On the \u201cDynastic\u201d Toponymy of Cilicia Pedias in the Roman Empire (until ca. AD 260) with Particular Reference to the Numismatic Evidence
Abstract: The article focuses on the formation of the \u201cdynastic\u201d toponymy of Cilicia Pedias in the Roman Empire (until ca. AD 260). The occurrence of place names derived from the rulers and individuals associated with them is analysed in the context of factors such as the growing strategic importance of the region, internal power struggles within the Roman state, municipal rivalries or the imperial journeys. Based on changing political and social circumstances, the form in which the emperors were honoured (title or \u201cproper\u201d place name), and the attested duration of the use of these appellations, three stages in the formation of the above-mentioned toponymy have been distinguished: 1. from Augustus to Trajan, 2. from Trajan to Macrinus, 3. from Macrinus to Valerian and Gallienus. A considerable number of the names discussed are attested only on coins, and some of the hypotheses concerning them are important for the study of local dynastic toponymy. The list of East Cilician localities bearing the dynastic appellations in the 2\u207f\u1d48 and 3\u02b3\u1d48 centuries AD is interesting in the light of Cassius Dio\u2019s remark regarding the adoption of such names by the cities of his time.
