The Areopagos Council was one of Athens' most archaic and respected institutions. Despite the efforts of historians in antiquity and today its origin, importance, and functions remain ambiguous. Most scholarship on the Areopagos focuses on isolated events in the council's history or the particularities of its powers. This has produced a series of specific studies, which in isolation do not help historians understand the Areopagos' greater role in Athens' political culture. This investigation will re-examine ancient literary accounts and epigraphic evidence in order to reassess the early history of the Areopagos from Athens' monarchical period to the reforms of Ephialtes. It will be demonstrated that the Areopagos originated as an informal council of elders during Athens' monarchical period and evolved into a powerful governing body whose importance waned only after Ephialtes' reforms. Assessing the changing role of the Areopagos over time will allow scholars to better understand the development of this institution and the changing nature of Athenian government.

Le conseil de l'Aréopage était une des institutions les plus anciennes et les plus respectées d'Athènes. Son origine, son importance et ses fonctions demeurent ambigües en dépit des efforts des historiens anciens et modernes. La plupart des travaux modernes sur l'Aréopages se concentrent sur des événements isolés dans l'histoire de ce conseil ou sur les particularités de ses pouvoirs. Cela a donné lieu à une série d'études spécifiques qui, lorsqu'on les considère individuellement, ne sont pas d'un grand secours aux historiens pour apprécier le rôle d'ensemble de l'Aréopage dans la culture politique d'Athènes. Cette enquête réexaminera les sources littéraires et épigraphiques pour tenter de réévaluer l'histoire de l'Aréopage de la période monarchique jusqu'aux réformes d'Éphialtès. Il sera démontré que l'Aréopage avait ses origines dans un conseil de vieillards qui existait a l'époque monarchique d'Athènes et qui évolua jusqu'a devenir un puissant organe de gouvernement dont l'importance déclina seulement après les réformes d'Éphialtès. Examiner l'évolution du rôle de l'Aréopage à travers le temps permettra aux historiens de mieux comprendre le développement de cette institution et la nature changeante du gouvernement athénien.

This work deals with the evolution of the magistracies of quaestor and aedile in the Roman Republic (509-49 BC). The treatment of the subject is based primarily upon an analysis of the importance of these magistracies within the political realm and within the context of the political career of the individual aristocrat on the path of the cursus honorum. Firstly, the origins and the development of these magistracies during the first centuries of the Republic are discussed. Secondly, it turns to a discussion of the political role of the magistracies; the office of quaestor allowed its occupants to acquire important administrative experience and establish ties with the most important members of the Roman aristocracy. The post of aedile permitted its occupants to obtain the support of the electorate with the holding of games and spectacles, an advantage that was limited by the Senate with unexpected and perverse effects. Both magistracies contributed significantly to the administrative development of the city of Rome and its Empire, but most of all to the process of aristocratic competition which first defined it as a political community before weakening it critically.

Cet ouvrage traite de l'évolution des magistratures de questeur et d'édile dans la République Romaine (509 à 49 avant J.C.). Le traitement du sujet est axé surtout sur une analyse de l'importance de ces magistratures sur le plan politique et dans le contexte de la carrière politique de l'aristocrate romain individuel sur la piste du cursus honorum. En premier lieu, les origines et le développement de ces magistratures durant les premiers siècles de la République sont discutés. Ensuite, il est question du rôle politique des magistratures; le poste de questeur a permis à ceux qui l'ont occupé d'acquérir une importante expérience administrative et de tisser des liens avec les membres les plus importants de l'aristocratie Romaine. Le poste d'édile a permis à ceux qui l'ont occupé d'obtenir l'appui de l'électorat avec la tenue de jeux et spectacles, un avantage qui fut limité par le Sénat avec des effets inattendus et pervers. Les deux magistratures ont contribué significativement au développent administratif de la ville de Rome et de son Empire, mais surtout à la concurrence aristocratique qui l'a défini comme communauté politique avant de l'affaiblir.

The following thesis is an examination of the underlying reasons for the re-establishment of the cult of the Arval Brothers under Augustus, the first Roman Emperor (31 BC-AD14). It aims to prove that the re-foundation of this archaic Roman cult fits within the parameters of Augustus' religious, as well as political reforms after the victory at Actium in 31 BC. Moreover, it seeks to determine the reasons behind the choice of this particular cult. Although Augustus had significantly reduced the number of men in the Senate, there was still a bottleneck for the few major political offices available. Thus, he decided to give out priesthoods as thanks to his loyal supporters, and to reward those that had crossed over to his side. The members of the brotherhood in 21 BC are highly prominent men both militarily and politically, and this shows that Augustus wanted to solidify his support among the members of the aristocracy.

