Excerpt: ...colonists, probably Seleucid, is proved by an inscription to have existed in the valley below on the road to Cibyra, at Eriza (near Dere-Keui) and the neighbouring villages.2 1 Strabo xiii. 830. 'It is probable that the n-fonndalinn of these towns as Antiochs belong to the time of Antlochus HI. Strabo xiv. 868; cr. Ramsay, Historical Geography of A Ha Minor, p. 171. Ktepert, connecting Antioch and Philomelium by a road across the Paroreia, makes them both stations on the main road, bnt there appears to be no possibility of more than a rough bridle-path over the mountain, Ramsay, Church in the Roman Empire, p. 28; Murray, Ana Minor, p. 148. Strabo xii. 677. Going westward still, we find a road connecting TrallesAntioch on the main road with the harbours of Southern Caria, Physcus, and Caunus. It was the further connexion of these harbours with a great commercial state like Rhodes, which indeed came to possess them as dependencies, that the importance of this road across Caria lay. It passed through the old centres of Carian life, through Alabanda and by the temple of Zeus Chrysaoreus, the religious centre of the Carian people, in which the federal parliament assembled, composed of delegates from the various groups of villages.8 In both places the Seleucid government made establishments. Alabanda for a time became Antioch.4 By the temple of Zeus Chrysaoreus arose a new Macedonian city, Stratonicea, founded no doubt by Antiochus I in honour of his wife. The Macedonian settlers took part in the national assemblies and cults at the neighbouring temples.6 To find the other colonies, which are certainly Seleucid, we must go northwards to those roads which bind the capital, Sardis, to the Troad--the highway, that is, between Sardis and...

Download or read book The House of Seleucus Vol 1 Classic Reprint written by Edwyn Robert Bevan and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The House of Seleucus, Vol. 1 There is much to discourage an attempt to write a history of the Seleucid dynasty. It will be only too apparent how often the narrative must halt for deficiency of materials, how the picture must he disfigured by blanks just where they are most vexatious. I hope, however, that if the reading of this book makes these disabilities felt, the question prompted at the conclusion will be, not "Why has such an attempt been made?" but "How comes it that such a subject has been neglected so long?" If the book itself fails to make clear how closely the subject touches us, as students of the world, as Christians and as Englishmen, it would be absurd to think that a preface could do so. It is indeed surprising, defective though the materials are, that the Seleucid dynasty has not been made as a whole the subject of a special study since the Jesuit Frolich wrote his Annales compendiarii regum et rerum Syriae in the middle of the eighteenth century (1744). In recent times it has only been treated in works dealing with the "Hellenistic" epoch generally, or in catalogues of the Seleucid coinage, such as Mr. Percy Gardner's Coins of the Seleucid Kings of Syria in the British Museum (1878) and M. Ernest Babelon's Rois de Syrie, d'Armenie et de Commagene (Catalogue des monnaies grecques de la Bibliotheque National), Paris, 1890.

Download or read book The Persian Empire 2 volumes written by Mehrdad Kia and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2016-06-27 with total page 784 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This well-balanced reference on ancient Persia demonstrates the region's contributions to the growth and development of human civilization from the 7th century BCE through the fall of the Persian Sasanian Empire in 651CE. Knowledge of ancient Persia is often gleaned from the writings of the ancient Greeks and Romans—two civilizations that viewed the Persians as enemies. This one-of-a-kind reference provides unbiased coverage of the cultural history of the Persian Empire, examining the Median, Achaemenid, Parthian, Kushan, and Sasanian dynasties and tracing the development and maturation of Iranian societies during a period of nearly 1,500 years. As one of the most comprehensive studies on the topic, this historical overview explores the region's rich past while providing insight into the cultures and civilizations the Persians came to rule and influence. Using primary sources written and inscribed by the ancient Persians themselves, the encyclopedia studies the pre-Islamic civilizations of Iran in the Middle East, the Caucasus, Central Asia, and the Indian subcontinent. Incorporating contributions from scholars who discuss the rise and fall of various Persian dynasties, the work offers some 180 entries that cover such topics as religion, royal nobility, the caste system, and political assassinations. The content offers perspectives from a variety of disciplines—from anthropology to archaeology, geography, and art history, among other areas.

Download or read book The Foreign Policy of Mithridates VI Eupator King of Pontus written by B.C. McGing and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-07-17 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the clash of the Hellenistic world with the Romans, about a late Hellenistic king, a dominant figure of the first century B.C., who refused to accept his inclusion in the Roman sphere of control, and attempted to assert his political independence. A subsidiary theme is the espousal of hellenism by a non-Greek dynasty. The work examines first the early history of Pontus, and then analyses carefully the events of Mithridates Eupator's reign for what they reveal of his foreign policy. Attention is focused on diplomacy, strategy, propaganda, support, rather than on military details. There is no substantial study of Mithridates in English, and really only one in any language - Reinach's famous work of 1890. Since then, new inscriptions and coins have come to light, new methods and approaches devised. This book is intended as a contribution to the filling of a large scholarly gap.
