Circulating Imperial Ideology: Coins As Propaganda in the Roman World Circulating Imperial Ideology: Coins as Propaganda in the Roman World Corey J. Ellithorpe A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2017 Approved by: Richard J.A. Talbert Fred Naiden Marcus Bull Luca Grillo David Wigg-Wolf © 2017 Corey J. Ellithorpe ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Corey J. Ellithorpe: Circulating Imperial Ideology: Coins as Propaganda in the Roman World. (Under the direction of Richard J.A. Talbert) This dissertation examines the role of Roman Imperial coinage in the communication of Roman ideology and propaganda. From a database of more than 300,000 Roman Imperial coins of the Principate, each containing detailed archaeological data and linked to GIS-mapping software, a variety of interconnected analyses are conducted to provide a better understanding of how Roman coinage was used a medium of Imperial propaganda. The body of numismatic evidence of imperial Rome consists of millions of surviving individual coins, out of which thousands of iconographical combinations of type and corresponding inscriptions have been identified. I examine the role that coinage played as a mobile medium of politically persuasive communication for Rome to numerous groups. Within a larger political propaganda program at work during the early Roman Empire, coinage functioned as the most ubiquitous, tangible, immediate, variable, and integrated element. I argue that coinage functioned as a conscious instrument of political propaganda that enabled varying messages to be purposefully disseminated to different geographical regions and to distinct ranks of Roman society. This was a structured and efficient communication machine capable of fine-tuning the presentation of a particular message to meet the emperor’s current concerns. Moreover, I argue that a desire to manipulate public opinion is the mainspring for the vast range of coinage types found in Roman imperial coinage. iii To my wife, Sarah. None of this could have been achieved without you. iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS There are many people without whom this dissertation would not have been possible. I owe the greatest of thanks to my graduate advisor and chair of my dissertation committee, William Rand Kenan Distinguished Professor Richard J.A. Talbert. It was during the fall of 2008 when I first made contact with him expressing keen interest in pursuing a PhD in ancient history under him at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. After a series of emails, he invited me to visit the campus, sit in on some classes, meet affiliated faculty, and more importantly to have the chance to meet face-to face to discuss my research interests and other matters related to the graduate program in greater depth. I immediately knew upon the beginning of this visit that UNC was the institution that I wanted to attend, and, more importantly, that I wanted to have the opportunity to be a student of Talbert’s. He possessed all of the desired attributes that one seeks in a potential advisor: impressively erudite; heavily published; a regularly-cited scholar whose name is found in the bibliographies of some of the field’s most important works; and one whose research demonstrates a long history of being involved in many projects at the cutting edge of the discipline. Yet, aside from possessing these rare qualities that place him in the company of a small handful of the most influential contemporary scholars of ancient history, it was a far rarer combination of attributes that made instantly clear just how lucky and privileged his students surely are: his approachability, kindness, deep care and concern for those training under him, and the overwhelming adoration that graduate students and undergrads at UNC hold for him. I should mention, that I owe a deep thanks to the graduate students of his in 2008 (Brian Turner; Lance v Lagroue; Graeme Ward; and Ross Twele) who took the time to inform me of just how privileged they all were. Lastly, he also possessed the rarer-still quality to be able to be honest when such honesty may be hard to hear. For this, I am most grateful. I was not admitted into the program that next year, but Professor Talbert kept in contact with me, and regarding my application, informed me that I was not yet ready for graduate school. He told me that I should consider a post baccalaureate program in Greek and Latin to increase my ancient language training. I did just that. It was then that I attended the University of Pennsylvania for an intense year-and-half of intensive Greek and Latin training. I applied again to UNC, as well as to four terminal MA programs. I was accepted to all four and was wait-listed for the PhD program at UNC. Not surprisingly, those offered direct admission under Talbert accepted, and I had only the four MA programs before me. Still yet, Professor Talbert advised me regarding the potential MA programs. After a series of conversations with him, as well as my wife and family, UArizona was (rightly) believed to be the best next step. During my two years at UArizona, Talbert and I maintained contact. During the application season for fall 2012, I had a variety of acceptances. There was no conflict in choices once I had heard back from UNC. During the formative stages of this dissertation and throughout the various chapter drafts, Professor Talbert provided, always, the most thorough of commentary and suggestions. I should apologize to him for my (often) long-winded and periphrastic style, which he had to suffer through and propose countless edits in order to bring the dissertation to its current state. I cannot offer enough thanks nor express enough gratitude to him for his tireless and diligent efforts in ensuring that this dissertation arrives at the completed form that it has today. vi I also owe great thanks to David Wigg-Wolf, the only professional numismatist on my dissertation committee. He first advised me during the summer seminar at the American Numismatic Society in 2011, for which he was the visiting scholar. David is not only responsible for providing the most valuable comments and suggestions for the appropriate scientific approach to this dissertation, but also for initially sparking my deep love and scholarly interest in the field of numismatics. I also owe a debt of gratitude to the other members of the dissertation committee, Distinguished Professor Marcus Bull, Professor Fred Naiden, and Professor Luca Grillo, who, though while only classified as ‘readers,’ provided a great deal of insight and comments for me to consider throughout the last three years. I owe deep thanks to Vaclav Shatillo, my friend and former colleague in the terminal MA program in Classics at UArizona for offering translation aid in the otherwise impenetrable Soviet-era numismatic scholarship, all composed in Russian. To the following people or organizations, too, I owe thanks: Professor Donald Reid for masterly leadership of Hist-905: Dissertation Design, as well as my fellow classmates during the Spring 2014 semester. The library staff at UNC’s Davis Library, in particular those who work in the Interlibrary Loan Department, who helped to scan and deliver 693 various works for me. Parts of this dissertation were presented in draft at various conferences over the years, and many thanks are owed to those who offered comments, criticisms, and suggestions on them. XV International Numismatic Congress in Taormina, Sicily (September 2015): Nathan Elkins, Cristian Găzdac, Florian Haymann, Ben Hellings, Kamil Kopij, Katarzyna Lach, Johannes Nollé, David Schwei, and Philippa Walton. King’s College, London (May 2015): Laura Forster, vii Patrick Griffith, and Peter Heather. Institut für Klassische Archäologie, Eberhard Karls Universität, Tübingen (October 2015): Stefan Krmnicek and Ioannis Mylonopoulos. Lastly, I would like to thank my family. Without their undying support and love, I could not have survived the years of stress and strain that graduate school and the composition of a dissertation present. Thank you all. viii TABLE OF CONTENTS ABBREVIATIONS ..................................................................................................................... xiii GLOSSARY ................................................................................................................................ xxi Introduction ................................................................................................................................. xxv Outline of Chapters .............................................................................................................. xxxiv Chapter One ...................................................................................................................... xxxv Chapter Two...................................................................................................................... xxxv Chapter Three................................................................................................................... xxxvi Chapter Four .................................................................................................................... xxxvi Chapter Five ..................................................................................................................... xxxvi Chapter Six...................................................................................................................... xxxvii The Database

