This essay takes the reader on a virtual walk through Rome to illustrate the city’s deep immersion in Greek culture between Augustus and Hadrian. The five sections discuss the Palatine Apollo library as presented in Galen’s Peri alypias, the Pinax ton didaskalon inscription viewed in its Roman context, the Tabulae Iliacae and their ties with Lycophron’s Alexandra, the Hypogaeum of the Porta Maggiore, and the testimo- nies on the career and literary output of Lucius Iulius Vestinus.
这篇文章将带领读者在罗马进行一次虚拟漫步，以说明这座城市在奥古斯都和哈德良之间深深沉浸在希腊文化中。这五个部分讨论了Galen的Peri alypias中展示的Palatine Apollo图书馆，Pinax ton didaskalon在罗马背景下的铭文，Tabulae Iliacae及其与lycopphron的Alexandra的关系，Porta Maggiore的Hypogaeum，以及关于Lucius Iulius Vestinus的职业和文学作品的证词。

The aim of my article is to present validity of psychological approaches for studies on Roman Republican military. Application of military psychology to ancient warfare seems simply impossible without embedding psychological data in cultural context, that emphasize soldiers’ needs and motivations. The Roman collectivist way of perceiving social relations in addition to methods of gaining political support resulted in the awareness that effective command depends not only on training and proper organization, but also on strengthening soldiers’ morale through emotional interaction. The first Polish historian who drew attention to such a way of building internal unit cohesion in the Roman Republican army was Adam Ziółkowski.

The present article discusses the problem of meeting places of the Roman Senate in late Antiquity. The rich literature on the subject has so far focused on the places of regular sessions of the assembly. Here, efforts were made to collect and evaluate the informations on others, irregular meetings of the Roman Senate.

The paper presents three papyri discovered at the site of Qasr Ibrim in Lower Nubia and connected to a short-lived presence of Roman military post there in the late 20s BC. All three papyri are letters to soldiers of the Qasr Ibrim post sent by their col- leagues who remained in their permanent bases in Egypt. Their common element is that they mention shipment of pigs. The authors discuss the role of pigs in the diet of Roman soldiers as well as patterns of supplying soldiers of the Qasr Ibrim post with pork.

Several critical observations and notes to the four verses, which have been preserved in full on that papyrus, as well as remarks to the Oxford commentary. Lyne’s conjecture to verse 2 is to be accepted. These verses do look ancient, but do not look to be composed by a good poet (let alone Cornelius Gallus).

Domitian’s damnatio has been looked into many times and from many angles; following the path of senatorial historical writings, researchers have often emphasized the totality of the results of the senate decree which ordained it. Based on an analysis of narrative sources, epigraphic evidence, images and statues of Domitian, monuments, and coins, the authors tried to verify that simplistic opinion, pointing out his posthumous popularity in some social circles.

The article presents some archaeological observations informed by recent publica- tions on the ‘House of Aion’ at Nea Paphos. Its archaeological context (coins and pot- tery) dates the construction of this building to the second decade of the 4th century, its partial destruction and final annihilation by a series of earthquakes, to AD 332/342 and 365 respectively. The much-discussed mythological decorative mosaic in the larg- est hall of the House of Aion (triclinium) and the newly analyzed wall paintings in room 7 with figures of Apollo and muses are typical decorative elements of Roman elite houses and residences of Late Antiquity. And yet, the layout of the House and the presence of two rooms with a wooden floor laid over an earlier water cistern to convert it into a cellar, possibly a treasure vault, suggest that the function of the complex was not residential at all. Indeed, the close proximity of the ‘House of Aion’ to the ‘Villa of Theseus’, rebuilt during the same period and converted into the prae- torium of the governor, suggests that the House could have been a seat of a Roman association, perhaps the seat of the synodos of Dionisiac artists of the theatre.

Marek Wȩcowski
This paper focuses on a mysterious reference in the depiction of the provenance of the fateful bow of Odysseus in Od. 21.26, which is usually translated as ‘[the man called] Herakles, guilty of monstruous actions’ or else as ‘... Heracles aware of great deeds’. Instead of traditionally linking this allusion to Heracles’ killing of Iphitos or the story of Heracles’ involvement in the theft of the mares of Iphitos’ father by Autolykos, Odysseus’ grandfather, it is argued that the reference here is to the participation of Heracles in the cosmic battle of the Olympian gods against the Gigantes. Accordingly, the line should be translated as follows: ‘Heracles, witness to great deeds’. As such, Od. 21.26 would provide us with the earliest attested mention of the Gigantomachy in Greek literature. If so, alongside other passages in the Odys- sey such as 12.69–70 (mentioning ‘Argo, who is in all men’s minds’), this reference might have been triggered by the poet’s eagerness to include an allusion to a freshly pre-Homeric poem widely circulating among his envisaged audience.

Alexandre Grandazzi
In book 36 of Pliny the Elder’s Natural History, a book devoted to stone, there’s an extensive description of Curio’s wooden theatre, a surprising fact which warrants an explanation. Equally surprising is the unremarked upon absence in the same book of any mention of the Colosseum amphitheater, a stone monument which was being built when Pliny was writing his encyclopedia, and whose huge construction site in the center of Rome he could hardly have missed. It would seem that Pliny’s disapproval of Curio’s theatre, a device that gave birth to the neologism amphitheatrum, should be read as a veiled criticism aimed at the imperial decision to provide the Urbs with an amphitheatrum novum which was to be the largest structure of this type ever built until this date. The encyclopedist’s feelings towards the Flavian dynasty thus appear to be more ambiguous than is generally thought.
