  • Kretan Cult and Customs, Especially in the Classical and Hellenistic Periods: a Religious, Social, and Political Study
    i Kretan cult and customs, especially in the Classical and Hellenistic periods: a religious, social, and political study Thesis submitted for degree of MPhil Carolyn Schofield University College London ii Declaration I, Carolyn Schofield, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been acknowledged in the thesis. iii Abstract Ancient Krete perceived itself, and was perceived from outside, as rather different from the rest of Greece, particularly with respect to religion, social structure, and laws. The purpose of the thesis is to explore the bases for these perceptions and their accuracy. Krete’s self-perception is examined in the light of the account of Diodoros Siculus (Book 5, 64-80, allegedly based on Kretan sources), backed up by inscriptions and archaeology, while outside perceptions are derived mainly from other literary sources, including, inter alia, Homer, Strabo, Plato and Aristotle, Herodotos and Polybios; in both cases making reference also to the fragments and testimonia of ancient historians of Krete. While the main cult-epithets of Zeus on Krete – Diktaios, associated with pre-Greek inhabitants of eastern Krete, Idatas, associated with Dorian settlers, and Kretagenes, the symbol of the Hellenistic koinon - are almost unique to the island, those of Apollo are not, but there is good reason to believe that both Delphinios and Pythios originated on Krete, and evidence too that the Eleusinian Mysteries and Orphic and Dionysiac rites had much in common with early Kretan practice. The early institutionalization of pederasty, and the abduction of boys described by Ephoros, are unique to Krete, but the latter is distinct from rites of initiation to manhood, which continued later on Krete than elsewhere, and were associated with different gods.

  • Pots, Peoples and Places in 4Th Century Apulia”
    ABSTRACTS - English Alastair SMALL, University of Edinburgh. “Pots, peoples and places in 4th century Apulia” This paper is intended to provide a broad context for the more specialized studies which will follow it in the symposium. It begins with a brief description of the geographical features that make Apulia different from the rest of Italy, and the economic resources that were available for economic exploitation in the late 5th and 4th centuries BC. It then discusses the distinctive cultural characteristics of the Apulian peoples, their ethnic subdivisions, and the relationship between ethnicity and material culture. By the time that red-figured pottery began to be made in South Italy, the ethnic units were losing their relevance, and the Apulian peoples were developing the structures and institutions of city-states. A relatively small number of cities controlled large territories which included numerous smaller settlements. As the city structures developed, so too did the socio-political organization within them. There was a social and probably political / military hierarchy which is reflected in the burials of the period. The weapons and armour deposited in graves point to the military ethos of this society. It depended on the military prowess not just of an aristocratic élite, but of a large body of infantrymen who fought with both throwing and thrusting spears. Grave goods and, to a lesser extent, artefacts from excavations in settlements, illustrate the hellenization of these peoples, especially in Central Apulia where Greek cultural models were often imitated, and the Greek language was widely used. Apulian traders developed close commercial contacts with Athens as well as with the Greek (Italiote) cities on the Ionian coast.

  • A New Perspective on the Early Roman Dictatorship, 501-300 B.C
    A NEW PERSPECTIVE ON THE EARLY ROMAN DICTATORSHIP, 501-300 B.C. BY Jeffrey A. Easton Submitted to the graduate degree program in Classics and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master’s of Arts. Anthony Corbeill Chairperson Committee Members Tara Welch Carolyn Nelson Date defended: April 26, 2010 The Thesis Committee for Jeffrey A. Easton certifies that this is the approved Version of the following thesis: A NEW PERSPECTIVE ON THE EARLY ROMAN DICTATORSHIP, 501-300 B.C. Committee: Anthony Corbeill Chairperson Tara Welch Carolyn Nelson Date approved: April 27, 2010 ii Page left intentionally blank. iii ABSTRACT According to sources writing during the late Republic, Roman dictators exercised supreme authority over all other magistrates in the Roman polity for the duration of their term. Modern scholars have followed this traditional paradigm. A close reading of narratives describing early dictatorships and an analysis of ancient epigraphic evidence, however, reveal inconsistencies in the traditional model. The purpose of this thesis is to introduce a new model of the early Roman dictatorship that is based upon a reexamination of the evidence for the nature of dictatorial imperium and the relationship between consuls and dictators in the period 501-300 BC. Originally, dictators functioned as ad hoc magistrates, were equipped with standard consular imperium, and, above all, were intended to supplement consuls. Furthermore, I demonstrate that Sulla’s dictatorship, a new and genuinely absolute form of the office introduced in the 80s BC, inspired subsequent late Republican perceptions of an autocratic dictatorship.

