Abstract

The Seleukid empire, the principal successor-state of the empire of Alexander the Great, endured for over 200 years and stretched, at its peak, from the Mediterranean to the borders of India. This book provides a wide-ranging study of the empire's economy and the methods used by the Seleukid kings to monetise and manage it so as to extract tribute, rent and taxes as efficiently as possible. It uses a variety of Greek literary sources and inscriptions, cuneiform texts, archaeological, numismatic and comparative evidence to explore in detail the manner of exploitation of their lands and subjects by the Seleukid kings, their city-building activity, the financing of their armies and administration, the use they made of coinage and their methods of financial management. The book adopts a highly original, numerical approach throughout, which leads to a quantified model of the economy of an ancient state.

Abstract

This is the third volume of Getzel Cohen's important work on the Hellenistic settlements in the ancient world. Through the conquests of Alexander the Great, his successors and others, Greek and Macedonian culture spread deep into Asia, with colonists settling as far away as Bactria and India. In this book, Cohen provides historical narratives, detailed references, citations, and commentaries on all the Graeco-Macedonian settlements founded (or refounded) in the East. Organized geographically, Cohen pulls together discoveries and debates from dozens of widely scattered archaeological and epigraphic projects, making a distinct contribution to ongoing questions and opening new avenues of inquiry.

Abstract

"In dieser religionsgeographisch angelegten Studie werden die Spuren des frühen Christentums im kilikisch-isaurischen Bergland untersucht. Dabei wird eine bislang wenig beachtete Region ins Zentrum gerückt und auf Basis der kaiserzeitlichen und spätantiken epigraphischen, literarischen und archäologischen Zeugnisse erforscht. Ausgehend von den zahlreichen jüdischen Gemeinden entwickelten sich schon zur Zeit des Paulus die ersten christlichen Gemeinden. In späterer Zeit waren die vielen verschiedenen Märtyrerkulte in den einzelnen Städten von überragender Bedeutung für die Christianisierung der Landschaft. Neben vielen stark lokal verankerten Kulten erfuhren die Heilige Thekla und der Heilige Konon Verehrung in der ganzen Region und waren somit regionale Heilige. Ein dichtes Netz frühbyzantinischer Kirchenbauten, die zum Teil noch heute gut erhalten sind, belegt die umfassende Christianisierung des Gebietes. Unter dem aus Isaurien stammenden Kaiser Zenon wurden die regionalen Kulte in der östlichen Reichshälfte verbreitet."--
