Gent, ……………………………………………… (datum) ……………………………………………… (handtekening) Universiteit Gent Examencommissie Geschiedenis Academiejaar 2013-2014 2 Woord vooraf Bijna een jaar is verstreken sinds een voorzichtige start werd gemaakt aan deze thesis. Het onderzoeken en schrijven ervan in het voorbije jaar heeft me veel bijgeleerd, op vlak van kennis, op vlak van de wetenschap van het historisch onderzoek, en op andere vlakken. Deze thesis vormt een culminatie van de voorbije vier jaar die ik met veel plezier heb doorgebracht in de opleiding tot eerst Bachelor, daarna Master in de Geschiedenis aan de Universiteit Gent enerzijds, en van mijn interesse in en passie voor geschiedenis anderzijds. Daarbij kent de Romeinse geschiedenis, en meer bepaald het Romeinse leger, een speciale plaats. Ik wil hier verder geen epistel afsteken – de lezer zal al een vette kluif hebben aan de thesis zelf – maar toekomen aan het belangrijkste onderdeel van dit woord vooraf. Er zijn namelijk enkele mensen die ik zou willen bedanken. Eerst en vooral mijn promotor, professor Koenraad Verboven. Na mij ook begeleid te hebben in het schrijven van mijn bachelorpaper vorig jaar, en daarvoor nog bij Historische Praktijk 2: Oefening Oudheid, bood hij me na mijn bachelorpresentatie de kans om onder zijn auspiciën ook mijn thesis te schrijven. Ik ben dankbaar op dat aanbod ingegaan. Het voorbije jaar heeft hij me geholpen in alle aspecten van mijn onderzoek en het neerschrijven van mijn resultaten, ook al bevond het Kanaal zich het grootste deel van de tijd tussen ons, gezien zijn onderzoeksverblijf in Oxford. Dat hield hem niet tegen mij op de best mogelijke manier te begeleiden. Ik heb heel erg veel van hem bijgeleerd en ik wil hem dan ook bij deze van harte bedanken voor de kans die hij me geboden heeft, en voor de vele suggesties, opmerkingen en verbeteringen die hij me doorstuurde. Ook wil ik de leescommissarissen dr. Wouter Vanacker en drs. Marijn Vandenberghe bedanken om de tijd te nemen om mijn thesis te lezen en te beoordelen. Vervolgens wil ik het personeel van de universiteitsbibliotheken in zowel Gent als Leuven bedanken, die mijn zoektochten naar artikels, boeken en bronnenuitgaven dikwijls vergemakkelijkt hebben. Een innig woord van dank gaat uit naar de vriend(inn)en en familieleden die delen van deze thesis nagelezen hebben. Ik wil me ook bij hen excuseren dat ik niet al hun suggesties heb opgenomen. Erg bedankt voor het nalezen aan (in alfabetische volgorde): Tine Bussens, Birgit Janssen, Marilien Maes, Winke Minnebo, mijn vriendin Hannah Peersman, Elia Smet, Lieve Van Daele en mijn vader Rik Van Daele. Een algemeen woord van dank gaat uit naar al mijn vrienden, familie en kennissen die steeds met interesse reageerden bij het horen over mijn thesis. Extra dank gaat uit naar alle vier mijn grootouders, die met veel bezorgdheid en interesse de vooruitgang van mijn thesis op de voet volgden. Ik wil mijn ouders bedanken voor de kans die ze mij hebben gegeven om deze studie te volgen. Ze zijn mij doorheen de voorbije vier jaar blijven motiveren en hebben mij steeds gesteund. Mama en papa, merci. Ten slotte wil ik mijn vriendin Hannah bedanken voor de onvoorwaardelijke steun die ze mij heeft geboden tijdens het schrijven van deze thesis en tijdens de rest van mijn studie. Zonder haar was dit nooit gelukt. 3 Inhoudsopgave Woord vooraf ..................................................................................................................................................... 3 Inhoudsopgave .................................................................................................................................................. 4 Lijst van afkortingen, tabellen, afbeeldingen en bijlagen ................................................................. 5 Inleiding .............................................................................................................................................................. 7 Probleemstelling ................................................................................................................................................. 8 Eerder werk over de auxilia en haar officieren .................................................................................. 10 Romanisering? .................................................................................................................................................. 12 Methode ............................................................................................................................................................... 14 Bronnen: hun mogelijkheden en hun problemen .............................................................................. 15 Structuur ............................................................................................................................................................. 17 Hoofdstuk 1: Afkomst en carrière ........................................................................................................... 19 1.2 De afkomst van officieren ..................................................................................................................... 24 1.3 Carrière ........................................................................................................................................................ 31 1.4 Conclusie ...................................................................................................................................................... 48 Hoofdstuk 2: In dienst ................................................................................................................................. 51 2.1 Cultuurshock? ‘Romanisering’ tijdens de diensttijd .................................................................. 51 2.2 Verworven kapitaal: taal, vaardigheden, en geld ........................................................................ 59 2.3 Militair leven als stadsleven.

