Abstract

Yazar makalesinde Güneybatı Phrygia’da yer
alan Lykos kıyısındaki Laodikeia’da bulunmuş olup kısa bir süre önce
yayımlanan, İ.Ö. 3. yüzyıl veya erken 2. yüzyıl tarihli isopoliteia
kararnamesinin edisyo-nunu yeniden yapmaktadır. Hangi kent tarafından alındığı
bilinmeyen (bu kent makalede “X kenti” olarak anılmaktadır) kararname, daha
önce Laodikeialılar tarafından söz konusu X kentine tanınmış isopolitea’yı
rapor eden Laodikeia elçi heyetine cevaben Laodikeia yurttaşlarına vatandaşlık
hakkı ve başka imtiyazlar bahşetmektedir. Yazıtın çeşitli satırlarına yeni
tamamlama önerileri getiren yazar, kararnameyi geçiren kentin, ilk
editörlerinin düşündükleri gibi Karia’daki Stratonikeia değil, Maiandros
Vadisi’nde yer alan Seleukeia–Tralleis olması gerektiğini tartışmaktadır.

A Hellenistic isopoliteia decree from Laodikeia on the Lykos

Abstract

The author re-edits a recently published decree of isopoliteia
from Laodikeia on the Lykos in south-west Phrygia, dated on the basis of
letter-forms to the third or early second century BC. The decree (passed by a
city whose identity is uncertain, “city x”) confers citizenship and various
other privileges on the people of Laodikeia, in response to a Laodikeian
embassy reporting an earlier grant of isopoliteia from the Laodikeians to “city
x”. The author proposes various new restorations to the text of the decree, and
argues that the city responsible for passing the extant decree is not (as the
first editor had suggested) Stratonikeia in Karia, but the city of
Seleukeia–Tralleis in the Maeander valley.