  • 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.

  • The Antonine Wall, the Roman Frontier in Scotland, Was the Most and Northerly Frontier of the Roman Empire for a Generation from AD 142
    Breeze The Antonine Wall, the Roman frontier in Scotland, was the most and northerly frontier of the Roman Empire for a generation from AD 142. Hanson It is a World Heritage Site and Scotland’s largest ancient monument. The Antonine Wall Today, it cuts across the densely populated central belt between Forth (eds) and Clyde. In The Antonine Wall: Papers in Honour of Professor Lawrence Keppie, Papers in honour of nearly 40 archaeologists, historians and heritage managers present their researches on the Antonine Wall in recognition of the work Professor Lawrence Keppie of Lawrence Keppie, formerly Professor of Roman History and Wall Antonine The Archaeology at the Hunterian Museum, Glasgow University, who spent edited by much of his academic career recording and studying the Wall. The 32 papers cover a wide variety of aspects, embracing the environmental and prehistoric background to the Wall, its structure, planning and David J. Breeze and William S. Hanson construction, military deployment on its line, associated artefacts and inscriptions, the logistics of its supply, as well as new insights into the study of its history. Due attention is paid to the people of the Wall, not just the ofcers and soldiers, but their womenfolk and children. Important aspects of the book are new developments in the recording, interpretation and presentation of the Antonine Wall to today’s visitors. Considerable use is also made of modern scientifc techniques, from pollen, soil and spectrographic analysis to geophysical survey and airborne laser scanning. In short, the papers embody present- day cutting edge research on, and summarise the most up-to-date understanding of, Rome’s shortest-lived frontier.