La présente thèse est une examination des raisons sous-jacentes du rétablissement du culte des Frères Arvales sous Auguste, le premier empereur Romain (31av. J.-C.-14 de notre ère). Elle propose de prouver que le rétablissement de ce culte romain archaïque s'accorde avec les paramètres des réformes politique et religieuse suivant la victoire à Actium en 31 av. J.-C. De plus, elle cherche à déterminer les raisons derrière le choix de ce culte en particulier. Malgré qu'Auguste avait réduit le nombre d'hommes siégeant au Sénat, il y avait toujours une route étroite menant aux offices les plus prestigieuses. Donc, il octroya des prêtrises pour remercier ses supporteurs et pour récompenser ceux qui avaient choisi de changer de camp. Les membres de la fraternité des Frères Arvales en 21 av. J.-C. sont des hommes très proéminent dans les domains de la politique ainsi que dans l'armée, et ceci démontre qu'Auguste voulait solidifier l'appui des membres de l'aristocracie.

Stephen Dyson's The Creation of the Roman Frontier employs various anthropological models to explain the development of Rome's republican frontiers. His treatment of the Ligurian frontier in the second century BC posits a Ligurian policy' crafted largely by the Senate and Roman frontier tacticians' (i.e. consuls). Dyson consciously avoids incorporating the pressures of domestic politics and the dynamics of aristocratic competition. But his insistence that these factors obscure policy continuities is incorrect. Politics determined policy. This thesis deals with the Ligurian frontier from 200 to 172 BC, years in which Roman involvement in the region was most intense. It shows that individual magistrates controlled policy to a much greater extent than Dyson and other scholars have allowed. The interplay between the competing forces of aristocratic competition and Senatorial consensus best explains the continuities and shifts in regional policy.

The Creation of the Roman Frontier, l'uvre de Stephen Dyson, utilise plusieurs modèles anthropologiques pour illuminer le développement de la frontière républicaine. Son traitement de la frontière Ligurienne durant la deuxième siècle avant J.-C. postule une politique' envers les Liguriennes déterminer par le Sénat et les tacticiens de la frontière romain' (les consuls). Dyson fais exprès de ne pas tenir compte des forces de la politique domestique et la compétition aristocratique. Mais son insistance que ces forces cachent les continuités de la politique Ligurienne est incorrecte. Ce thèse évalue les développements dans la Ligurie entre les années 200 et 172 avant J.-C.les trentes ans pendant lesquelles les romains faisaient de la guerre à presque chaque année en Ligurie. La thèse montre que les individus influençaient la politique plus souvent et plus fortement que Dyson et autres historien(ne)s concèdent. Les continuités et changement dans la politique régionale sont mieux expliqués selon un cadre qui prend compte de la tension entre la compétition aristocratique et le consensus Sénatorial.

This paper presents a detailed case study in early Roman imperialism in the Greek East: the First Illyrian War (229/8 B.C.), Rome's first military engagement across the Adriatic. It places Roman decision-making and action within its proper context by emphasizing the role that Greek polities and Illyrian tribes played in both the outbreak and conclusion of the war. It argues that the primary motivation behind the Roman decision to declare war against the Ardiaei in 229 was to secure the very profitable trade routes linking Brundisium to the eastern shore of the Adriatic. It was in fact the failure of the major Greek powers to limit Ardiaean piracy that led directly to Roman intervention. In the earliest phase of trans-Adriatic engagement Rome was essentially uninterested in expansion or establishing a formal hegemony in the Greek East and maintained only very loose ties to the polities of the eastern Adriatic coast. However, Rome did exercise a certain influence in the decision-making processes of these polities in the decades following the war. Nonetheless, the absence of a Roman presence in the region following the war led directly to further intervention in the region a decade later.

