"À partir d'une analyse systématique des textes gréco-latins, Luc Baray explore les principales facettes du mode de fonctionnement du mercenariat celtique : origines ethniques et géographiques, modalités de recrutement ou de rémunération, effectifs des contingents mobilisés, commandement, discipline, armement. II s'intéresse aux procédures et techniques mises en place pour recruter, encadrer et gérer ces troupes. Les mercenaires celtes étaient-ils moins bien payés que leurs homologues étrangers ? Etaient-ils placés sous le commandement d'officiers grecs ou puniques ou avaient-ils leurs propres officiers ? Devaient-ils se présenter armés au moment du recrutement ? Qui les équipait ? Il étudie aussi les rapports qui ont pu exister entre les employés et leurs employeurs. Quelle part ont-ils pris dans le déclenchement de la 'guerre des Mercenaires' ? Ont-ils été particulièrement déloyaux envers leurs employeurs, comme le laisse entendre une tendance lourde de l'historiographie ancienne et moderne ? Une attention particulière est portée à l'image du guerrier celte et plus spécialement à celle du mercenaire comme menace pour la citoyenneté. Démontrant l'inanité des stéréotypes véhiculés par les auteurs antiques et repris par les modernes, l'auteur propose une mise en perspective renouvelée d'un phénomène militaire de grande ampleur qui marqua de son empreinte l'ensemble des civilisations du pourtour méditerranéen des cinq derniers siècles avant J.-C. II établit pour la première fois une synthèse précise et complète de nos connaissances sur un sujet jusqu'alors pas ou peu abordé."--Page 4 of cover.

Stephen Mitchell's Anatolia (1993) and Karl Strobel's Die Galater (1996) were by no means end points for the study of Hellenistic and Roman Galatia. Rather, they stimulated several new research initiatives. The introduction to this volume synthesises the results of some 700 mostly very recent scholarly publications, before ten case studies explore new trends in military, political, cultural and religious history. Methodologically refined approaches to the fragmentary literary sources have nuanced our understanding of the Galatians' migration, settlement, state formation, warfare and diplomacy. Investigations into the Galatians as the object of Attalid and Seleukid propaganda are complemented by studies into their political agency as independent tribes with varying objectives. For the Roman period, Greek inscriptions available in constantly growing numbers, besides coinage and other archaeological data, allow for a nuanced understanding of what provincialisation meant in practice: the loss of political autonomy was immediate (25 BC), as was the foundation of colonies in Pisidia; a landscape of monumentalised cities in the heartland of Galatia followed only slowly in the course of the next century. Cultic innovation was also diverse: the temple for the goddess Roma and the god Augustus was constructed in Ankyra from 5 BC to AD 14, whereas traditional Hellenistic-Phrygian cults densely resurface in the epigraphic evidence of the 2nd and 3rd centuries AD. Interest in Paul's evangelisation of Asia Minor has been the catalyst of scholarly interest in the Galatians since the 4th century. Two studies devoted to the historical context of Paul's Letter to the Galatians try to connect the bulk of Pauline scholarship with latest research on urbanisation, ethnic constructs and spatial conceptions in the Graeco-Roman world, to lift discussions to a new level.
