War, peace and Rome’s empire-building ideology in the making
Predating the consolidation of the Pax Augusta as a linchpin of the Principate’s new imperial ideology, the benefits of progressively longer interludes of peace— both for Rome and its provincial subjects in varying degrees— ultimately legitimised its territorial expansion. This paper places the accent on the initial stages of that process. With the overseas expansion of mid-Republican Rome, peace, along with war, gradually became a central aspect…
War, Warlords, and Interstate Relations in the Ancient Mediterranean
During the final four centuries BC, many political and stateless entities of the Mediterranean headed towards anarchy and militarism, while stronger powers -Carthage, the Hellenistic kingdoms and Republican Rome- expanded towards State formation, forceful military structures and empire building. Edited by T. Ñaco del Hoyo and F. López Sánchez, this volume presents the proceedings from an ICREA Conference held in Barcelona (2013), addressing the c…
Roman and Pontic Intelligence Strategies
This paper deals with the political and military use of confidential information gathered on behalf of the Roman Republic and the kingdom of Pontus during the reign of King Mithradates VI ( c.120–63 bc). Unlike the Roman Empire, when spies worked for well-organized intelligence agencies, in this period the available sources mention several other methods of gathering sensitive information which served such secretive purposes as well. This paper ex…
When the waters recede
This article investigates the impact of ancient tsunamis on the ancient World. Nowadays, the effects of such events on contemporary economic is easy to assess and investigate, thanks to the amount of information available. More complicated is the picture for pre-modern societies. The aim of this paper is precisely to focus on the economic consequences, if any, of tidal waves on certain regions and periods of the classical world. As a matter of fa…
The ‘Ultimate Frontier’
On the one hand, we have to see the world in terms of the choices made by these local communities; on the other, we have to remember that Rome was not the only imperialist power [in the East], and that Roman control was fluctuating and incomplete throughout most of the century". 2 In Mithridates VI Eupator instigated a great number of Greek poleis. With Ephesus at its head, they systematically murdered, on the same day, all the romaioi who for de…
Gadès et les précédents des attributions politiques des praefecti praesidii républicains
Toni Ñaco del Hoyo, Gades and the precedents of the political functions of Republican praefecti praesidii, DHA 35/1, 2009, 95-113. Abstract : Roman Republican military culture implies the establishment of military garrisons in the cities, In 1953 G.Tibiletti compared the most likely political functions of the 'eparchos' sent to Messambria in 73-72BC with those the Roman prefect in charge of the Hispanic town of Gades (206-199 BC), whose abuses ar…
Gadès et les précédents des attributions politiques des praefecti praesidii républicains
La ‘culture militaire romaine’ de l’époque républicaine comporte l’établissement de garnisons militaires dans les cités. En 1953, G. Tibiletti a comparé les compétences très probablement politiques de l’‘ eparchos ’ qui avait été envoyé à Messambria en 73-72 av. J.-C. avec celles du préfet romain chargé du contrôle de la ville hispanique de Gades (206-199 av. J.-C.), dont les abus suscitèrent des plaintes. La Deuxième Guerre Punique nous apporte …
Vectigal incertum
Milites in oppidis hibernabant. El hospitium militare invernal en ciudades peregrinas y los abusos de la hospitalidad sub tectis durante la República
Obligar a ciudades peregrinas a albergar y alimentar a soldados desmovilizados durante el invierno - hospitium militare - résulta algo habituai en la Roma republicana, aunque no exclusi- vamente. En ocasiones la exigencia hospitalaria también suponia que los legionarios eran distribui- dos en casas particulares, lo que no sólo erosionaba la independencia de sus ciudades, sino que sus ciudadanos sufrían diariamente los abusos del regimen sub tecti…