Ce mémoire se veut être une étude de cas approfondie de l'impérialisme romain naissant dans l'Orient grec : le cas de la Première Guerre illyrienne (229/8 av. J.C.), la première entreprise militaire romaine de l'autre côté de l'Adriatique. L'approche choisie situe le processus décisionnel et les actions de Rome dans leur contexte propre en insistant sur le rôle que les communautés grecques et illyriennes eurent à jouer à la fois dans le déclenchement et dans la conclusion de la guerre. Cette étude soutient que la déclaration de guerre de Rome contre les Vardéens en 229 fut principalement motivée par le désir de s'assurer le contrôle des lucratives routes de commerce reliant Brundisium à la côte orientale de l'Adriatique. Ce fut en fait l'incapacité des principales puissances grecques à mettre un frein à la piraterie vardéenne qui mena directement à l'intervention romaine. Rome ne montra d'abord que peu d'intérêt envers une expansion ou l'établissement d'une quelconque hégémonie dans l'Orient grec. Elle ne maintint que de vagues relations avec les communautés de la côte est de l'Adriatique. Rome exerça cependant une certaine influence sur le processus de décision de ces communautés au cours des décennies qui suivirent la guerre. Malgré cela, c'était en effet l'absence des romains dans cette région qui mena directement à l'intervention romaine dans la région dix ans plus tard.

▼ In this dissertation I examine the various ways Athenians of several periods of antiquity purposefully reused stone artifacts, objects, and buildings in order to shape their own and their descendants’ collective ideas about their community’s past and its bearing on the present and future. I develop the concept of “upcycling” to refer to this intentionally meaningful reuse, where evidence is preserved of an intentionality behind the decision to re-employ a particular object in a particular new context, often with implications for the shared memory of a group. My investigation makes use of archaeological, literary, and epigraphical evidence to connect seemingly disparate cases of meaningful reuse within a long chronological span, treating the city of Athens as a continuously evolving cultural community. By taking a wide view of reuse with a focus on intentionality and visibility, I fruitfully re-examine some well known cases like the North Acropolis Wall, constructed largely of material from the temples destroyed by the Persians in 480 BCE, and the “itinerant” Temple of Ares, moved from the deme of Pallene into the heart of the Agora in the late 1st century BCE, in conjunction with other case studies including the reuse of the Mycenaean Bastion beneath the Classical Sanctuary of Athena Nike at the entrance to the Acropolis, the preservation of Archaic statues burnt by the Persians and described by Pausanias in the 2nd century CE, the repeated renewal of the Monument of the Eponymous Heroes in the Agora, a group of Classical and Hellenistic portrait statues on the Acropolis rededicated to Roman honorands in the Early Roman period, and the 3rd-century CE Post-Herulian Wall, traditionally dismissed as a typically Late Antique spolia-construction. After an introductory chapter establishing upcycling as a new approach to studying reused material culture, I organize the cases I treat by the level of visibility of the reuse and the correlate effect on social memory I identify. First is a chapter focusing on reuse that accentuates or actively displays the upcycled material in its new context. Next is a group of cases involving reuse that is more subtly visible, where the act of upcycling perpetuates and preserves social memory by making the reused object blend in more or less seamlessly with its surrounding context. In the following chapter I examine cases where the act of reuse itself was meant to be invisible, having the effect, I argue, of altering existing social memory. The final chapter comprises a chronological synthesis and a discussion of the role of upcycling within broader efforts of memory construction at Athens, concluding that reusing physical remains of the past played a key role in the clusters of memory projects that occurred in periods of profound and challenging social or political transformation. In establishing upcycling as a distinct phenomenon of intentionally meaningful reuse, this study offers a process- and agency-focused alternative to the traditional discourses on spolia and reuse, and… Advisors/Committee Members: Stähli, Adrian, Dench, Emma, Bielfeldt, Ruth.

