Description
Summary:Since the beginning of Roman rule over Asia Minor, Greek cities have either resisted the new power or paid allegiance to it. After the defeat of Mithridates, resistance could no longer be achieved through direct revolt, but rather through judicial action. Allegiance took the form of civic honours inherited from the Hellenistic tradition. This article examines briefly the changes in those two attitudes towards Rome between the Republic and the Empire. It then offers a study of a very particular type of honours conferred to Augustus in 9 B.C.: the new calendar of the province of Asia, a measure initiated by the governor and approved by the koinon of Asia.
