This paper presents a new edition of a boundary stone between Capua (on Crete) and Knossos. I identify the post of Publius Messius Campanus as procurator Campaniae rather than procurator Caesaris. The appearance of the procurator Campaniae on Crete is linked to a dispute between the colony of Capua and a private citizen called Plotius Plebeius. This new reading has several important historical consequences: first, it is the earliest attestation of a procurator Campaniae (and the first outside Italy); second, it offers a new interpretation of the juridical category of Knossian lands as part of the ager vectigalis of the Italian colony of Capua in the form of a praefectura Campana or Capuensis; third, it proposes a reinterpretation of the process of arbitration between a public entity (Capua) and a private owner.
ResumenSe presenta un miliario inédito hallado fortuitamente en La Rinconada (Sevilla) en 2014. Dicho miliario pertenece a una serie de la que se conocían tres ejemplares más. Aparte de presentar el epígrafe, el número de este ejemplar (I) permite hacer una hipótesis sobre el caput viae y la vía a la que pudieron pertenecer los miliarios de esta serie.Palabras clave: Miliario romano, caput viae, vías romanas, Baetica.
AbstractThis article presents an unpublished milestone found by chance in the town of La Rinconada (Sevilla) in 2014. The quoted epigraph belongs to a series of three identical milestones already known. Taking this new milestone, whose number of mile (I) is the only one different from the others, allows me to launch the hypothesis about the caput viae and the road where the series would be placed.
La voie XXI de l’ Itinéraire d’Antonin est une des plus complexes à comprendre. Son tracé zigzagant a été l’objet de polémiques. Cette étude propose un certain nombre d’hypothèses de correction d’un texte corrompu en se basant sur une comparaison avec les voies qui l’environnent pour mieux comprendre son tracé original. Les limites provinciales jouant un rôle important s’avèrent être compliquées, mais elles sont examinées ici dans leur rôle d’influence sur la perception de l’espace et sur l’imbrication du système viaire en lien avec l’administration provinciale dans cette zone.
