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. -

Dædalusexplores
projects and publications Dædalus Explores “What’s New about the Old” The collection explores new developments in the classics that are reshaping our understanding of the ancient world–and its relevance to today ascination with Greco-Roman culture continues to drive academic curricula and popular interest, in spite of recent Fdata signaling a decline in the study of the humanities. New developments in the study of the ancient world–integrat- ing methodological, philosophical, and technological advances–have, in some cases, revolutionized our understanding of the past, opening up a new realm of classical studies for the twenty-first century. This period of discovery is due in large part to a new generation of classicists who are reshaping our access to and understanding of Greco-Roman culture. Innova- tive, multidisciplinary approaches, often applying cut- ting-edge science and technology to the study of the an- cient world, are yielding new questions and altering our engagement with the past. For example, not only have novel technologies enabled the discovery of new literary papyri, but methodological changes have altered which texts scholars might use to piece together ancient world- views. This “new science of antiquity”–including mul- tispectral imaging, 3D laser scanning, and bioarchaeol- ogy–is enabling researchers to reconstruct previously inaccessible data and documents, revealing, for exam- ple, mysteries about ancient ecosystems and decipher- ing papyri carbonized during the eruption of Vesuvius. In the Spring 2016 issue of Dædalus, guest editor Matthew S. Santirocco (New York University) has cu- rated a series of essays that explore the notion that “the past is still very much alive in the present.” In the introduction “Reassessing Greece & Rome,” Mat- thew S. -

The Jews of Aphrodisias: New Evidence and Old Problems
Originalveröffentlichung in: Scripta Classica Israelica 21, 2002, S. 209-242. The Jews of Aphrodisias: New Evidence and Old Problems Angelos Chaniotis 1 1. The 'donor inscriptions' and their puzzles Aphrodisias, site of a famous sanctuary of Aphrodite, important center of urban life in 2 Roman Asia Minor, and the capital of the province of Caria in Late Antiquity, has at- tracted considerable attention among students of Judaism since the publication by Joyce Reynolds and Robert Tannenbaum of two important inscriptions conceming the Jewish community (Fig. 1). The two texts give the names of 68 Jews, three proselytes, and 54 theosebeis ('god-fearers'), thus attesting the existence of a large and apparently 3 prospering Jewish community at Aphrodisias. Unfortunately, this is the only uncontro- versial Statement one can make about these inscriptions, which I will call — for the sake of convenience — the 'donor inscriptions'. Almost all issues related to this monument, including the date of the two texts, their relation to one another, the interpretation of the 4 introductory text written on one of the two inscribed faces, the interpretation of the 5 word patella or patelläs and the nature of the 'memoriaF (mnemeiori) set up 'for the 6 relief of the people from grief , the question whether the 'godfearers' {theosebeis) con- stituted a separate group (persons that attended the synagogue without being fully 1 All dates are CE, if not otherwise stated.

Turkey): New Information from a Systematic Review and Integration of Archaeological and Archaeometric Data
heritage Article The Provenance of Marbles and Alabasters Used in the Monuments of Hierapolis in Phrygia (Turkey): New Information from a Systematic Review and Integration of Archaeological and Archaeometric Data Giuseppe Scardozzi Institute for Archaeological and Monumental Heritage, National Research Council of Italy, Monteroni Road, 73100 Lecce, Italy; [email protected] Received: 31 December 2018; Accepted: 31 January 2019; Published: 6 February 2019 Abstract: Determining the provenance of the stones used for ancient architectures is very important in order to reconstruct many social and economic questions linked to the life of a city. This paper integrates previous and new archaeometric data about marble and alabaster quarries in south-western Phrygia (Lykos valley), and offers a review of some results of the research activities carried out between the years 2013–2018 and aimed to reconstruct the building stone procurement strategies adopted in the city of Hierapolis in Phrygia across a broad chronological time span from the Hellenistic age to the Byzantine period. The research activities based on a multidisciplinary approach, integrating the archaeological and art-historian study of the monuments, the topographical investigation of the quarries, and the archaeometric characterisation both of extraction sites and marbles and alabasters used in the building sites of the urban area and in the necropolises. Keywords: marble; alabaster; quarry; building site; archaeology; archaeometry; Asia Minor; Roman Imperial period 1. Introduction, Study Area, and Research Aim Numerous studies in the last few years have concentrated on the role of marble architecture in Rome and on the importation of high-value materials to the center of power during the Imperial age. -

www.LiLiBook.ir 1 www.LiLiBook.ir Troy - 03 David & Stella Gemmell 2 www.LiLiBook.ir “Beware the wooden horse, Agamemnon King, Battle King, Conqueror, for it will roar to the skies on wings of thunder and herald the death of nations.” “A pox on riddles, priest!” replied the king. “Tell me of Troy and of victory.” “The last king of the Golden City will be Mykene. The gods have spoken.” —THE ORACLE OF THE CAVE OF WINGS 3 www.LiLiBook.ir PROLOGUE A bright moon shone low in the sky above the isle of Imbros, its silver light bathing the rocky shoreline and the Mykene war fleet beached there. The curve of the bay was filled with ships: some fifty war galleys and more than a hundred barges drawn up so tightly that there was not a handbreadth between them. On the beach the Mykene army sat around scores of cookfires, eight thousand soldiers, some preparing their weapons, sharpening swords, or burnishing shields and others playing dice or dozing by the flickering fires. The beach was so crowded, many of the sailors had remained on their ships rather than jostle for a strip of rocky ground on which to lay their blankets. Agamemnon, king of the Mykene and warlord of the western armies, stood outside his canopied tent, his gaunt frame wrapped in a long black cloak, his cold eyes staring out to sea toward the east, where the sky glowed red. The fortress of Dardanos was burning. With luck and the blessing of the war god Ares, the mission had been totally successful.
