| Content | Starting from the conquest of Alexander the Great and ending in the reign of Nero, this course will explore the history and political developments of Asia Minor during the Hellenistic and Early Roman periods. We will look at historical, epigraphic, numismatic, and documentary sources in order to explore the changes and continuities that occurred during the first century BCE in this region, with a particular focus on the cities on the Attalid and Seleukid kingdoms. |
