0852 Anc.Soc. 01 Kosmetatou PISIDIA AND THE HELLENISTIC KINGS FROM 323 TO 133 BC* Following the death of Alexander the Great (323 BC), and the break- down of his empire (301 BC), the highland region of Pisidia in SW Asia Minor passed under the successive control of all the major Hellenistic kingdoms. Antigonos Monophthalmos, the Ptolemies of Egypt, the Seleucids of Syria, and the Attalids of Pergamon, all became overlords of Pisidia, or at least parts of it, but their efforts to establish a more firm rule over that region met with only partial success. This paper will pro- vide an account of the existing evidence on the relations between the Hellenistic monarchs and individual cities in Pisidia, highlighting the new data, and evaluating the dynastic efforts to establish effective rule over this strategically important, at least in the Hellenistic period, area. THE REGION’S SITUATION Pisidia is situated to the southwestern part of Anatolia from which it is separated by mountains. Its exact boundaries are almost impossible to define; its westernmost edge borders on Lycia and was often considered part of that other region (see map). The area of Milyas which lay south- west, between Lycia and Pisidia, was often a disputed territory that was sometimes seen as belonging to either of them, or even occasionally stood apart1. Moreover, Pisidia’s southernmost cities belonged on occasion to Pamphylia, and the epigraphical evidence suggests that their residents * It is a pleasure to thank Professors H. Hauben, M.

KOSMETATOU were alternatitely considered as both Pamphylians and Pisidians2. Pisidia was provincialized for the first time during the reign of emperor Dio- cletian (3rd century AD), and until then, it was mostly seen as a rather vague geographical area which, over the centuries, came to belong to a large number of territories and their respective rulers. According to the few surviving sources, the Pisidians claimed descent from the mythological hero Solymos, a son of Zeus or, according to a different tradition, of Ares. Solymos, in turn, was considered to be the forefather of the Solymoi, a mysterious, legendary, presumably Pisidian, warrior-people, descendence from whom came, in time, to be claimed by a number of local tribes3. Solymos appears to have been unknown to Homer who only mentions the Solymoi in connection with the myth of Bellerephontes4. The myth of the Solymoi further appears in the writings of a few other ancient authors, most notably Pindar, Euripides, and Antimachos, who did not elaborate on it, however5. According to Stephanos Byzantios, the Solymoi were mainly associated with the region of Milyas in southwestern Pisidia, but they also seem to have played an important role in the official mythology of the cities of Termessos and Ariassos6. Until the advent of the Romans, Pisidia always was a difficult region to control no matter who became its overlord. The ancient Greek authors 2 Termessos is occasionally referred to as Pamphylian territory, particularly in Ptole- maic inscriptions. Cf. infra. 3 The Etymologicum Magnum, 721.43 ff., favours Ares as the father of Solymos, while the other sources prefer Zeus. 4 Homer, Iliad VI 155-205, particularly v. 184, 205. Bellerephontes’s fight against the Solymoi was not originally instigated by his desire to marry the Lycian princess. Follow- ing false accusations of attempting to seduce queen Sthenoboia of Argos, the hero was sent by king Proitos to his father-in-law with a letter, in which Proitos asked for Bellerephontes’s execution. For a full account of the myth and cult of the hero Solymos and his representation on the coinage of Pisidia, see E. KOSMETATOU, The Hero Solymos on the Coinage of Termessos Major, SNR 76 (1997), pp. 41-63. 5 Pindar, Olymp. XIII 129. Cf. also Serv, Aen. V 118; Quintus Smyrnaeus II 122. Euripides, Bellerephon, fr. 303; cf. Stobaios, Flor. 111.9. That Euripides may have talked at some length about the Solymoi is an attractive assumption, given this poet’s love for obscure myths which he often promoted in his tragedies. Cf. E. KOSMETATOU, The Legend of the Hero Pergamus, AncSoc 26 (1995), p. 136. Also: Antimachos, fr. 16 = Schol. Pal. Hom. Od. V 283. Antimachos was credited with an edition of the Homeric epics. Cf. B. WYSS, Antimachi Colophonii reliquiae, Berlin 1936, Praef. 30; V.J. MATTHEWS, Antimachus of Colophon, New York 1996. 6 Stephanos Byzantios, s.v. Solymoi. Cf. also E. KOSMETATOU, art. cit.