    IMMUNES AND PRJNCIPALES AT ULPIA TRAIANA SARMIZEGETUSA GEORGE CUPCEA IMMUNES ŞI PRINCIP ALES LA ULPIA TRAIANA SARMISEGETUSA Rezumat: Studiul se apleacă asupra identificării soldaţilor romani ce au ocupat vreun grad inferior în armata romană, atestaţi în capitala Daciei romane, Ulpia Traiana Sarmizegetusa. După cum se ştie, elementul militar a avut un rol foarte important în crearea Sarmizegetusei şi în transplantarea civilizaţiei romane în nou-născuta provincie. Sunt atestate unsprezece astfel de personaje, ocupând doar şapte ranguri, aflate sub cel de centurion. Rangurile inferioare atestate sunt: scriniarius praefectorum praetorio, actarius, librarius a rationibus, adiutor offici corniculariorum, frumentarius, beneficiarius consularis şi signifer. Dintre aceste grade, două sunt immunes, ambele parte din officium al unui ofiţer superior, şi cinci principales, din care patru fac parte dintr-un astfel de officium. După lăsarea la vatră, cinci dintre personaje fac parte din ordo decurionum, doi dintre ei fiind chiar într-o situaţie specială, decurioni în absenţă. Abstract: This paper identifies the Roman soldiers that occupied any inferior rank in the army, attested in the Dacian provincial capital, Ulpia Traiana Sarmizegetusa. The military element held a very important role in the creation of this major city, and, in the empowerment of the Roman civilization in the newly-created province. We have eleven such characters, attested in Sarmizegetusa, on seven different ranks, each one under the centurionate. These ranks are: scriniarius praefectorum praetorio, actarius, librarius a rationibus, adiutor offici corniculariorum, frumentarius, beneficiarius consularis and signifer. Out of them, two are immunes, both part of the officium of a superior officer, and five are principales, faur of them part of an officium.

Oleson, Department of Greek and Roman Studies Supervisor Dr. Gregory D. Rowe, Department of Greek and Roman Studies Departmental Member During the last stages of the Marcommani Wars in the late second century A.D., Roman literary sources recorded that the Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius was planning to annex the Germanic territory of the Marcomannic and Quadic tribes. This work will propose that Marcus Aurelius was going to create a province called Marcomannia. The thesis will be supported by archaeological data originating from excavations in the Roman installation at Mušov, Moravia, Czech Republic. The investigation will examine the history of the non-Roman region beyond the northern Danubian frontier, the character of Roman occupation and creation of other Roman provinces on the Danube, and consult primary sources and modern research on the topic of Roman expansion and empire building during the principate. iv Table of Contents Supervisory Committee .....................................................................................................

  • Historical Jesus a Contemporary Roman Perspective
    Historical Jesus A Contemporary Roman Perspective Jason Janich NewLife906.com 1. Thallus 55 A.D. Thallus was a Greek Historian around 55A.D. who wrote a three volume account of the Eastern Mediterranean area. Although his works have been lost, fragments of it exist in the citations of others. As quoted by Julius Africansus (160 A.D -240 A.D.) On the whole world there pressed a most fearful darkness; and the rocks were rent by an earthquake, and many places in Judea and other districts were thrown down. This darkness Thallus, in the third book of his History, calls as appears to me without a reason, an eclipse of the sun. (Donaldson, A. R. (1973). Julius Africanus, Exant Writings, XVIII in the Ante- Nicene Fathers, ed Vol. VI. Grand RApids: Eerdmans.) What can we establish from Thallus’ writing? - The Christian Gospel was known in the Mediterranean by the middle of the first century – this is around AD 52, probably prior to the writing of the gospels. - There was a widespread darkness in the land, implied to have taken place during Jesus’ crucifixion. - Unbelievers offered rationalistic explanations for certain Christian teachings. 1 | P a g e 2. Pliny the Younger (61 A.D. – 113 A.D.) Letters 10.96-97 Pliny was the Governor of Bithynia in Asia Minor and is a noted historian with at least 10 volumes. In one letter he writes to the Emperor Trajan seeking counsel as to how to treat Christians. In the case of those who were denounced to me as Christians, I have observed the following procedure: I interrogated these as to whether they were Christians; those who confessed I interrogated a second and a third time, threatening them with punishment; those who persisted I ordered executed.

