Antiochia am Orontes gehörte neben Rom, Konstantinopel und Alexandria zu den größten Metropolen der hellenistisch-römischen Welt. Unser Bild dieser Stadt wird im wesentlichen von den Berichten antiker Autoren geprägt. Gemessen an der überaus reichen schriftlichen Überlieferung ist die spätantike Stadt archäologisch dagegen weitgehend gestaltlos geblieben. Dennoch beginnt sich abzuzeichnen, dass das spätantike Antiochia nicht die heile Mustersiedlung gewesen ist, als die sie viele Schriftsteller zeichnen, sondern eine Metropole, die im Gefolge von militärischen Zerstörungen und Erdbeben, aber auch von demographischem und wirtschaftlichem Wandel seit dem 4. Jh. n.Chr. einschneidende Stadtumbauten erlebte. Nach einer Katastrophenserie in justinianischer Zeit, die das alte Antiochia weitgehend auslöschte, hatte sich die Stadt letztmalig den Problemen eines vollständigen Wiederaufbaus zu stellen. Our image of Antioch on the Orontes, a metropolis of the Roman world, is largely shaped by the reports of ancient authors. By comparison, the archeological image of the city of late antiquity has remained essentially invisible. It has become apparent over time that the city underwent radical reconstruction beginning from the 4th century as the result of pillage and natural disasters as well as demographic and economic change.