▼ In antiquity, bathing was not the private affair it is today. It was a public activity involving all classes of Roman society. Baths dotted the landscapes of cities across the empire, and even villages, military forts, monasteries, and villas contained public (or semi-public) baths. After an introductory chapter, chapter two provides an introduction to the rich bathing culture of the early Roman empire. It details the social world of the baths, engaging such topics as the role of health care in bathing culture and the nature and extent of mixed bathing in the early Roman world. It then proceeds to an overview of the material evidence, presenting several different types of baths from four select regions in the Roman world. Chapter three analyzes the nature of late antique Christian discourse on baths and bathing. After a discourse analysis I juxtapose other forms of evidence against the ascetic-monastic literature and work toward an understanding of social practice in late Roman bathing culture. Ultimately, the chapter demonstrates that rigorist Christian discourse on baths and bathing in late antiquity served important ideological functions within the Christian community, but should not be taken as an accurate reflection of social practice or mentalities concerning bathing in late antiquity. Chapter four presents a regional study of baths of central and southern Greece, the province of Achaea, and it includes select baths from the islands and Crete. The chapter begins by presenting the archaeological evidence itself. After explaining and presenting the evidence, I analyze the architectural evolution of this body of baths in late antiquity. Ultimately, the architectural evolution of baths in late antiquity offers an opportunity to see how material and cultural forces intersected. I argue that our explanations for the important changes to the architectural design of baths in late antiquity must be sought in the nature of politico-administrative change, economic and fiscal trends and the local and municipal level, and shifting patterns and modes of patronage. In chapter five, I analyze the imperial thermae of Rome in the city’s late antique landscape. I argue that the thermae’s polyvalent meanings ensured their survival in times of stress and change in late antique Rome. The thermae were important monuments to imperial power, aspects of the built environment through which the emperors propagated a propagandistic stance and image of themselves toward their subjects, one rooted in their power, benevolence, and status as connoisseurs and supporters of classical culture. Chapter six concludes the study by summarizing the dissertation’s arguments, drawing some broader connections between chapters, and looking to the Byzantine and Islamic periods. An appendix discusses directions for future work. The dissertation carries implications for how scholars understand the evolution of concepts of the body in late antiquity and the nature of Christianization itself, especially the limits imposed upon the Church when confronted with… Advisors/Committee Members: Gregory, Timothy (Advisor).

▼ Carthage is the least understood imperial actor in the ancient western Mediterranean. The present lack of understanding is primarily a result of the paucity of evidence available for historical study. No continuous Carthaginian literary or historical narrative survives. Due to the thorough nature of Roman destruction and subsequent re-use of the site, archaeological excavations at Carthage have recovered only limited portions of the built environment, material culture and just 6000 Carthaginian inscriptions. As a result of these limitations, over the past century and half, historical study of Carthage during the 6th- 4th centuries BCE traditionally begins with the evidence preserved in the Greco-Roman sources. If Greco-Roman sources are taken as direct evidence of Carthaginian history, these sources document an increase in Carthaginian military activity within the western Mediterranean during the 6th and 5th centuries BCE. Scholars have proposed three different dates for the creation of the Carthaginian Empire from this evidence: c. 650, c.550 or c. 480 BCE. Scholars have generally chosen one of these dates by correlating textual narratives with `corroborating' archaeological evidence. To give an example, certain scholars have argued that destruction layers visible at Phoenician sites in southwestern Sardinia c. 550-500 represent archaeological manifestations of the campaigns of Malchus and Mago's sons recorded in the sources. In contrast to previous studies of Carthaginian imperialism, my presentation begins with the evidence preserved in the archaeological and epigraphic records of Carthage, its colonies and dependencies. By switching evidentiary focus and interpretive method, I establish in this dissertation that the Carthaginian Empire of the 6th-4th centuries BCE, as recovered archaeologically and epigraphically, bears little resemblance to the narratives of the Greco-Roman sources. More importantly, I demonstrate that Carthaginian imperial power leaves archaeological manifestations very similar to those of Athenian or Roman imperial power. Colonization, the establishment of metropolitan political institutions at dependent polities and the reorganization of trade into a metropolitan hub and spoke system are traceable for each of these imperial systems.

▼ This study treats the historical and administrative geography of the regions of southwestern Iran around the Achaemenid Persian palace complex at Persepolis during the fifth century BC. It relies on the evidence of two groups of administrative documents excavated at Persepolis by the Oriental Institute of the University of Chicago: 2,120 published texts and fragments, along with 2,553 unpublished pieces, from the Persepolis Fortification, written in the reign of Darius I, supplemented by 237 published texts and fragments from the Persepolis Treasury, written in the reigns of Xerxes I and Artaxerxes I. The documents record commodities transported among places around Persepolis, and paid out to support workers, officials, travelers and livestock. Frequently occurring impressions of a few seals used by regional offices make it possible to identify administrative districts. Records of movement and storage make it possible observe networks of connections among the places within the districts. Records of outlays make it possible to infer the hinterlands of some nodes in these networks. Records of supplies for parties of travelers make it possible to establish the sequence of stations along the route connecting Persepolis to Susa in the northwest. At least four securely located places provide points of reference for placing the inferred districts, networks and routes in the geographical realities of southwestern Iran. The evidence of the Achaemenid administrative documents can sometimes be supplemented by medieval and early modern Iranian and Arabic geographers' descriptions of settlement and routes, and sometimes by archaeological evidence of Achaemenid occupation. The known Achaemenid administrative texts from Persepolis mention 115 places five times or more. Of these, 88 are discussed here, located in three main administrative districts: 50 in a large region centering on Persepolis (Chapter II); 10 in a smaller region to the northwest, around the modern plain of Kamfiruz (Chapter III); and 28 in a region farther to the northwest, along the route that connected Persepolis to Susa, including modern area of Fahliyan (Chapter IV).

