CHAPTER IV. Period VI. Marcus Aurelius to Didius Julianus. the Continuation 195. CH.IV: CHAPTER IV. Period VI. Marcus Aurelius to Didius Julianus. The Continuation. This Period is essentially one of transition, without much in the way of a distinctive character of its own, merging into the preceding and succeeding Periods, the innovations which adumbrate the latter hardly perceptible in the gentle flow from one to the other. Like its first century counterpart, Period III, however, it is also a Period where the response to the previous impositions and developments first becomes apparent, but this time the response is affirmative, and signalled in a highly paradoxical manner. This is not to say that there is not also a continuation of old pre-Roman forms which did not spread beyond their place of origin to become part of the Romano-Syrian milieu, or even a fresh recrudescence of older types. At Koryphaios (Gebel Seih Barakat) in the Dana plain, the Sanctuary of Zeus Bomos (A.D. 161) and the stylistically closely related Sanctuary of Zeus Madbachos^show a strong a-Classical architectural elements, particular­ ly in regard to the "lotus" capitals, which bear some resemblance to the late Byzantine-Umayyad capitals in Palmyrene, especially those from Resafa. The old cults themselves persisted with little sign of abatement or alteration - the cult of Zeus Belus at Apamea, for example, is attested by the reference to the prophecy which Septimius Severus received from this oracle during his 2 service in Syria, which should have taken place during this Period. And, despite the issue of coins with Latin legends at Antioch to commemorate the 3 arrival of Verus, Latin, too, continued to 'advance to the rear': its usage is attested only in official contexts, or where soldiers and officials are concerned, and, even so, on the milestone of A.D. 162 near Aelia, dedicated to Marcus Aurelius and Verus, it was deemed necessary to repeat the vital 4 part of the inscription, "5 miles from Col. Aelia Cap.", in Greek. By the same token of course, this also attests the use of Greek as a lingua franca in what was once, at least ostensibly, a non-Greek area, and from this point of view is in harmony with the general tone of the Period. As a whole, it was a matter of a steady continuation of earlier trends and developments, and those innovations which occurred were either themselves Romanizing, or elements which were destined to become part of the future Romano-Syrian milieu. The tendency towards uniformity continued. The implementation of programmes initiated in the previous Period CH.IV: 196. proceeded without interruption, both those of a purely local character, the build­ ing programmes of the various cities, now attributable in execution if not in inspiration to the local inhabitants themselves, and those overall programmes which can be referred to the Roman administration, provincial or otherwise. The Hadrianic road system in Judaea and the Decapolis area was expanded by the addition of the Damascus-Salcha-Gadara road, and the road from Aelia to Emmaus under Marcus Aurelius; the road from Jerash to Adra'a 5 was perhaps repaired at the very end of the Period, A milestone numbered XI, and dated to the reign of Marcus Aurelius, found between Byblos and the Nahr C el-Kelb suggests that the roads of Syria proper also received attention where needed, as does the inscription from Abila Lysaniae discussed below. Tn terms of cultural dynamics, this constitutes no more than superimposition, or reinforcement of the previous superimposi tions, but the continuing programmes of the various cities are now more a matter of response, whether to previous Roman superimpositions or to the spread of the Romano-Syrian milieu, which, it must be reiterated, the growth of the road system facilitated. At Palmyra, the building programme, with the extension of the east-west colonnaded street (the "decumanus"), the extension of the trans­ verse colonnaded street which had been initiated under Hadrian southwards towards the Ephca spring, the South-West Gate, and the organization of the eastern part or the town into a residential quarter with parallel streets, cut by the "decumanus", all continued/ So too did the new Palmyrene script, g developed, according to Starcky, under the influence of Greek. In the field of religion, it is obvious that the cult of Baalshamin-Zeus Hypsistos continu­ ed to gain support: an altar, dedicated to " A l l y ^ i c t o j k a i e i i h k o u )" (sic), Q dated to A.D. 163, was discovered close to the Ephca by Wood and Dawkins, the epithet "e i m k o g o " being characteristic of this new, compassionate aspect of Baalshamin.^ The imperial cult is more firmly attested at Palmyra in this Period: Bowersock^ notes that a Caesareum is explicitly referred to in an inscription of A.D. 171, as well as in one of A.D. 272, and wishes to ascribe an inscription of A.D. 166 from Kasr al-H@r ech Charqi, which perhaps mentions an imperial priest, to Palmyra itself. 12 It was in this Period, according to Ward-Perkins, that the 1 "5 Propylaea was added to the Sanctuary of Bel. As remarked earlier, this sanctuary, taking its core to be bounded by the four earliest colonnades, was almost square. The addition of the Propylaea was enough to tip the balance, and the long and short axes of the sanctuary were now reversed. CH. IV: 197. The sanctuary as a whole was now of the long-axis type, if it was not so before with some predecessor of the Propylaea, since the temple door lay on the axis of this entrance. The transitional nature of the Period means that the ascription of evidence dated by stylistic criteria is always doubtful, as the styles in question continue across the arbitrary chronological boundaries; so it is that the most pertinent new development in personal appearance at Palmyra may be assigned to this Period or the preceding one. Ingholt's Group II 14 Palmyrene sculptures are dated ca. 150-200 A.D. Two of the busts belong­ ing to this group, which he published in Syria 1930, depict bearded (and mustachioed) males, as opposed to the clean-shaven features of earlier busts, something which Ingholt seems to consider as an important chrono­ logical criterion. Both busts in question appear to date to this Period, and in both the beard is shown as short and curly, "avec des petites 15 boucles cr^pues" as Ingholt puts it (or, as Coll edge terms them, "snail curls"); in one case, that of the funerary bust of Vaballat son of Vaballat, this rendition is compared by Ingholt to that on a bust dated A.D. 154-155.16 These beards, as Colledge^points out, have Parthian relations, but it does not seem unreasonable to suggest, as too does Col ledge, that the change was inspired by one of the famous bearded Roman emperors, Hadrian or Marcus Aurelius - Verus, too, was bearded in the earlier part of his reign - particularly since the introduction of beards coincided 18 with the introduction into Palmyra of the Antonine male hairstyle. It is, however, uncertain which of the three emperors set the fashion . The two busts under discussion find their best parallels in Period VI, but both were funerary; the fashion presumably started earlier, while the subjects were alive, though how much earlier it is impossible to say. All three emperors visited the provinve, although Marcus' visit (A.D. 176) came too late to have initiated the fashion, but in any case the more likely inspiration would have been official portraits generally and 19 especially coin portraits. CH. IV: 198. Antioch displays a similar pattern of continuity, reiteration and the gradual development of types already established. The pottery, like the material of this Period as a whole, echoes that of preceding Periods, and foreshadows that of succeeding ones. The fine imported (or perhaps now locally produced) ware falls into the category which Waagg calls Middle Roman, a phase which he dates to the latter part of the second century and the early part of the third: Early Roman shapes die out, and a few new ones appear; he notes the decline in quantity, quality 20 and the variety of shapes. At the same time he mentions the occasional appearance of Late Roman B, a type which continues into the Late Roman 21 22 period proper, in Middle Roman deposits. The local moulded bowls (which show an unbroken development from Hellenistic times, and influenced local pottery as far away as Palestine, the decoration of which, in Roman times, included both the garland pattern which may have derived from Roman moulded bowls and the quatripartite rosette common on late mosaics under Sassanian influence) also continued, occurring in the later Middle Roman deposit in Sector 16-P; again, the most noticeable change is the decline in quantity and quality. The architectural picture is not so clear. There is some slight literary evidence regarding two of the most important types, those whose existence implies a concomitant institution or practice, but it is doubtful in the extreme. The implication of SHA Marcus VIII.12, et Verus quidem, posteaquam in Syriam venit Antiochiam et Daphnen vixit armisque se qladiatoriis et venatibus exercuit, is that the practice of holding gladiatorial games, first introduced by Antiochus IV Epiphanes and reinforced by Caesar, had endured, and was still acceptable. Some sort of facilities must have existed for these contests, and since we are not told that Verus built or rebuilt any amphitheatre - given that the statement is pejorative, and this would have aggravated the offence, it would almost certainly have been mentioned, had it been known to be so - it is possible that Caesar's was still in good repair; such maintenance itself in turn implies continuous local interest.