POBLOME (eds.), Sagalassos V (Acta Archaeologica Lovaniensia, 10), Leuven 1998 (forthcoming). PISIDIA AND THE HELLENISTIC KINGS 7 described the area as restless, and its inhabitants as rebellious barbarians who spoke their own languages7, fought among themselves, stirred up trouble against every «civilized» invader, and turned their region into a pirate’s haven8. Some modern scholars shared this view at first9. The Pisidians appear for the first time in ancient historiography in the writings of Xenophon, who recorded a Pisidian rebellion against king Artaxerxes in 401 BC. According to the same historian, the Persian king organized a campaign against the Pisidians in order to put an end to their continuous raids and devastation of his territory10. The region became better known to the Greeks following the campaigns of Alexan- der the Great, and the historians who recorded his deeds did not miss the opportunity to stress the difficulties that he and his generals had in subduing it and in dealing with its «barbarous» population11. Recent investigations and discoveries in the area, however, have painted an image of moderately to fully hellenized city-states that cherished their autonomy. 7 For a good overview on the Pisidian language see S. MITCHELL, The Hellenization of Pisidia, MedArch 4 (1991), p. 121; H. BRACKE, Pisidia in Hellenistic Times (334-25 B.C.), in: M. WAELKENS (ed.), Sagalassos I. First General Report on the Survey (1986- 1989) and Excavations (1990-1991) (Acta Archaeologica Lovaniensia, 5); Leuven 1993), p. 23-24. The Pisidian language is briefly discussed by: Arrian, Anab. I 26.4; Strabo XIII 4.17 (631C). Surviving Pisidian texts have been published by: W.M. RAMSAY, Inscrip- tions en langue pisidienne, RUM 1.17 (1895), p. 353-362; J. BORCHARDT – G. NEUMANN – K.

I 27.5-28; 28.1-3, where the word bárbaroi is repeatedly used in connection to the Pisidians; Strabo XII 7.3. A more detailed analysis of these matters fol- lows. 9 For earlier modern assessments of the Pisidians see: A.H.M. JONES, Cities of the Eastern Roman Provinces, Oxford 19712, p. 123-146; B. LEVICK, Roman Colonies in Southern Asia Minor, Oxford 1967, p. 16-20; H. VON AULOCK, Münzen und Städte Pisi- diens I, Tübingen 1977, p. 13-15. Among the most important recent revisionist works are: S. MITCHELL, art. cit. (n. 7), p. 122; ID., Hellenismus in Pisidien, in: E. SCHWERTHEIM, Forschungen in Pisidien (Asia Minor Studien, 6), Münster 1992, p. 1-27; H. BRACKE, art. cit. (n. 12), p. 15-16; M. WAELKENS, Sagalassos. History and Archaeology, in: Sagalas- sos I (n. 7), p. 37-50. 10 Homer mentions the Solymoi who may have been a Pisidian tribe, although Strabo categorically states that they spoke a different, presumably non-Pisidian, lan- guage. See: Homer, Iliad VI 155-210; Strabo XIII 4.16-17 (630-631); S. MITCHELL, art. cit. (n. 7), p. 119. Xenophon, Anab. I 1.11, 2.1, 9.14; Hell. III 1.3. The Pisidians are not mentioned among the subject peoples in the Persian army that invaded Greece during the Persian wars of 490-479 BC. Herodotos mentions the Milyades only; cf. I 173; III 90; VII 77. 11 Arrian, Anab., I 28.1-2; Strabo XII 7.3. 8 E. KOSMETATOU PISIDIA UNDER ALEXANDER THE GREAT AND ANTIGONOS MONOPHTHALMOS (333-301 BC) Pisidia figured early in the struggle among the Diadochoi for domination of Alexander’s empire. In order to fully understand the impact of the rule of the Hellenistic kings on this region, an overview of its relations with Alexander the Great who marked the beginnings of its Helleniza- tion, is in order. In 333 BC Alexander joined Pisidia to Phrygia and assigned their control to Antigonos Monophthalmos, the Macedonian satrap of the newly established satrapy of Greater Phrygia which included, apart from Phrygia, Pisidia as well. Greater Phrygia was a largely unstable region, several of its territories, as well as the regions around them, being only nominally «conquered» by Alexander before he moved on to new adventures.

  • CILICIA: the FIRST CHRISTIAN CHURCHES in ANATOLIA1 Mark Wilson
    CILICIA: THE FIRST CHRISTIAN CHURCHES IN ANATOLIA1 Mark Wilson Summary This article explores the origin of the Christian church in Anatolia. While individual believers undoubtedly entered Anatolia during the 30s after the day of Pentecost (Acts 2:9–10), the book of Acts suggests that it was not until the following decade that the first church was organized. For it was at Antioch, the capital of the Roman province of Syria, that the first Christians appeared (Acts 11:20–26). Yet two obscure references in Acts point to the organization of churches in Cilicia at an earlier date. Among the addressees of the letter drafted by the Jerusalem council were the churches in Cilicia (Acts 15:23). Later Paul visited these same churches at the beginning of his second ministry journey (Acts 15:41). Paul’s relationship to these churches points to this apostle as their founder. Since his home was the Cilician city of Tarsus, to which he returned after his conversion (Gal. 1:21; Acts 9:30), Paul was apparently active in church planting during his so-called ‘silent years’. The core of these churches undoubtedly consisted of Diaspora Jews who, like Paul’s family, lived in the region. Jews from Cilicia were members of a Synagogue of the Freedmen in Jerusalem, to which Paul was associated during his time in Jerusalem (Acts 6:9). Antiochus IV (175–164 BC) hellenized and urbanized Cilicia during his reign; the Romans around 39 BC added Cilicia Pedias to the province of Syria. Four cities along with Tarsus, located along or near the Pilgrim Road that transects Anatolia, constitute the most likely sites for the Cilician churches.

