description This paper intends to present a typology of Romans citizens living in Egypt from the reign of Ptolemy XII (80-51 B.C.) to the reign of the emperor Vespasian (69-79 A.D.). Romans had specific interests in the Ptolemaic kingdom: cultural leisure and travels, military operations, diplomacy, economic matters. Their presence in Egypt, which took many different forms, prepared in its way the conquest of the kingdom, and its reduction into a province of the Roman Empire. From then on, Romans of Egypt belonged to two main categories: administration and army. As for Alexandrian citizenship, it became a first step before obtaining Roman citizenship.