▼ The topic of divine kingship in Mesopotamia, and in the Ur III period (ca. 2112-2004 B.C.E.) in particular, has been the subject of studies focused on aspects such as its ideology, rhetoric, political motivation, and place in the history of religion. This dissertation is concerned with more pragmatic aspects of the phenomenon, and investigates what, if any, effect the institution of divine kingship had on day-to-day life. The Ur III period was selected both because four of its five kings were deified during their lifetime, and over 95,000 administrative, i.e. non-ideologically oriented, records dating to this period are available for analysis. The main focus of this thesis is on cult, the essential signifier of divinity in that society, and, specifically, on the manner in which the cult of the deified king was established, extended, and popularized. The primary source utilized was the Base de Datos de Textos Neo-Sumerios (BDTNS). The first chapter demonstrates that at the center of the cult of the deified king were effigies that underwent numerous ritual treatments and were housed in both their own and in other deities' temples, and that in these respects the king's cult was identical to those of the traditional gods. A list of the individual statues and their locations is provided, in chronological order of attestation. Areas where ramifications of the king's godhood might be identified outside of cult are also addressed. The chapter is bracketed by discussions of divine kingship in the immediately preceding (Sargonic) and following (Isin-Larsa) periods, for comparative purposes. The second chapter provides evidence that processions of cult statues by boat and chariot, and offering before them at specific festivals and sites outside of temples were relatively common events. As cult images of the deified kings were among those so treated, it is clear that the Ur III kings saw the benefit of these practices, with their concomitant festivities, banquets and entertainment, for publicizing their own cult among the largely illiterate populace. In addition, I analyzed the movements and activities of the king himself, as recorded in the administrative archives. These show that the kings were frequently in the public eye as they traveled, mainly by boat, among the cities of southern Babylonia, to ritual events both in- and outside of temple settings. The third chapter addresses the issue of the effect of the concerted efforts to publicize the king's cult on the population at large. settling on onomastics as the best proxy for determining the public's reaction available. Two hundred and sixty-seven individual names in which the name of the deified king was used as a theophoric element are identified, with Šulgi, the second Ur III king and the first of that dynasty to be deified during during his life, the most popular honorée by far. I examine the statements that the holders of these names are making about a particular divine king, and show that virtually all such names have a counterpart incorporating the name… Advisors/Committee Members: Barjamovic, Goyko (advisor).

▼ Trajan conquered Dacia in 106 CE and encouraged one of the largest colonization efforts in the history of the Roman Empire. The new province was rich in natural resources. Immigrants from Dalmatia, Moesia, Noricum, Pannonia, Greece, Syria, Bithynia, Italy, indigenous Dacians, and soldiers from Legio XIII Gemina participated in the extraction of gold from the Apuseni Mountains. The inhabitants of mining settlements around Alburnus Maior and the administrative center Ampelum coexisted under Roman governance but continued to mark their identities in multicultural communities. At Alburnus Maior the presence of wage laborers with access to outside materials and ideas created the opportunity for miners to communicate identity through mediums that have survived. A series of wax tablet legal contracts, altars, and funerary monuments can be combined with recent archaeological data from settlements, burials, and the mines themselves to formulate the broad view necessary to examine the intricacies of group and self-expression. Through this evidence, Alburnus Maior offers a case study for how mobility and colonization in the ancient world could impact identity. Due to the pressures of coping within a multicultural community, miners formed settlements that were central to their daily lives and facilitated the embodiment of state, community, and personal identities. Identity changes over time and can simultaneously communicate several ideas that are hard to categorize. This study approaches this challenge by looking from macro to micro contexts that influenced several expressions of identity. Chapter 2 begins with a historical background that explores the expansion of the Roman Empire and considers how different experiences of conquest influenced the colonists who immigrated to Dacia. The circumstances that led to the massive colonization of Dacia are also considered. Chapter 3 describes how the mines at Alburnus Maior were exploited, who was present, and assesses the impact of state officials, legionaries, and elite entrepreneurs on the formation and expression of state identity through cult, law, and language. The formation of immigrant communities and the working conditions that permeated everyday life at the mines are then considered in the next chapter. Settlement, cult, and religious membership are evaluated for their role in creating and articulating community identities. Chapter 5 then analyzes the personal and sometimes private expression of identity that appears in commemoration, naming conventions, and burial. The three levels of state, community, and personal identities often overlap and collectively show that the hybridization of ideas from several cultures was central to how those at Alburnus Maior negotiated their identity in the Roman Empire.

