Politics and Money into the hands of Readers this series is a result of interests and researches conducted by the employees of the Ancient history department at the univer- sity of Silesia in Katowice the scientific profile of our department concerns mainly the history of ancient Rome and, above all, numismatics of this country As far as its assumptions are concerned, this volume differs from the four previous Earlier volumes concerned various aspects of history and, particularly, the history of money in the whole territory of the Roman Empire and neigh- bouring areas the fifth volume relates only to Asia Minor and its issues and includes articles written by both the employees of the Ancient history depart- ment of the university of Silesia and invited guests therefore, the range of presented problems is very wide chronologically-wise, it concerns the issues of Asia Minor in the history of the late Roman Republic and at the time of Roman Empire until early byzantium the subject of this volume refers to the political history of this region as well as to the ideological, cultural, religious and social issues thus, Polish readers gain a wide, panoramic image of the history of Asia Minor during Roman times and, thanks to a wide scientific system represented by the current state of research and plenty of quotations from reference books, knowledge of global studies about this area at the time of ancient Rome Read- ers outside Poland, in turn, acquire insight into main scientific profiles of Polish researches concerning this fascinating region at that time Wiesław Kaczanowicz MAREK JAn OLbrycht The Pontic Kingdom, Arsacid Iran and Armenia: Remarks on the Political Strategy of Mithradates VI Eupator (until 89 b.C.) After Mithradates VI Eupator had noticed the Ro- man expensionary policy in Anatola, he formulated precise war aims and political plans which, in con- temporary terms, may be called a military and politi- cal strategy the Roman state posed a threat of sub- jugating the whole Anatolia coupled with efforts of incorporating them having correctly identified the capabilities and intentions of Rome, Eupator aimed at consolidation inside the Pontic state and strengthening its position vis-à-vis neighbouring powers because his assessment of the above-mentioned threats was correct he was able to fight Rome for more than 25 years to start with, the notion of military strategy needs some explanation Military strategy is defined as the art of designing and managing military cam- paigns but military factors are inseparable from the non-military ones in conducting the war and in schemes designed for securing the peace the starting point of all strategic planning and actions is state policy conducted by its leaders carl von clausewitz, one of the greatest students of strategy, summarised this relation in the following words: “War is not merely a political act, but also a real political instrument, a continuation of policy carried out by other means ” the same ideas flourished in antiquity, too 1 thus, one have 1 E l W h e e l e r: “Methodological limits and the Mirage of Roman Strategy: Part II ” The Journal of Military History, vol 57, no 2, 1993, p 221 14 Marek Jan Olbrycht to distinguish between political and military aspects of strategy Political factors of strategy comprise state policy (sometimes formulated as political programmes) as well as the enemy’s policy and intentions Military strategy deals with the state of the armed forces, aims of campaigns, the theatre of war (including bases of operations and lines of communication), principles of preparedness, and coalition warfare It can be inferred from the source material that the political strategy of Eupator towards Rome was based upon the programme which consisted of the following postulates: 1. Building the kingdom and its economic as well as military ressources 2. Subjugating/conquering new territories in the black Sea area, chiefly beyond the Roman sphere of control or interest in the black Sea area 3. Gaining new powerful allies, including the Parthian empire and Parthian- dominated Armenia Issues pertaining to the points 1 and 2 have been investigated by the his- torians for a long time Eupator attached utmost importance to the erection of fortifications and strongholds during the internal consolidation of the kingdom, the fortified centres made the basis for the dynasty at the same time becom- ing the elements of defence system against the aggression of the neighbouring

Hingegen dürfen Stadt- gründer auf gar keinen Fall selbst Mythen dichten.»1 Platon Regula Kunkel gewidmet 1. Einführung Platon hat in seinem ‹Staat› von den Stadt- bzw. Staatsgründern gefordert, einen klaren Blick dafür zu haben, dass griechische Dichter genremäßig einer mythischen Weltsicht verpflichtet seien. Von den Gründern eines idealen Staates aber verlangt er, es ihnen nicht nachzutun und sich auf keinen Fall auf den Mythos einzulassen (sondern sich an den Realitäten zu orientieren). Tatsächlich haben die hellenischen Stadtgründer von der archaischen Zeit bis in den Hellenismus, soweit wir das be- urteilen können, sich meist mit wohlüberlegten und klaren Zielsetzungen zu einer Stadt- bzw. ‹Ko- lonie›gründung entschlossen, dann nach rationalen Gesichtspunkten geeignete Plätze für ihre Gründungen ausgewählt und schließlich die Städte gut geplant und klar durchdacht angelegt2 – * Prof. Dr. Johannes Nollé, Kommission für Alte Geschichte und Epigraphik des DAI, Amalienstr. 73b, D- 80799 München ([email protected]).