  • Monuments of Terrorism: (De)Selecting Memory and Symbolic Exchange at the Interface Between Westminster and Raqqa
    Liminalities: A Journal of Performance Studies Vol. 16, No. 2 (2020) Monuments of Terrorism: (De)Selecting Memory and Symbolic Exchange at the Interface Between Westminster and Raqqa Theodore Price Contemporary conflict is conducted across multiple visual fronts, as the old visual symbols of conventional warfare and remembrance are increasingly replaced with digital images. Focusing on three events in the summer of 2015: the attack on tourists in Tunisia, the blowing up of the Temple of Bel in Palmyra, Syria, and the construction of a replica of the destroyed Arch of Triumph from Palmyra in Trafalgar Square, London, this paper details the symbolic exchange between the so-called Islamic State and western governments. Through an examination of the visual representation of violence enacted towards individual holidaymakers and ancient tourist sites, this paper details how the attack on a holiday resort in Tuni- sia was recast through a master narrative of war where the military repatriation of civilians represented the dead tourists as fallen soldiers. It will examine the visual record of the destruction of the Temple of Bel, by the Islamic State (ISIS), arguing that this action gained international legitimacy through the validation and complicity of the visual frame provided by satellite images from the United Na- tions. Finally, it will discuss the replication of the Arch of Triumph, from Palmyra, in Trafalgar Square as a further example of the instrumentalisation of counter- iconoclasm. In this paper I suggest that the new monuments to terrorism are images of the events themselves, rather than simply physical memorials built for remem- brance, and that these new monuments to terrorism circulating within the virtual landscapes of the internet, become the new sites of collective memorialisation Theodore Price is a London-based artist, curator and researcher whose practice is located at the intersection between art and politics.