▼ The Western Zhou period (ca. 1045-771 BCE) saw the dissemination of a particular style of ancestral ritual across North China, as the Zhou royal faction leveraged its familiarity with the ritual techniques of the conquered Shang culture to complement its project of state formation. Looking back on this era as the golden age of governance, Eastern Zhou and Han thinkers sought to codify its ritual in comprehensive textual treatments collectively known as the Sanli and, in particular, the Zhouli, or "Rites of Zhou." Later scholarship has consistently drawn on the Sanli as a reference point and assumed standard for the characterization of Western Zhou rites. Current understandings of the formative era of early Chinese ritual are thus informed by the syncretic and classicizing tendencies of the early empires. To redress this issue, the present study explores the ritual practices of the Western Zhou based on their records on inscribed bronzes, the most extensive source of textual information on the period. It characterizes Western Zhou ancestral rites as fluid phenomena subject to continued redefinition, adoption, cooption, and abandonment as warranted by the different interests of Western Zhou elites. Separate discussions consider the role of ancestral rites and inscribed bronzes in materializing the royal presence within the interaction spheres of elite lineages; the evolution of ritual performances of Zhou kingship, and their relationship to the military and political circumstances of the royal house; the emergence of new ritual contexts of patronage, recognition, and reward that differentiated between members of expanding lineages and intensified royal control over key resources; and the combination of multiple ritual techniques with royal hospitality provision to create major ritual event assemblies. A final synthesis brings these discussions together into a sequential analysis of Western Zhou ritual, relating them to the evolving political situation of the Zhou royal house.

▼ The Grand Cameo for France is the largest cameo surviving from antiquity. Scholars have debated who is portrayed on the stone and what its scene means for centuries, often, although not always, limiting their interpretations to this narrow area and typically only discussing other causes in passing. This pattern can and should be broken, allowing the stone to be what all objects truly are: windows to the lives that that objects have lived, just as all physical things are; evidence of an experience part of the world went though, whose meanings have and continue to be part of a wider network of object-meanings. The underlying purpose of this thesis is to use the Grand Cameo to prove this point. It does so by asking why the Grand Cameo came into being using Aristotle's four-part fragmented "Why" to widen this meaning broadly enough to expand the scope of what cause means from the vernacular use of the term to include material, formal, efficient and final causes. This allows for a sufficiently satisfactory exploration of many elements of the ancient world. This thesis comprises an introduction, five chapters, and a conclusion. The first chapter discusses the material sardonyx itself, its possible origin points and how it would have been seen and used in its time in both the India and the west. It discusses the development of trade routes through the Indian ocean and Hellenistic and Egyptian ties to the east which were later taken over by Rome, as well as the Ptolemies, who they replaced. The second chapter discusses the relationship between Rome and Egypt, how their imagery and materials were usurped, and how this connects to the cameo, a medium that became Roman. Chapter three discusses Rome's absorption and reuse of Hellenistic kingdoms, their people and their culture to see how these influenced images of Roman Rulers in the transition from the Republic to the Julio-Claudians. The fourth chapter details the nature of Julio-Claudian power in Rome, the roles the family took over, and how they made themselves essential to the state, especially in how this relates to imagery from the Grand Cameo. Finally, the fifth chapter allows for the exploration of final cause by using a process of elimination based on living number of family members to establish a coherent narrative for the stone's scene, allowing an interpretation of message and intent. It seems most likely to be justifying the handing over of power to Emperor Claudius as intended by the heavens regardless of the plans of his relatives. A roughly chronological understanding of this stone's role from being plucked from the ground to the imperial court is presented by assessing available material. The expansive nature of the question "Why?" allows for an explanation of the stone both broader and more satisfactory than the intentions of one emperor alone, however interesting. The Grand Cameo intersects with the highly international and interactive dynamics of the ancient world as well as specific elements therein which earlier interpretations do…