  • Map 44 Latium-Campania Compiled by N
    Map 44 Latium-Campania Compiled by N. Purcell, 1997 Introduction The landscape of central Italy has not been intrinsically stable. The steep slopes of the mountains have been deforested–several times in many cases–with consequent erosion; frane or avalanches remove large tracts of regolith, and doubly obliterate the archaeological record. In the valley-bottoms active streams have deposited and eroded successive layers of fill, sealing and destroying the evidence of settlement in many relatively favored niches. The more extensive lowlands have also seen substantial depositions of alluvial and colluvial material; the coasts have been exposed to erosion, aggradation and occasional tectonic deformation, or–spectacularly in the Bay of Naples– alternating collapse and re-elevation (“bradyseism”) at a staggeringly rapid pace. Earthquakes everywhere have accelerated the rate of change; vulcanicity in Campania has several times transformed substantial tracts of landscape beyond recognition–and reconstruction (thus no attempt is made here to re-create the contours of any of the sometimes very different forerunners of today’s Mt. Vesuvius). To this instability must be added the effect of intensive and continuous intervention by humanity. Episodes of depopulation in the Italian peninsula have arguably been neither prolonged nor pronounced within the timespan of the map and beyond. Even so, over the centuries the settlement pattern has been more than usually mutable, which has tended to obscure or damage the archaeological record. More archaeological evidence has emerged as modern urbanization spreads; but even more has been destroyed. What is available to the historical cartographer varies in quality from area to area in surprising ways.

  • 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.

  • Backgrounds and Beginnings Early Republic: from Rome to Roman Italy
    HIS 354 Ruzicka The Roman Republic MHRA 2123 10-11 MWF 334-5488 [email protected] For many people “Rome” conjures up images of a vast empire and a series of autocratic and often deranged emperors. That is only part of the story of Roman history. An equally long and equally fascinating phase—that of the Roman Republic—preceded the age of emperors. It was in fact during this phase of Roman history that Rome became a big city, that the Romans took control of the Mediterranean world, and that Julius Caesar (not an emperor) lived. This course surveys this “republican” period of Roman history from the origins of Rome to the assassination of Julius Caesar--a period of more than seven centuries. The three major themes of the course are: 1) the development of Rome’s distinctive political institutions and practices, 2) the rise of Rome to rule over the entire Mediterranean world and 3) the changes wrought upon Roman society by Roman success. We will first examine the origins of Rome, the evolution of the Roman constitution, and the acquisition of Roman dominion over Italy (the Early Republic). Then, we will follow the story of Rome's rise to world power (the Middle Republic). Finally, we will trace the crises of Republican institutions as a result of the internal pressures generated by Roman responsibility for the Mediterranean world (the Late Republic). In a nutshell, we will be examining the rise and fall of the Roman Republic—a 500-year long story. There will be three examinations, each counting 25% of the final grade, and 3 papers (topics at end of syllabus), counting altogether 25% of the final grade.

In each list there is an account of each attested centurion which concentrates on the date and the context of the inscription. Multiple centurionate careers are cross-referenced into the relevant chapters of Volume one. At the end of each chronological list there is a chronologically ordered spread-sheet giving name, reference, date, origin, findspot and any further noteworthy information. At the end of the chronologically ordered spread-sheet there is an alphabetically ordered spread-sheet giving the same information. Centurions named on lead seals and graffiti- are only mentioned if the name is confirmed on a stone inscription from another place. I hope in the future to produce a complete list of centurions from sources other than stone. The legions omitted from the lists are those from the Greek speaking area of the Empire, plus III Augusta and VII Gemina which have both had lists of their centurions published in recent years. Again, I hope to produce a complete list of legionary centurions in the future.

  • THE REACH of the ROMAN EMPIRE in ROUGH CILICIA by HUGHW.ELTON
    THE ECONOMIC FRINGE: THE REACH OF THE ROMAN EMPIRE IN ROUGH CILICIA By HUGHW.ELTON Many discussions of the Roman economy are rather vague about what they mean by 'Roman'. Phrases such as 'Roman Europe' or 'the Roman Empire' often blur two different concepts, that of the cultures of Iron Age Europe and the political institution of the Roman Empire. Cultures in Iron Age Europe varied widely. The Welsh uplands or the Atlas mountains, for example, had an aceramic culture with few public buildings, though were mIed directly by Rome for several centuries. Other regions, not under Roman control, like the regions across the middle Danube, showed higher concentrations of Mediterranean consumer goods and coins than some of these aceramic areas. 1 In Mesopotamia, many societies were urban and literate, not differing in this respect from those in Italy or Greece. Thus, determining what was imperial Roman territory by archaeological criteria alone is very difficult? But these archaeological criteria are important for two reasons. First, they allow us to analyse the cultural and economic changes that occurred in Iron Age Europe between 100 B.C. and A.D. 250. Second, they allow for the possibility of change within Europe that was not caused by the Roman state? Unlike cultures within Iron Age Europe, the Roman Empire was a political structure, imposed by force and dedicated to extracting benefits for the mling elite of the city of Rome.4 As the empire developed and matured, its form changed, but it was never about the mIed, only the rulers. If we accept that the Empire was a political, not an archaeological, structure, it follows that an examination of 'Impact of Empire: Transformation of Economic Life', has to mean an examination of the impact of the Roman imperial state.
