La segunda se hizo principalmente por Oriente y afectó fundamentalmente a algunas de las principales ciudades de Asia Menor, Capa­docia, Siria, Judea y Egipto. En medio de su primera gran gira, Adriano, en el año 124, se inició en Eleusis, en las cercanías de Atenas, y en asociación con Hércules.

Abstract:
Abstract Although ancient Olympia is usually viewed as a Classical Greek site, most buildings that are visible nowadays were not there yet when Pindar celebrated famous victors or Peisistratos and Alcibiades won their races. More generally, even though new research has substantially improved our knowledge, the early history of the site is often still neglected in introductory presentations of the site. In this article some important main issues are discussed. First, new excavations have revealed that Bronze Age occupation of the area cannot be connected to the later cult, as some scholars have

Abstract:
The main focus of this paper is to examine the analysis offered of the Temple of Zeus at Olympia by Max Raphael in his study dedicated to the remains of the temple. The temple of Zeus at Olympia is often cited as the canonical example of Doric temple architecture and Raphael examines how a particular design can have such far ranging influence, to which end he elucidates the relationship of design to the activity of a participatory and democratic process specific to the Greek polis. By bringing to bear a highly dialectical analysis of the various forces at play in both construction and the elab

This article considers the contents of the temple of Hera at Olympia in the light of Pausanias' account and of excavation reports. Of all the temples Pausanias describes, the Heraion is the most crowded, and it is argued that by his day it was acting as a storeroom, primarily for objects from nearby buildings. The implications are assessed for the history of the attribution of the Heraion, and for the use of temples in Pausanias' day.

Thêêsauroi, or treasure-houses, are small, temple-like structures, found typically in the sanctuaries of Delphi and Olympia. They were built by Greek city-states to house the dedications of their citizens. But a thêêsauros is not just a storeroom: it is also a frame for costly votives, a way of diverting elite display in the interest of the city. When placed on view in a treasure-house, the individual dedication is re-contextualized: although it still reflects well on its dedicant, it also glorifies the polis.

Abstract:
About 30 kilometres north of Byblos, the two Roman temples of Qsar Naous (Ain Akrine, Lebanon) are situated on a hilltop 700 meters above the sea level along the ridge of Mount Lebanon, overlooking the Al-Koura Valley to the east and the sea to the west. Probably developed over a previous cultic site, the temples of Qsar Naous share architectonical features with several sanctuaries from the same period in modern Lebanon. Furthermore, astral symbology is present in the lintels of the propylaea (entrance gate) of both temples of Qsar Naous, decorated with reliefs of sun disks, are present in fur

Объектом изучения стал травертиновый блок с билингвой на латинском и греческом языках, высеченной от имени понтийского царя Митридата IV Филопатора Филадельфа. Артефакт мог быть фрагментом монумента II—I вв. до н. э., располагавшегося близ храма Юпитера Капитолийского в Риме. Примечательно то, что в надписи упомянуты царские послы: Найман, сын Наймана и Махес, сын Махеса. На основании изучения священных текстов и мифологии, можно полагать, что первый происходил из Иудеи, а второй был выходцем из Египта. Понтийский царь отправил их в посольство для информирования о своих контактах с Хасмонеями

Abstract:
This paper aims to reexamine how traditions about the spolia opima developed with special emphasis on two crucial phases of their evolution, the time of Marcus Claudius Marcellus' dedication in 222 BC and the early years of Augustus' principate, following the restoration of the temple of Jupiter Feretrius on the Capitol. In particular, I will argue that Marcellus invented the spolia opima, that his feat shaped the entire tradition about such dedications, and that this tradition was later enhanced and "reinvented" by Augustus, probably following upon renewed interest under Julius Caesar.

Abstract:
This article engages three deities, one Greek and two Oriental, that their cults were worshipped in caves during the Hellenistic and Roman periods. The first deity is a Hellenistic terracotta figurine of Aphrodite, recovered from the prehistoric cave Me‘arat ha-Nahal (Wadi el-Maghara) at the foot of Mount Carmel. It probably represents Aphrodite Pandemos (Ἀϕροδίτη Πάνδημος) or Aphrodite en Kepois (Ἀϕροδίτη ἐν Κήποις). It may be assumed that the cave, and its proximity to the city of Dor, was modified to serve as a cultic site or shrine. The second deity is represented by a sunken relief engrav

But his servulus feels outraged at the sacrilegious act. Jumping to his feet in a temper and acting as a faithful defender of the sacred place, he addresses his former human owner as a new ‘Catiline’ (Apul.

Traveling for trade
 The territory of the inland of the Roman province of Dalmatia or the territory of present-day Bosnia and Herzegovina holds clear evidence that people had travelled for the purpose of healthcare, religion, trade, and relaxation. We can assume that the majority of the travels was for the purpose of business, but such type of travellingis more difficult to corroborate with material evidence. Exception is trade activities that have been unquestionably proven on the basis of discovered objects such as amphoras, jewellery, terra sigillata, lamps, and other objects. We can t

Abstract:
The project presented here started approximately four years ago and concerns the main temple of Olympia, a UNESCO world heritage site, which is visited by thousands of tourists nearly every day. Although Olympia is familiar to everybody and its monuments have been well-researched for more than a century, there are still many puzzles related to its history and remains. A new interpretation of the east pediment of the temple and the ensuing debate caused the reopening of the issue of the reconstruction. The historical setting of the temple-building was also reconsidered and led to a detailed stu

Abstract:
This article examines the origins of the idea of Roman world rule and the foundation myths of the Capitoline temple of Jupiter Optimus Maximus. The temple is associated with world rule by the mid-1st century BC. By the Augustan period its foundation myths are linked with the idea that Rome had been destined, from the time of the Tarquins, to exercise dominion over Italy and the world. The most important of the Capitoline foundation myths describes the prodigy of a human head which was discovered in the ground during the construction of the temple and interpreted as an omen of empire.
