Abstract:
The article examines the collaborations between the pensionnaires of the Villa Medici in Rome and the members of the French School of Athens, shedding light on the complex relationships between architecture, art, and archeology. The second half of the 19th century was a period during which the exchanges and collaborations between archaeologists, artists, and architects acquired a reinvented role and a dominant place. Within such a context, Athens was the place par excellence, where the encounter between these three disciplines took place. The main objective of the article is to render explicit

Abstract:
Practitioners of traditional, indigenous, and non-Abrahamic religions and mystery cults under the Roman Empire, even during the brief reign of Julian (r. 361-363), were hardly a unified group, except in the mind of the emperor himself and his circle of intellectual elites. Although the term "pagan" originated as a Christian pejorative for non-Christian gentiles, it is more adequate than either "polytheist," which excludes non-Abrahamic monotheists, or "traditionalist," which erases groups that are relatively more recent than the familial and state cults of, for instance, Athens or Rome, i.e. M

Abstract:
The final chapter completes the narrative with an examination of Hadrian’s dealings with Athens, thanks to whom the city was again made prominent in the Greek world. After discussing Hadrian’s economic and constitutional arrangements for Athens, the chapter turns to the religious and intellectual life in the city and how these appealed to a polymath like Hadrian. Most importantly there is a focus on Hadrian’s Panhellenion, a league of cities of the East created by the emperor that made Athens its center. As a result, Athens’ reputation and prestige skyrocketed once again, and it became in effe

Abstract:
Chapter 14 takes another break from the historical narrative to discuss the major Roman building projects in Athens, which some scholars argue brought about a Romanization of the city and led to its becoming a provincial one. The argument is made that despite Roman buildings, Athens remained a Greek city. The chapter discusses the Roman Agora; the Temple of Roma and Augustus in front of the Parthenon; Agrippa’s Odeum; the lesser public works under the post Julio-Claudian emperors; and Hadrian’s great building program (including the completion of the monumental Temple to Olympian Zeus (Olympiei

Abstract:
From Augustus’ death to Hadrian a succession of emperors in three dynasties came to rule Rome. Chapter 13 begins by thematically covering the relations of the dynasties toward Greece. Then it considers the relations of the emperors toward Athens, and the state of the city (economically, politically) during this period. The chapter also discusses St Paul’s visit to Athens and his sermon to the Areopagus, recounted in Acts. Finally, there is an examination of what is known about individual emperors’ relations with the city, and what they did to it, including cultural life, up to Trajan, and intr

Abstract:
Greek and Roman societies were strongly rooted in and intentionally based on their authoritative pasts, made visible in monuments and “lieux de mémoire.” For a precise understanding of these phenomena, a theoretical distinction is introduced between the knowledge of tradition and the memory of a paradigmatic past, exemplifying both categories by testimonies of the age of Augustus. Specific commemorative capacities are explored, on the one hand, in places of mythical and historical memory in Athens and Rome and, on the other hand, in political monuments from classical and Hellenistic Greece to

Abstract:
Abstract The Hellenistic period, the 300 years between the reigns of Alexander the Great of Macedon (336-323 BC) and Augustus, the first Roman Emperor (31 BC-AD 14), is often seen as an uninteresting and incoherent part of Greek history. Falling be¬ tween the two ‘central’ periods of classical Athens and Ciceronian or Augustan Rome, the period seems to be merely the melancholy story of the decline of the Greek city, subjected first to Alexander and his successors and then to the Romans.

Abstract:
The grand tour took the young and wealthy to Rome and Naples, but not as far as Greece, which had sunk into oblivion under its Byzantine emperors, who began to rule in A.D. 527. For seven hundred years Greece remained masked in obscurity as Crusaders, Venetians, and then Turks established princedoms and trading posts there. The Turks entered Athens in 1455 and turned the Parthenon and Acropolis into a fortress, transforming Greece into a rundown province of the Ottoman Empire. Worse yet, the ravages of wind, rain, and earthquake, of villagers seeking building stone and mortar, buried and erode

Abstract Societies in the Ancient world developed methods and instruments for finding and measuring time by the sun and by water. This chapter establishes the difference between clepsydras and water clocks so as to elucidate the description of these as used in the Ancient world, including in Assyria, Greece, Babylon, Egypt, and Rome. It also describes the several different kinds of sundials and explains the fifteen individual types established by archaeological evidence. Furthermore, it covers how sundials were used in Antiquity, and goes on to describe some major monuments, such as the Meridi

The ancient city of Philadelphia is primarily remembered as one of the seven cities mentioned in the book of Revelation. Because the city was in an earthquake-prone area, not much remains to be seen of ancient Philadelphia. What might still exist lies buried, for the most part, under the modern city. Situated approximately 30 miles southeast of the site of ancient Sardis on highway 585, Alaşehir is the name of the modern city located on the site of ancient Philadelphia. Philadelphia was on a plateau in the Cogamus River valley (today the Alaşehir Çayï), a tributary of the Hermus River. In anti
