Abstract:
Publius Cornelius Dolabella, the most famous governor of the Province of Upper Illyricum / Dalmatia, is a descendant of an eminent and ancient Roman family that has originated and belonged to the patrician gens Cornelia. Gens Cornelia had a large number of branches, including Dolabellae. Representatives of this branch of Cornelia are recorded in sources as prominent officials during the Middle Republic. Publius Cornelius Dolabella Maximus was a consul in 283 BC, followed by two more members of branch Cornelius Dolabella, but with praenomen Gnaeus, the consuls of the Republic in 159 and 81 BC.

Abstract:
The change of rule in Constantinople in 1118 and the ascension to the throne of Emperor John II Komnenos did not lead to any changes in the primary goals of Byzantine foreign policy towards the East. The new basileus started immediately with great energy to realise the so called “Roman reconquest“ in Anatolia. It was no coincidence that the first march he organized in the spring of 1119 was against the war-torn Rum Seljuk Sultanate. The constant pillaging raids of the nomad Turkic hordes gave him a reason to do this, and he ended up not only countering the nomad hordes but also conquering the

The complex triumphal inscription of King Ptolemy III of Egypt (246-222/221 BC) ‘Great King descended from Heracles and Dionysus’ stands out among the great epigraphic documents of the Ptolemaic dynasty. It includes the official genealogy of the sovereign, a panorama of the territories inherited from Ptolemy II and, above all, the list of the conquests of the first phase of the Laodicean war (246-245 BC), which culminated in an anabasis up to Central Asia. We know this historical and meta-historical document only through the autopsy of the Alexandrian merchant Cosmas Indicopleustes, who saw it

Ancient Laodicea, once a thriving city, now lies in ruins, awaiting a more thorough excavation than it has so far received. Overshadowed by the more spectacular nearby site of Hierapolis (Pamukkale), Laodicea receives the occasional busload of tourists who stop to view the remains of this city that the book of Revelation imagined as having boasted, “I am rich, I have prospered, and I need nothing” (3:17). Laodicea is south of the modern village of Goncalï and north of the village of Eskihisar. The site is located on a plateau between two small rivers that are tributaries of the Lycus River. Th

This two-part chapter, underpinned by nineteenth-century theories of light and vision and the empirical researches of Hermann von Helmholtz, is primarily concerned with light and its disclosures, first as it operates in the physics of two major novels, Far From the Madding Crowd and Lord Jim, and then its place in the act of seeing as explored in two less widely read works, A Laodicean and ‘The End of the Tether’. The discussion of Far From the Madding Crowd shows that the medium of light is an agent in extending perception in a scene beyond the ‘comings in’ of a particular eye. Light in Lord

Abstract:
Hierapolis is a popular tourist site, featured frequently on travel posters and tourist advertisements because of the adjacent spectacular calcified cliffs. Equally as impressive as the white cliffs, however, are the remains of the ancient city and the excellent museum at the site. Along with Colossae and Laodicea, Hierapolis was one of the major cities of the Lycus River valley. While Colossae and Laodicea are on the southern side of the Lycus River, Hierapolis (today known as Pamukkale) is north (or northeast) of the river. The site of the ancient city is approximately 12 miles north of the

Abstract The word “Tetrapolis” designates four cities in the northwestern part of ancient Syria: Antioch, Seleucia, Laodicea, and Apamea. This chapter looks at the interconnected history of these four cities from the fourth century bc to the sixth century ad, under the Seleucids, the Roman Empire, and in late antiquity, paying attention to the relationship between culture, urban space, and history. Seleucus I founded the four cities to connect the Mediterranean region and the Seleucid kingdom. However, when Seleucia was occupied by the Lagides as early as the third century BC, they were more r

Abstract Roman, Byzantine, and early Islamic rule over Syria guaranteed a degree of peace and the economic security that fostered sedentarization and the settlement of marginal zones like the limestone massif in north Syria. A prosperous village society developed here in the early Roman imperial period. Hundreds of villages, hamlets, and convents thrived in the region. A diversified agrosystem secured subsistence, but arboriculture and viniculture created surpluses for sale at nearby markets. A crucial factor for economic success was the location at the heart of a highly urbanized region with

At one time a thriving city in the fertile valley of the Lycus River, the city of Colossae is almost forgotten today. If not for its significance to the Bible, the site of ancient Colossae, now only an unexcavated mound, would be visited very seldom. Colossae was situated near the Lycus River (today the Aksu Çay), the chief tributary of the Meander River. Located in the Phrygian region of Asia Minor, the city was approximately 120 miles east of Ephesus. During the 5th and 4th centuries B.C.E. Colossae was a large and prosperous city.

The focus here win be on the organization of cities and the economic and political connections between the cities in Asia and the larger empire.

There is sound reason to believe that this type was a local issue struck in Cyprus for use in the province and not for distribution outside it.

Catenae appeared in Judaea/Palestine at the beginning of the sixth century. They consist of commentaries, homilies, scholia of the past centuries, and any other literary form in which Scripture verses are explained. Ecclesiastical writings are quoted in the form of extracts, sometimes literal, sometimes rewritten, according to the order of the verses of each Biblical book. Each extract is normally preceded by the name of its author in the genitive case. With time, the catenae were formed not only from commentaries, homilies, scholia, and other patristic writings, but also from pre-existing cat
