Griechische Epigraphik in Lykien
註釋Since the beginning of systematic research in the 19th century, Lycia in south-western Turkey has proven to be extremely rewarding for epigraphical fieldwork. The region was densely settled in antiquity, and the ruins of numerous ancient cities are still well preserved on the surface. These sites produce a continuous influx of new inscriptions, with the multiplication of excavation and survey activities during the last two decades even increasing the quantity of new disvoveries. The current dynamics of research on ancient Lycia is reflected in a great number of publications, both of new inscriptions and of systematic studies of the epigraphic material. The present volume is based on an international conference held at Munich in 2005 which aimed at striking an interim balance and discussing perspectives of future research. Single papers partly contain editions of new texts, partly adress general historical problems, with a focus on the relations between Rome and the Lycian Confederacy in the late Hellenistic period, the foundation of the province of Lykia, and the social history of the Lycian elites during the Imperial period.