  • The Palmyrene Prosopography
    THE PALMYRENE PROSOPOGRAPHY by Palmira Piersimoni University College London Thesis submitted for the Higher Degree of Doctor of Philosophy London 1995 C II. TRIBES, CLANS AND FAMILIES (i. t. II. TRIBES, CLANS AND FAMILIES The problem of the social structure at Palmyra has already been met by many authors who have focused their interest mainly to the study of the tribal organisation'. In dealing with this subject, it comes natural to attempt a distinction amongst the so-called tribes or family groups, for they are so well and widely attested. On the other hand, as shall be seen, it is not easy to define exactly what a tribe or a clan meant in terms of structure and size and which are the limits to take into account in trying to distinguish them. At the heart of Palmyrene social organisation we find not only individuals or families but tribes or groups of families, in any case groups linked by a common (true or presumed) ancestry. The Palmyrene language expresses the main gentilic grouping with phd2, for which the Greek corresponding word is ØuAi in the bilingual texts. The most common Palmyrene formula is: dynwpbd biiyx... 'who is from the tribe of', where sometimes the word phd is omitted. Usually, the term bny introduces the name of a tribe that either refers to a common ancestor or represents a guild as the Ben Komarê, lit. 'the Sons of the priest' and the Benê Zimrâ, 'the sons of the cantors' 3 , according to a well-established Semitic tradition of attaching the guilds' names to an ancestor, so that we have the corporations of pastoral nomads, musicians, smiths, etc.

  • The Migration of Syrian and Palestinian Populations in the 7Th Century: Movement of Individuals and Groups in the Mediterranean
    Chapter 10 The Migration of Syrian and Palestinian Populations in the 7th Century: Movement of Individuals and Groups in the Mediterranean Panagiotis Theodoropoulos In 602, the Byzantine emperor Maurice was dethroned and executed in a mili- tary coup, leading to the takeover of Phokas. In response to that, the Sasanian Great King Khosrow ii (590–628), who had been helped by Maurice in 591 to regain his throne from the usurper Bahram, launched a war of retribution against Byzantium. In 604 taking advantage of the revolt of the patrikios Nars- es against Phokas, he captured the city of Dara. By 609, the Persians had com- pleted the conquest of Byzantine Mesopotamia with the capitulation of Edes- sa.1 A year earlier, in 608, the Exarch of Carthage Herakleios the Elder rose in revolt against Phokas. His nephew Niketas campaigned against Egypt while his son, also named Herakleios, led a fleet against Constantinople. Herakleios managed to enter the city and kill Phokas. He was crowned emperor on Octo- ber 5, 610.2 Ironically, three days later on October 8, 610, Antioch, the greatest city of the Orient, surrendered to the Persians who took full advantage of the Byzantine civil strife.3 A week later Apameia, another great city in North Syria, came to terms with the Persians. Emesa fell in 611. Despite two Byzantine counter at- tacks, one led by Niketas in 611 and another led by Herakleios himself in 613, the Persian advance seemed unstoppable. Damascus surrendered in 613 and a year later Caesarea and all other coastal towns of Palestine fell as well.

