Objectives of the Course

Main objective of this course is to examine Roman and Anatolian relations in Roman Imperial Period (31/27 BC – AD 476).

Course Content

According to the traditional belief, Rome, which was founded in the IÖ 753, moved to the Republican administration after the Kingdom administration and then to the Empire. The Battle of Carthage, which was carried out within the Republican period of Rome, is an alliance with the kingdom of Pergamon, a strong Hellenistic state established in western Anatolia, especially as a result of the II Carthage War. As a result of the Macedonian Wars, Rome's Anatolian policy has been identified in Magnesia near Mount Sipylos, when the Romans were worried about the growing kingdom of Seleukos and the strengthening of Anatolia. In this context, the Anatolian policy of Rome will be examined and the Roman Anatolian relations will be assessed in all aspects.
