Abstract

This article presents the results of a review of the procedure for the deductio (foundation ritual) of a Roman colony called Iulia Genetiva, as described in its statute. I use Chapter 104 in an attempt to reconstruct the developments attending the colony’s foundation. The fundamental question is whether the laconic information given by Chapter 104 allows for the reconstruction of a coherent picture of the situation at the time of the foundation. My analysis is supplemented with information on the contemporary political situation in Rome.

Keywords:

lex coloniae Genetivae Iuliae; , deductio coloniae; , Julius Caesar; , Mark Antony.
