Extract

This survey of developments in Roman Epigraphy is innovatory in being the work of a team, whose range of interests should ensure the inclusion of a wider variety of texts than heretofore. We have all made some contribution, larger or smaller, to most sections, but, in the last resort, each section represents a personal choice by its writer. It may help the reader, therefore, to know that sections I and II are by Joyce Reynolds, III, VII, part of IX, and XI by Mary Beard, IV, V, VI and part of IX by Richard Duncan-Jones, and VIII and X by Charlotte Roueché.

1 In preparing this article—particularly section I— we have been keenly aware of the loss of Martin Frederiksen, who had provided very valuable help in the past, and had promised it again. After his death his notebooks were made available by N. Purcell; but we are very conscious of missing his unrivalled knowledge of the Italian material. We have incurred debts to more friends than can be listed here: in particular, A. Poulter and J. Wilkes helped us cope with the Eastern European material; R. Gordon, J. North and S. Price offered comments on section VII, and K. Hopkins and N. Purcell on section IX.

177 Speidel, M. P., JRS 63 (1973) 141Google Scholar; Kaimio, J., Arctos 9 (1975) 39Google Scholar adds little. If the ratio (for foot-soldiers) were 5/6, the annual pay of a miles legionis under Diocletian would have the unlikely total of 1542½ denarii, since an eques alae then received 1800; whereas the 2/3 ratio in Speidel's reconstruction places the legionary on a par with the eques alae. (For the Diocletianic rates, see Duncan-Jones, R. P., Chiron 8 (1978) 541Google Scholar.) The attempt by D. J. Breeze to contest Speidel's interpretation involves the un likely assumption that Maximus took a cut in pay when he moved from being vexillarius equitum to become duplicarius alae (AE 1969. 583; JRS 61 (1971) 135, cf. Speidel, o.c, nn. 17–18). B. Dobson, AncSoc 3 (1972) 193, has compared the pay and prospects of the legionary centurion with those of the equestrian officer.

The nature of the monument representing Romulus and Remus is also unclear; Sarikakis conceived of an inscribed narrative history, while Moretti favours an artistic representation.

Colonna, NSA 29 (1975) 37, has published fragments of two inscribed calendars from the region of Viterbo; the later is dated to the second century A.D., although it has commonly been assumed that (with the exception of S. Maria Maggiore) such texts did not extend so late.

197 The need for such revision is made clear by Pippidi's rereading and redating of the text recording the foundation of the temple of Mithras at Histria, (Hommages Vermaseren (1978) 967)Google Scholar. If P. is correct, this would reveal the full integration of the municipal elite into the cult by the middle of the second century A.D., which is hardly compatible with the traditional view.

213 In general, recent studies have justified the scepticism of Hopkins, K. (Population Studies 20 (1966) 245CrossRefGoogle Scholar) and others. B. Boyayal, for example, suggests that apparent variations in mortality rates obtained from Greco-Roman funerary inscriptions in Egypt should be explained in terms of histoire de mentalité, not of demography (ZPE 28 (1978) 193, with ZPE 21 (1976) 217 and ZPE 26 (1977) 262). Further problems are raised by M. Clauss, AntAfr 9 (1975) 109. and Duncan-Jones, R. P., Chiron 7 (1977) 333Google Scholar, and ZPE 33 (1979) 169 (emphasizing the distortion inherent in tombstone age figures), while J. Aquilella Almer and others, AntAfr 9 (1975) 115, present mathematical formulae for determining the validity of inscription samples; it is hard to assess the value of this exercise. A less critical approach towards epigraphic source material is still sometimes adopted—e.g. Lassère, J. M., Ubique populus (1977)Google Scholar—not entirely convincingly.

214 It is impossible to list here all the important contributions in this area; but, for an indication of the range of problems illustrated by onomastic study, note Duval, N.

215 B. Holtheide, ZPE 38 (1980) 127, considers the title femina stolata, and shows that it was not a way of referring to the ius trium liberorum, but was commonly used in the third century A.D. for wives of centenarii or ducenarii. Honesta femina is discussed by Z. Benzina Ben-Abdullah and L. Ladjimi Sebaï, AntAfr II (1977) 161.

216 S. Treggiari, AJAH I (1976) 76, discusses the range of ‘indoor employment’ for female urban slaves. This is to be related to her earlier study, PBSR 30 (1975) 48, of jobs for both male and female slaves and liberti in the household of Livia, based largely on the memorial plaques from the monumentum Liviae.