  • Archaeology Edited by T C
    Centre and I Periphery Comparative Studies in Archaeology Edited by T C. Champion ONE W~RLD ARCHAEOLOGY '----------~~- 5 Greeks and natives in south-east Italy: approaches to the archaeological evidence RUTH D. WHITEHOUSE and JOHN B. WILKINS Introduction Recent years have seen much work on the relationship between Greeks and the populations ofsouthern Italy that were in situ before the Greeks arrived. 1 While much of this work is interesting, the majority continues to be characterized by two tendencies that we regard as unhelpful. First, there is the uncritical acceptance of the writings of Greek and Roman authors and a corresponding inclination to interpret the archaeological record in traditional historical terms, in line with the ancient authors. We have written about this elsewhere, so will not pursue it further here (Whitehouse & Wilkins 1985). Equally invidious is the strongly pro-Greek prejudice of most scholars, which leads them to regard all things Greek as inherently superior. It follows that Greekness is seen as something that other societies will acquire through simple exposure - like measles (but nicer!). These attitudes are apparent in the vocabulary used to describe the process: scholars write of the 'helleni­ zation' ofsouthern Italy, rather than employing terms such as 'urbanization' or 'civilization'. However, hellenization is a weak concept, lacking in analytical power, since it is evident that not all aspects ofHellenic culture are equally likely to have been adopted by the native south Italians, or at the same rate. The concept of hellenization may have some use in a restricted context, for a study of pottery styles or architecture, for instance.

  • Emblems of Identity Revisited: Gender and the Messapian Trozzella
    doi: 10.2143/AWE.19.0.3288566 AWE 19 (2020) 247-255 EMBLEMS OF IDENTITY REVISITED: GENDER AND THE MESSAPIAN TROZZELLA EDWARD HERRING Abstract This paper returns to a topic first discussed by the author in 1995, namely the continued use of an otherwise obsolete pottery style and vase form – the trozzella – in the tombs of the non-Greek popula- tion of the Salento Peninsula. The earlier paper argued that the use of the trozzella was to communi- cate messages of ethnic identity. However, by the late 5th and 4th centuries BC, trozzelle are only found in the graves of adult women. The present paper, therefore, revisits the original argument to address this gender dimension and the implications for indigenous identity at the time. Introduction More than 20 years ago I published a paper entitled ‘Emblems of Identity. An examina- tion of the use of matt-painted pottery in the native tombs of the Salento Peninsula in the 5th and 4th centuries BC’.1 It drew attention to the late survival of matt-painted pottery in indigenous tombs from the Salento Peninsula in south-eastern Italy, long after this type of pottery had ceased to be used in domestic contexts (Fig. 1).2 Across much of the Salento area only one traditional vase form – the trozzella3 – survives in any significant 1 Herring 1995. 2 South-eastern Italy was home to both Greek and indigenous people in the 5th and 4th centuries BC. The Greeks lived mainly at Tarentum and its chora. The rest of the Salento peninsula was occupied by an indigenous population, referred to by the Greeks as the Messapians.

  • The Ancient People of Italy Before the Rise of Rome, Italy Was a Patchwork
    The Ancient People of Italy Before the rise of Rome, Italy was a patchwork of different cultures. Eventually they were all subsumed into Roman culture, but the cultural uniformity of Roman Italy erased what had once been a vast array of different peoples, cultures, languages, and civilizations. All these cultures existed before the Roman conquest of the Italian Peninsula, and unfortunately we know little about any of them before they caught the attention of Greek and Roman historians. Aside from a few inscriptions, most of what we know about the native people of Italy comes from Greek and Roman sources. Still, this information, combined with archaeological and linguistic information, gives us some idea about the peoples that once populated the Italian Peninsula. Italy was not isolated from the outside world, and neighboring people had much impact on its population. There were several foreign invasions of Italy during the period leading up to the Roman conquest that had important effects on the people of Italy. First there was the invasion of Alexander I of Epirus in 334 BC, which was followed by that of Pyrrhus of Epirus in 280 BC. Hannibal of Carthage invaded Italy during the Second Punic War (218–203 BC) with the express purpose of convincing Rome’s allies to abandon her. After the war, Rome rearranged its relations with many of the native people of Italy, much influenced by which peoples had remained loyal and which had supported their Carthaginian enemies. The sides different peoples took in these wars had major impacts on their destinies. In 91 BC, many of the peoples of Italy rebelled against Rome in the Social War.

There are good illustrations which clearly relate to the text. It is unfortunate that results from the excavations at Laona, the most obvious site for comparative data, were not available when the Vathyrkakas volume was compiled. Nevertheless, the volume makes a useful contribution to our understanding of the late fourth and early third millennia B.C. on Cyprus.

Placed within previous discussions on the importance of the seas and other interactions in network and identity formation, this thesis seeks to contextualize and reveal the evolution of a distinctly local Tarentine identity. Whereas in previous works the importance of the “local” and its influence have been studied for the purpose of broader topics, the “local” city of Taras and its citizens are the primary focus of this research in an attempt to step away from the negative connotations associated with the city-state by the surviving ancient sources. The analysis of Taras’ early history reveals that the polis was founded in a region with a long history of pre-existing network connections, as well as a tendency to depend more heavily upon long distance connections with the Greek world.
