The arrangements in Roman Repuclic Period in Pontos. This article investigates the process of Roman Province establishment on the former territory of the defeated Mithradates VI Eupator. The first arrangements to this end were made by Lucullus, who had maintained the campaign against Mithradates in this territory and he had wrought heavy damage on the king’s forces and played an important role in winning this bitter campaign. Assesments are made of both the lex that later carried Pompey’s name and of the regulations issued by Pompey Magnus, who had taken command of the campaign after lengthy disputes in the Senate, from Lucullus and who administered Mithradates final defeat and then established part of the kingdom as a province combined with Bithynia. Following this, the lengthy delay in the process of the ratifications of the rules made by Pompey to administer the province; a process which in the senate that lasted for two years from 61 to 59, whereby and finally still without senate approval, but under the authority of Ceasar, the lex of the province became legal, is enquired into. Also the question of when and under what circumstances the Lex Pompeia, as opposed to the previous regulations, was applied is addressed; and the contents of this lex in respect to births in the province, an issue of consequence due to the great population loss caused by warfare and related and other disasters, is investigated. In the final section some regulations made by Iulius Caesar, who came to the area because of Pharnakes, Mithradates’s son, who wanted to regain his ancestral kingdom from Rome but was defeated by Caesar; and the important regulations and arrangements made by Marc Antony in Pontus, who had previously shared power in Rome with Octavian and Lepidus, and who then took control of the lands east of the Ionian Sea, is an aspect of this issue that is also enquired into

Bu çalışmada, Pergamon krallığının M.Ö. 133 yılında miras bırakılmasından sonra Anadolu’ya kalıcı olarak yerleşmeye yönelik ilk adımı atan Romalılara karşı verdiği uzun soluklu mücadeleyi kaybeden Mithradates VI Eupator’un kraliyet topraklarının eyalet olarak düzenlenme süreci irdelenmiştir. Çalışmanın başlangıcını mücadeleyi Pontos’a kaydırarak krala karşı yürütülen savaşın kazanılmasında önemli bir rol oynayan Lucius Licinius Lucullus’un bölgede yaptığı çalışmalar oluşturmaktadır. Bunu Lucullus’tan görevi teslim aldıktan sonra krala nihai darbeyi vuran ve bölgeyi eyalet haline getiren Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus’un bölgede yaptığı sınır düzenlemeleri, kendi adıyla bölgede yürürlüğe giren lex Pompeia’nın onaylanma aşamasında yaşanan gelişmeler ve yasa üzerine yapılan bazı değerlendirmeler takip etmektedir. Son bölümde ise Roma eyaleti haline getirilen krallık topraklarını geri almak isteyen kralın oğlu Pharnakes’i yenilgiye uğratan Iulius Caesar’ın bölgede yaptığı düzenlemeler ve Octavianus ile Roma topraklarını paylaşan Marcus Antonius’un kendisine kalan Pontos Bölgesi’nde yaptığı yeni düzenlemeler alınmaktadır
