Bu adak stellerinin, yaĢadığımız coğrafyada yaĢamıĢ insanlar tarafından yapılması konuyu benim için daha da çekici hale getirdi. Anadolu Medeniyetleri Müzesini gezerken görmüĢ olduğum ortalama 15 – 20 cm boyutlarındaki adak stelleri, farklı özellikler göstermesiyle merakımı uyandırdı. Değerli Hocam, Yrd. Doç. Dr. Mustafa YILMAZ, müzeden bir konu seçmemi istediğinde hiç düĢünmeden Phrygia Adak Stellerini çalıĢmak istedim. Müze tarafından, bölgeden ele geçen ve Anadolu‟nun çeĢitli müzelerinde yer alan adak stelleri bir katalogta toplanıp yayınlanmıĢtı. Bölgeden kaynaklanan, ortalama yüz yıllık bir dönem içerisinde üretilen ve aynı özellikleri gösteren çok sayıdaki adak steliyle ilgili birçok çalıĢma yapılmıĢtı. Ben, bu stellerin yalnızca figürlü olanlarını ele alıp, insanların adak adama ihtiyaçlarını inanç iliĢkisi çerçevesinde değerlendirdim.

MICHAEL AND ATTIS Twenty years ago, when I was working on the apse mosaics of St. Sophia at Constantinople, I had ample opportunity to contemplate what is surely one of the most beautiful works of Byzantine art, I mean the image of the archangel Gabriel, who stands next to the enthroned Theotokos (Fig. 1). Gabriel is dressed in court costume; indeed, one can affirm that his costume is imperial, since he is wearing red buskins and holding a globe, the symbol of universal dominion. Yet neither the Bible nor orthodox doctrine as defined by the Fathers provides any justification for portraying an archangel in this guise; no matter how great was his dignity in heaven, he remained a minister and a messenger1. Only God could be described as the equivalent of the emperor. How was it then that Byzantine art, which showed extreme reluctance to give to Christ, the pambasileus, any visible attributes of royalty other than the throne, granted these very attributes to archangels, who had no claim to them? An enquiry I undertook at the time (and left unpublished) suggested the following conclusions: 1. The Byzantines themselves, I mean the medieval Byzantines, could offer no reasonable explanation of the iconography of archangels and seemed to be unaware of its meaning. On the subject of the globe I found only two texts. One was an unedited opuscule by Michael Psellos, who, quite absurdly, considered it to denote the angels' rapidity of movement; "for", he says, "the sphere is such an object that, touching as it does only a tiny portion of the ground, is able in less than an instant to travel in any direction"2.

  • 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.

    EMANUELA BORGIA, CILICIA AND THE ROMAN EMPIRE STUDIA EUROPAEA GNESNENSIA 16/2017 ISSN 2082-5951 DOI 10.14746/seg.2017.16.15 Emanuela Borgia (Rome) CILICIA AND THE ROMAN EMPIRE: REFLECTIONS ON PROVINCIA CILICIA AND ITS ROMANISATION Abstract This paper aims at the study of the Roman province of Cilicia, whose formation process was quite long (from the 1st century BC to 72 AD) and complicated by various events. Firstly, it will focus on a more precise determination of the geographic limits of the region, which are not clear and quite ambiguous in the ancient sources. Secondly, the author will thoroughly analyze the formation of the province itself and its progressive Romanization. Finally, political organization of Cilicia within the Roman empire in its different forms throughout time will be taken into account. Key words Cilicia, provincia Cilicia, Roman empire, Romanization, client kings 295 STUDIA EUROPAEA GNESNENSIA 16/2017 · ROME AND THE PROVINCES Quos timuit superat, quos superavit amat (Rut. Nam., De Reditu suo, I, 72) This paper attempts a systematic approach to the study of the Roman province of Cilicia, whose formation process was quite long and characterized by a complicated sequence of historical and political events. The main question is formulated drawing on – though in a different geographic context – the words of G. Alföldy1: can we consider Cilicia a „typical” province of the Roman empire and how can we determine the peculiarities of this province? Moreover, always recalling a point emphasized by G. Alföldy, we have to take into account that, in order to understand the characteristics of a province, it is fundamental to appreciate its level of Romanization and its importance within the empire from the economic, political, military and cultural points of view2.

Epigtoaphic Bulletin for Greek Religion 1996 (EBGR 1996) The ninth issue of the BEGR contains only part of the epigraphie harvest of 1996; unforeseen circumstances have prevented me and my collaborators from covering all the publications of 1996, but we hope to close the gaps next year. We have also made several additions to previous issues. In the past years the BEGR had often summarized publications which were not primarily of epigraphie nature, thus tending to expand into an unavoidably incomplete bibliography of Greek religion. From this issue on we return to the original scope of this bulletin, whieh is to provide information on new epigraphie finds, new interpretations of inscriptions, epigraphieal corpora, and studies based p;imarily on the epigraphie material. Only if we focus on these types of books and articles, will we be able to present the newpublications without delays and, hopefully, without too many omissions.