  • View of Late Antiquity In
    ARAM, 23 (2011) 489-508. doi: 10.2143/ARAM.23.0.2959670 WALLS OF THE DECAPOLIS Dr. ROBERT SMITH (Mid-Atlantic Christian University) Walls were important to the citizens of the Decapolis cities.1 While the world- view of Late Antiquity interpreted the rise and fall of cities as ultimately being the result of divine intervention, the human construction of defensive walls was still a major civic concern. Walls, like temples, honored a city’s patron deities and fostered a sense of local identity and well-being. These structures, long a bulwark of independence and status for cities in the Levant,2 were present in the Hellenizing pre-Decapolis cities, permitted in the Decapolis during the Roman period and were promoted during the subsequent Byzantine period as well. Instead of fostering local rebellion against a distant Rome or later Con- stantinople, the construction of Decapolis city walls, like other components of the imperial architectural palette, was a strategic asset that served to cultur- ally unify the region’s ethnically and linguistically diverse population.3 The “spiritual walls” of cultural solidarity, established in Hellenism and continued by Rome, together with the physical walls of the Decapolis cities helped to preserve their identities for centuries. The Roman and Byzantine empires depended upon strong loyal cities like those of the Decapolis to sustain their rule in the Levant. WALLS OF PRE-DECAPOLIS CITIES IN THE PRE-ROMAN ERA Cities that would be counted as part of the Decapolis in the Roman Era were typically established in the Hellenistic era on the remains of ancient settle- ments.

  • Gold Jewellery in Ptolemaic, Roman and Byzantine Egypt. Jack M
    Gold Jewellery in Ptolemaic, Roman and Byzantine Egypt. Jack M. Ogden ABSTRACT This study deals with the gold jewellery made and worn in Egypt during the millennium between Alexander the Great's invasion of Egypt and the Arab conquest. Funerary jewellery is largely ignored as are ornaments in the traditional, older Egyptian styles. The work draws upon a wide variety of evidence, in particular the style, composition and construction of surviving jewellery, the many repre- sentations of jewellery in wear, such as funerary portraits, and the numerous literary references from the papyri and from Classical and early Christian writers. Egypt, during the period considered, has provided a greater wealth of such information than anywhere else in the ancient or medieval world and this allows a broadly based study of jewellery in a single ancient society. The individual chapters deal with a brief historical background; the information available from papyri and other literary sources; the sources, distribution, composition and value of gold; the origins and use of mineral and organic gem materials; the economic and social organisation of the goldsmiths' trade; and the individual jewellery types, their chronology, manufacture and significance. This last section is covered in four chapters which deal respectively with rings, earrings, necklets and pendants, and bracelets and armiets. These nine chapters are followed by a detailed bibliography and a list of the 511 illustrations. Gold Jewellery in Ptolemaic, Roman and Byzantine Egypt. In two volumes Volume 1 - Text. Jack M.

  • Calendar of Roman Events
    Introduction Steve Worboys and I began this calendar in 1980 or 1981 when we discovered that the exact dates of many events survive from Roman antiquity, the most famous being the ides of March murder of Caesar. Flipping through a few books on Roman history revealed a handful of dates, and we believed that to fill every day of the year would certainly be impossible. From 1981 until 1989 I kept the calendar, adding dates as I ran across them. In 1989 I typed the list into the computer and we began again to plunder books and journals for dates, this time recording sources. Since then I have worked and reworked the Calendar, revising old entries and adding many, many more. The Roman Calendar The calendar was reformed twice, once by Caesar in 46 BC and later by Augustus in 8 BC. Each of these reforms is described in A. K. Michels’ book The Calendar of the Roman Republic. In an ordinary pre-Julian year, the number of days in each month was as follows: 29 January 31 May 29 September 28 February 29 June 31 October 31 March 31 Quintilis (July) 29 November 29 April 29 Sextilis (August) 29 December. The Romans did not number the days of the months consecutively. They reckoned backwards from three fixed points: The kalends, the nones, and the ides. The kalends is the first day of the month. For months with 31 days the nones fall on the 7th and the ides the 15th. For other months the nones fall on the 5th and the ides on the 13th.

  • Religion: Christianity and Zoroastrianism
    This page intentionally left blank ROME AND PERSIA IN LATE ANTIQUITY The foundation of the Sasanian Empire in ad 224 established a formidable new power on the Roman Empire’s Eastern frontier, and relations over the next four centuries proved turbulent. This book provides a chronological narrative of their relationship, supported by a substantial collection of translated sources illustrating important themes and structural patterns. The political goals of the two sides, their military confrontations and their diplomatic solutions are dis- cussed, as well as the common interests between the two powers. Special attention is given to the situation of Arabia and Armenia, to economic aspects, the protection of the frontiers, the religious life in both empires and the channels of communication between East and West. In its wide chronological scope, the study explores the role played by the Sasanians in the history of the ancient Near East. The book will prove invaluable for students and non-specialists interested in late antiquity and early Byzantium, and it will be equally useful for specialists on these subjects. beate dignas is Fellow and Tutorin Ancient History at Somerville College, Oxford.