Dear President Brown: The U.S. Department of Education, Office for Civil Rights (OCR), has resolved the above- referenced complaint against InterCoast Colleges (the College). The Student alleged that the College discriminated against her on the basis of sex.1 Specifically, OCR investigated: 1. Whether the College responded promptly and equitably to the Student’s complaints of sexual harassment; and, 2. Whether the Student was harassed on the basis of her sex when her teacher asked her who she was attracted to, and forced the Student out of her class when the Student did not show up to a potluck. OCR is responsible for enforcing Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 (Title IX), as amended, 20 U.S.C. § 1681 et seq., and its implementing regulation at 34 C.F.R. Part 106, which prohibit discrimination on the basis of sex in programs and activities receiving financial assistance from the U.S. Department of Education (the Department). The College is a recipient of financial assistance from the Department. Therefore, OCR had jurisdiction to investigate this matter under Title IX. To investigate this complaint, OCR conducted interviews and reviewed documents and other information provided by the Student and the College. The applicable legal standards, the facts gathered during the investigation, and the reasons for OCR’s determinations and the terms of the Resolution Agreement (Agreement) entered into by the College are summarized below.

The period of the Principate was characterised by a number of changes in nearly all areas of public life, i.e. in the political, economic, social and reli- gious sphere. These occurred as an unavoidable, and in some cases absolutely natural result of systemic transformations. The new model of government, initiated by Augustus, where power was in the hands of the ruler with little involvement of other state authorities, required appropriate principles to be introduced for the functioning of both the office of Princeps and other co- -governing centres. Although Augustus sought to abandon the republican order, he was well aware of the fact that he would only succeed if his power was se- cured within the frames of this system1. Hence, he maintained Plebeian As- semblies and the Senate, as well as most of the clerical positions, although he divested all of those bodies of many of their previous powers. This was par- ticularly clear in the case of the magistrates whose functions he assumed him- self or delegated to offices which he established2. The principles in accordance with which these were exercised differed in almost every respect from the models existing in the Republic. This applied in the same way to rotation in office, collegiality, gratuitousness and eligibility. Different rules were also followed in selecting candidates for the specific positions. Seeking to limit the power of the Senate, Augustus decided to establish a counter-measure for this body by filling imperial offices mainly with representatives of Ordo Equester3.

  • ACCOUNTING and AUDITING in ROMAN SOCIETY Lance Elliot
    ACCOUNTING AND AUDITING IN ROMAN SOCIETY Lance Elliot LaGroue A dissertation thesis submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2014 Approved by: Richard Talbert Fred Naiden Howard Aldrich Terrence McIntosh © 2014 Lance Elliot LaGroue ALL RIGHTS RESERVED II ABSTRACT Lance LaGroue: Accounting and Auditing in Roman Society (Under the direction of Richard Talbert) This dissertation approaches its topic from the pathbreaking dual perspective of a historian and of an accountant. It contributes to our understanding of Roman accounting in several notable ways. The style and approach of Roman documents are now categorized to reflect differing levels of complexity and sophistication. With the aid of this delineation, and by comparison with the practices of various other premodern societies, we can now more readily appreciate the distinct attributes present at each level in Roman accounting practices. Additionally, due to the greater accessibility of Roman accounting documents in recent years – in particular, through John Matthews’ work on the Journey of Theophanes, Dominic Rathbone’s study of the Heroninos archive, and the reading of the Vindolanda tablets -- it becomes easier to appreciate such differences among the few larger caches of accounting documents. Moreover, the dissertation seeks to distinguish varying grades of accountant. Above all, it emphasizes the need to separate the functions of accounting and auditing, and to gauge the essential characteristics and roles of both. In both regards, it is claimed, the Roman method showed competency. The dissertation further shows how economic and accounting theory has influenced perceptions about Roman accounting practices.
