and • • we will see an inscription to him at the site.
