It places Roman decision-making and action within its proper context by emphasizing the role that Greek polities and Illyrian tribes played in both the outbreak and conclusion of the war. It argues that the primary motivation behind the Roman decision to declare war against the Ardiaei in 229 was to secure the very profitable trade routes linking Brundisium to the eastern shore of the Adriatic. It was in fact the failure of the major Greek powers to limit Ardiaean piracy that led directly to Roman intervention. In the earliest phase of trans-Adriatic engagement Rome was essentially uninterested in expansion or establishing a formal hegemony in the Greek East and maintained only very loose ties to the polities of the eastern Adriatic coast. -

According to Antique Historians and the Paschal Chronicle the Scythian Empire Or the Federation of Nations Was Founded Around 3660 BC
Summary DOCLEA AND PRAEVALITANA According to antique historians and the Paschal Chronicle the Scythian Empire or the federation of nations was founded around 3660 BC. The Scythians started to colonize the Balkans around 1800 BC and this mission ended around 1500 BC. Around 1000 BC the Kimmerian Scythians attacked Italy where they formeded their territories. The oldest Scythian Balkan state was Thracia which was created by the Pedases people around 3500 BC, and the Egyptian sources are also mentioning it as an enemy state around 2000 BC. Around 1600 BC a powerful cen- tral Balkan state was created and its name was Dar- dania. The Egyptian sources of 1452 BC from the period of the reign of Amenophis II and of 1240 from the period of the reign of Ramses II are men- tioning the names of Scythian Balkan nations: the Moesi, the Dardanians, the Thracian Pedases, and the Odrysae people. The Scythian Docleatae belonged to the Parthian Scythians; part of them descended to the Balkans in the second half of the second millennium BC. 649 Vojislav D. Nikčević: DOCLEA AND PRAEVALITANA They created two cities around 1040 BC: Doclea and Scodra. On the territory of today’s Montenegro the Docleatae founded three cities: Medun, Risinium (Risan) and Budua (Budva). In VII and VI century BC the powerful Kingdom of Pontus of the Aorses created its federal unit in the middle Dalmatia and the Scythian Balkan federation known as the Kingdom of the Danube Scythians ruled by the Scytho-Sarmatian Autariatae. This state-alliance included the Kingdom of Pannonia with its capital Sirmium, the alliance con- sisted of the Veneti and the Liburnians, the Kingdom of Aorses, kingdoms of Dardania and Moesia and the agreed province of two kingdoms – Dacia with Trivalia (Praevaliana, future Praevalitana) as well as Scythia Minor. -
Why Illyrian King Agron and Queen Teuta Came to a Bad End and Who Was Ballaios?
From the history of ancient Rhizon/Risinium: Why Illyrian king Agron and queen Teuta came to a bad end and who was Ballaios? Piotr Dyczek*1* Center for Research on the Antiquity of Southeastern Europe University of Warsaw In 2001 the Center for Research on the Antiquity of Southeastern Europe of the University of Warsaw opened a new archaeological excavation project in the Republic of Montenegro. The site lies in the territory of modern Risan, on the coast of the northern branch of Kotor Bay [Fig. 1]. The name of the town appears in different written sources in variants corresponding to the period: Rhizon, Rhizinium, Risinium, but always echo- ing in the modern name of Risan. Consequently, the identification of the location did not raise any doubts already in the 19th century, but the name itself is of unclear origin. It may have been derived either from the Greek rhizon, that is, root or from rhizotom, a grass or to be more precise, a medicinal herb which still grows in proliferation around the locality (cf. Ivčević 1999: 101, Dyczek 2008: 155–156). Arthur Evans was the first to explore the area in the 1870s (Evans 1884: 42ff.) and he concluded that the plateau Fig. 1. General location of Risan * This paper was prepared with support from the Lanckoroński Foundation. Classica Orientalia 157 Piotr Dyczek situated at the foot of the Građine hill which rises to an altitude of 207 m, was the site of intensive settlement in antiquity. Risan is a small locality today, but it was once the most important center in the whole bay and a significant player in the history of Illyria and its relations with the Roman Republic. -

Историјска збивања у којима се помињу датују у другу половину IV века пре н.е. где се они не одликују ни снагом ни величином. После овога датума више се не помињу у из- ворима. Стога је логично закључити да њихове звездане часове треба датовати пре IV. века пре н. е. Према археолозима и модерним историчарима Аутаријати су живели у југоисточној Босни, југозападној Србији и северној Црној Го- ри, односно на територији где је идентификована моћна група старијег гвозденог доба, названа гласиначка, по висоравни Гласинац, источно од Сарајева. Врхунац моћи ове групе датује се од средине 7. до средине 5. века пре н. е., на основу насеља и гробова и великог броја покретних налаза, оружја, керамике, накита, бронзаног увезеног посуђа итд. На основу тога, ових хронолошких и хоролошких паралела, аутор претпо- ставља да би се гласиначка група могла повезати са Аутаријатима. Аутаријати, највеће и најмоћније илирско племе, како их је ока- рактерисао грчки географ Страбон,1 релативно су мало познати у ан- тичким писаним изворима. Једва да се помињу на тридесетак места у вези са збивањима у којима су учествовали или, чешће, у вези са зби- вањима у којима су важнију улогу играли њихови суседи, којима су писци поклонили више пажње. Модерни историчари се нису освртали много на њих, говорили су такође у контексту других догађаја у вези са којима се помињу Аутаријати, има доста размимоилажења у мишље- њима о томе где су Аутаријати живели и када су доживели врхунац моћи о којој говори Страбон. -

The Introduction of the Sarisa in Macedonian Warfare
THE INTRODUCTION OF THE SARISA IN MACEDONIAN WARFARE Abstract: When was the sarisa introduced in Macedonia? Our ancient sources would seem to answer this question rather readily. Polyaenus (IV 2.10) relates that «Philip [II] … made them take up their arms, … carrying helmets, shields, greaves, sarisai, …» Diodorus (XVI 3.1-2) appears to put this in a clear chronological context. After relating the death of Perdiccas and 4000 Macedonians, Diodorus states, «Philip was not panic-stricken by the magnitude of the expected perils, but, bringing together the Macedonians … and … having improved the organization of his forces and equipped the men suitably with weap- ons of war … he devised the compact order and the equipment of the phalanx … and was the first to organize the Macedonian phalanx.» Despite these ancient accounts, it has been argued that Philip did not introduce the sarisa until 336 BC at the earliest. This paper will con- clude that Philip introduced the sarisa into the ranks of both his infan- try and cavalry by the winter of 359/8 BC. When was the sarisa introduced in Macedonia? Our ancient sources would seem to answer this question rather readily. Polyaenus (IV. 2. 10) relates that «Philip [II] … made them take up their arms, … carrying helmets, shields, greaves, sarisai, …,» and Diodorus appears to put this in a clear chronological context. After relating the deaths of Perdiccas III and more than 4000 Macedonians at the hands of Bardylis and the Illyr- ians1 in 359 BC (XVI 2.4-5)2, Diodorus (XVI 3.1-2) states: Philip was not panic-stricken by the magnitude of the expected perils, but, bringing together the Macedonians … and … having improved the 1 While it is generally believed that Bardylis was the king of the Illyrian Dardanians (for example, ELLIS [1980] 38, [1976] 45, 48; HAMMOND [1966] 239-253), PAPAZOGLU (1978) 137 n. -