  • Understanding the Use of Byzantine Routes in Central Anatolia (Ca
    Studia Ceranea 9, 2019, p. 259–278 ISSN: 2084-140X DOI: 10.18778/2084-140X.09.14 e-ISSN: 2449-8378 Tülin Kaya (Ankara) https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7734-6833 Understanding the Use of Byzantine Routes in Central Anatolia (ca. 7TH–9TH Centuries) Introduction he Byzantine routes in central Anatolia were previously studied in the series T of Tabula Imperii Byzantini1 by Austrian scholars. The TIB gives invaluable information about the routes in Byzantine Central Asia Minor; however, this is the first attempt to understand the use of the main routes in the region within the context of ‘transformation’ and ‘continuity’. In this regard, this paper aims to explain and understand the use of the main routes in Byzantine Central Anatolia by taking into consideration the change in the role and the status of the main urban centres2. The period from the seventh to the ninth century is known and often defined as the age of ‘transition’3. Radical changes which occurred in the political and administrative structure of the Byzantine Empire had an impact on the urbaniza- tion and the use of the main routes in Byzantine Asia Minor between the seventh and ninth century. The changes in the political/administrative and economic con- text that Asia Minor witnessed were more transformative, when compared to the previous centuries. The main factor behind this transformation was the situation of warfare that continued until the ninth century4. 1 See K. Belke, M. Restle, Tabula Imperii Byzantini, vol. IV, Galatien und Lykaonien, Wien 1984; K. Belke, N. Mersich, Tabula Imperii Byzantini, vol.

  • Incubation Reliefs Beyond Attica?
    Appendix IX Incubation Reliefs beyond Attica? In addition to incubation oracles in Greece, the North Aegean and Asia Minor that are attested reliably, several other cult sites have been suspected of also having been visited by those seeking to engage in divinatory incubation, but in each case the evidence is less than conclusive. In contrast to these sanc- tuaries that have been linked to incubation by one or more scholars based on problematic archaeological remains or written sources,1 there are four cases of iconographic evidence that might likewise link a cult to incubation: reliefs possibly showing a dreamer and one or more gods evidently seen in the dream, the interpretation of which is uncertain and subjective.2 The earli- est of these, a broken dedicatory relief from the late-fifth century BCE that is thought to be Peloponnesian in origin and quite possibly non-Attic in terms of its style, shows a figure lying on the ground beneath the goddess Leto, who is made identifiable by the palm tree behind her.3 Since only the right portion of the relief survives, it is impossible to tell what has been lost from this scene, but it has been suggested that Apollo and Artemis originally occupied the left side.4 While there is no reason to doubt that the relief represents a sleep- ing figure, it is unclear whether the rest of the scene was intended to reflect 1 See Appendix I. 2 On reliefs with scenes of divine epiphany in dreams, most of which are from the Attic Asklepieia and Oropos, see van Straten 1976, 1–6 and van Straten 1993.

  • THE GEOGRAPHY of GALATIA Gal 1:2; Act 18:23; 1 Cor 16:1
    CHAPTER 38 THE GEOGRAPHY OF GALATIA Gal 1:2; Act 18:23; 1 Cor 16:1 Mark Wilson KEY POINTS • Galatia is both a region and a province in central Asia Minor. • The main cities of north Galatia were settled by the Gauls in the third cen- tury bc. • The main cities of south Galatia were founded by the Greeks starting in the third century bc. • Galatia became a Roman province in 25 bc, and the Romans established colonies in many of its cities. • Pamphylia was part of Galatia in Paul’s day, so Perga and Attalia were cities in south Galatia. GALATIA AS A REGION and their families who migrated from Galatia is located in a basin in north-cen- Thrace in 278 bc. They had been invited tral Asia Minor that is largely flat and by Nicomedes I of Bithynia to serve as treeless. Within it are the headwaters of mercenaries in his army. The Galatians the Sangarius River (mode rn Sakarya) were notorious for their destructive and the middle course of the Halys River forays, and in 241 bc the Pergamenes led (modern Kızılırmak). The capital of the by Attalus I defeated them at the battle Hittite Empire—Hattusha (modern of the Caicus. The statue of the dying Boğazköy)—was in eastern Galatia near Gaul, one of antiquity’s most noted the later site of Tavium. The name Galatia works of art, commemorates that victo- derives from the twenty thousand Gauls ry. 1 The three Galatian tribes settled in 1 .