The aS trap Of Western Anatolia And The Greeks Abstract This dissertation explores the extent to which Persian policies in the western satrapies originated from the provincial capitals in the Anatolian periphery rather than from the royal centers in the Persian heartland in the fifth ec ntury BC. I begin by establishing that the Persian administrative apparatus was a product of a grand reform initiated by Darius I, which was aimed at producing a more uniform and centralized administrative infrastructure. In the following chapter I show that the provincial administration was embedded with chancellors, scribes, secretaries and military personnel of royal status and that the satrapies were periodically inspected by the Persian King or his loyal agents, which allowed to central authorities to monitory the provinces. In chapter three I delineate the extent of satrapal authority, responsibility and resources, and conclude that the satraps were supplied with considerable resources which enabled to fulfill the duties of their office. After the power dynamic between the Great Persian King and his provincial governors and the nature of the office of satrap has been analyzed, I begin a diachronic scrutiny of Greco-Persian interactions in the fifth century BC.

Arrive at the Corinth Canal for a brief stop and then continue on to the Acropolis of Corinth. Acro-corinth is the citadel of Corinth. It is situated to the southwest of the ancient city and rises to an elevation of 1883 ft. [574 m.]. Today it is surrounded by walls that are about 1.85 mi. [3 km.] long. The foundations of the fortifications are ancient—going back to the Hellenistic Period. The current walls were built and rebuilt by the Byzantines, Franks, Venetians, and Ottoman Turks. Climb up and visit the fortress. Then proceed to the Ancient city of Corinth. It was to this megalopolis where the apostle Paul came and worked, established a thriving church, subsequently sending two of his epistles now part of the New Testament. Here, we see all of the sites associated with his ministry: the Agora, the Temple of Apollo, the Roman Odeon, the Bema and Gallio’s Seat.

  • ROMANIZATION and SOME CILICIAN CULTS by HUGH ELTON (BIAA)
    ROMANIZATION AND SOME CILICIAN CULTS By HUGH ELTON (BIAA) This paper focuses on two sites from central Cilicia in Anatolia, the Cory­ cian Cave and Kanhdivane, to make some comments about religion and Romanization. From the Corycian Cave, a pair of early third-century AD altars are dedicated to Zeus Korykios, described as Victorious (Epinikios), Triumphant (Tropaiuchos), and the Harvester (Epikarpios), and to Hermes Korykios, also Victorious, Triumphant, and the Harvester. The altars were erected for 'the fruitfulness and brotherly love of the Augusti', suggesting they come from the period before Geta's murder, i.e. between AD 209 and 212. 1 These altars are unremarkable and similar examples are common else­ where, so these altars can be interpreted as showing the homogenising effect of the Roman Empire. But behind these dedications, however, may lie a re­ ligious tradition stretching back to the second millennium BC. At the second site, Kanhdivane, a tomb in the west necropolis was accompanied by a fu­ nerary inscription erected by Marcus Ulpius Knos for himself and his family, probably in the second century AD. Marcus then added, 'but if anyone damages or opens [the tomb] let him pay to the treasury of Zeus 1000 [de­ narii] and to the Moon (Selene) and to the Sun (Helios) above 1000 [denarii] and let him be subject to the curses also of the Underground Gods (Kata­ chthoniai Theoi). ' 2 When he wanted to threaten retribution, Knos turned to a local group of gods. As at the Corycian Cave, Knos' actions may preserve traces of pre-Roman practices, though within a Roman framework.

  • Parerga to the Stadiasmus Patarensis (16): the Roads, Settlements and Territories
    GEPHYRA 13, 2016, 89-118 Parerga to the Stadiasmus Patarensis (16): The Roads, Settlements and Territories Fatih ONUR in memory of Prof. Dr. Sencer ŞAHİN In this paper, I discuss some issues concerning the relationship between roads, settlements and ter- ritories recorded in the Stadiasmus Patarensis (SP). Accepting that the SP was not a journey guide and that it just provided the length of the roads (R) constructed or renovated, and of course meas- ured, between almost all of the major and some minor settlements, I propose: firstly, that the roads between the settlements were from and into the settlements’ town zones; secondly, that the compo- sition of the road list took account of the territories of the settlements; thirdly, that all the settle- ments mentioned in the SP had an independence, which might have varied in different status. The paper opens by discussing the use of prepositions and articles in the SP, before addressing the courses of the roads. I shall then treat the probable start and end points of the roads, and dedicate a final section to the political status of the settlements and the related territorial issues. Before addressing these points, I believe that it should be firstly and precisely determined what was meant by the use of ὁδός on the SP at the top of side B. From the beginning of our research and publications, we have called these road connections, the “routes” (itinera) between settlements, Assoc.