  • POLITICS, PHILOSOPHY, LITERATURE Paolo Desideri
    CHAPTER TEN DIO’S EXILE: POLITICS, PHILOSOPHY, LITERATURE Paolo Desideri Many passages of the speeches (or ƭɝƥưƫ) which make up the oeuvre of the Bithynian ƷƫƭɝƴưƷưƳ Dio, who lived between the end of the fi rst and the beginning of the second century AD,1 contain references to an exile (Ʒƶƥə) which the author had experienced in previous years.2 Although the nature and extent of this exile and even the question whether it hap- pened have been much discussed among modern scholars,3 my opin- ion remains that a technical measure of banishment was in fact taken. This conviction of mine rests fi rst of all on the external evidence for Dio’s life. Dio’s contemporary Pliny the Younger, whose rich testimony is absolutely consistent with Dio’s own remarks,4 does not mention Dio’s exile at all (there was, however, no reason why he should!), but the event 1 Cf. Desideri (1978), Jones (1978). A still fundamental work is von Arnim (1898). For a brief review (with a bibliographical update) see Desideri (1994) 841–56; for an exhaustive outline of Dio’s reception in modern times see Swain (2000b) 13–48. 2 Cf. Desideri (1978) 187–200, Jones (1978) 45–55. Recently the problems of Dio’s exile were re-examined by Sidebottom (1996), and more thoroughly by Verrengia (2000) 66–91. An entire chapter of Whitmarsh’s book ((2001b) 156–67) is devoted to Dio’s exile; however, I cannot accept his general thesis that “the trope of exile was used to construct identity in the Greek literature of the early principate” (p.

  • Representations of Veterans in the Imperial Cult in Gallia Narbonensis, 46 BC-79 AD

Moreover, Italy has twenty-eight colonies founded under my auspices which have grown to be famous and populous during my lifetime.’2 The quote above comes from the Res Gestae divi Augusti, the works or deeds of the deified Augustus, published after his death in 14 AD. Much like the rest of the Res Gestae, the quote above contains a boasting and propaganda element: Augustus has settled soldiers in colonies all over the world and they have all become great and grew very large. This gives an insight into the image that Augustus wanted to portray about his deeds and himself. Although Augustus has settled veterans in many colonies, he was definitely not the first to do so, as the process of establishing veteran colonies already started around 100 BC.

  • Expulsion from the Senate of the Roman Republic, C.319–50 BC
    Ex senatu eiecti sunt: Expulsion from the Senate of the Roman Republic, c.319–50 BC Lee Christopher MOORE University College London (UCL) PhD, 2013 1 Declaration I, Lee Christopher MOORE, 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 indicated in the thesis. 2 Thesis abstract One of the major duties performed by the censors of the Roman Republic was that of the lectio senatus, the enrolment of the Senate. As part of this process they were able to expel from that body anyone whom they deemed unequal to the honour of continued membership. Those expelled were termed ‘praeteriti’. While various aspects of this important and at-times controversial process have attracted scholarly attention, a detailed survey has never been attempted. The work is divided into two major parts. Part I comprises four chapters relating to various aspects of the lectio. Chapter 1 sees a close analysis of the term ‘praeteritus’, shedding fresh light on senatorial demographics and turnover – primarily a demonstration of the correctness of the (minority) view that as early as the third century the quaestorship conveyed automatic membership of the Senate to those who held it. It was not a Sullan innovation. In Ch.2 we calculate that during the period under investigation, c.350 members were expelled. When factoring for life expectancy, this translates to a significant mean lifetime risk of expulsion: c.10%. Also, that mean risk was front-loaded, with praetorians and consulars significantly less likely to be expelled than subpraetorian members.

  • Matemáticas Respecto a Los Castra Romanos, Relativas a Su Construcción1
    ISSN 2254-6901 | Vínculos de Historia, núm. 5 (2016) | pp. 196-211 http://dx.doi.org/10.18239/vdh.v0i5.012 Matemáticas respecto a los castra romanos, relativas a su construcción1 Mathematics and the construction of the Roman castra José Francisco Fernández-Tejeda Vela Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia (UNED) Fecha de recepción: 02.08.2015 Fecha de aceptación: 17.11.2015 RESUMEN Se señala que los distintos tipos de campamentos, tienen relación con la duración de la permanencia en ellos. A la vez se explica, sucintamente, la construcción de un campamento romano. Se propone que el número de soldados munifices, presenta un valor óptimo para asumir un riesgo mínimo por parte de la unidad militar. También se razona respecto a que la descripción realizada por Polibio, no se corresponde con los campamentos que han llegado a nuestros días, y se justifica que la gran mayoría de los campamentos conocidos, son castra necessaria, que no siguen el modelo canónico. PALABRAS CLAVE: campamento romano, riesgo constructivo, soldados munifices, soldados immunes, esfuerzo constructivo ABSTRACT We point out here that the differences between the three types of Roman camps were related to the duration of the stay in them. The construction of a Roman camp is also briefly explained. It is proposed that the number of soldiers munifices is optimal in order to assume minimal risk on the part of the military unit. It is also argued that the description given by Polybius does not correspond with the camps that have survived to the present day and we justify the fact that the vast majority of the camps known are castra necessaria and do not follow the canonical model.
