Bithynia’da «Ünlü Cassius’lar»

Yıl 2016, Cilt: Suppl. 1, 206 - 210, 31.08.2016

Öz

Nikomedeia’da ele geçen bir Erken Bizans Dönemi
lahtinin üzerinde ruhban sınıfına ait, adını bil­me­di­ğimiz mezar sahibi
kendisinin «ünlü Cassii» soyundan geldiğini belirtmektedir. Birçok Bithynia
kentin­de Cassius ismini  
taşıyan
şahıslara rastlansa da, Cassius’lar ünlü bir soy olarak sadece Nikaia’da belge­len­miştir.
Olasılıkla Caesar katili Cassius’tan Roma vatandaşlığını alan Nikaia’lı bu
soyun fertleri İ.S. 1. yüz­­yılın ortalarından itibaren takip edilebilmektedir.
Kentin soyluları arasında önemli bir ko­nu­ma sa­hip olan Cassius Asklepiodotos
İmparator Nero tarafından sürgüne gönderil­miş­tir. İznik Gö­lü’nün ku­ze­yinde
bir tepe üzerine kendisine on iki metre yükseklikte bir obelisk yaptıran Cassius
Philis­kos ola­sı­lıkla bu şahsın oğludur. Vespasianus Dönemi’nde kentin doğu
kapısında vali Plancius Varus’un hey­kel­lerini diktiren Cassius Khrestos bu Philiskos’un
bir yakını olmalıdır. Bu ailenin bazı men­supları sena­to sını­fına yükselmeyi
başarmıştır. İ.S. 130 yılının consul suffectus’u Cassius Agrippa muh­temelen
Nikaia kö­kenlidir. Cassius Apronianus ise Commodus Dönemi’nde Lycia ve
Pamphylia eya­letinin vali­li­ğini yap­mış ve ardından İ.S. 182 yılında consul
seçilmiştir. Apronianus ünlü tarihçi Cas­sius Dio’nun ba­ba­sıdır. Bu
tarihçinin torunu veya büyük torunu 3. yüzyılın sonunda consul olarak bel­gelenmiştir.
Böy­­lece Nikaia’lı bu ünlü soyun mensuplarını neredeyse 300 yıl boyunca takip
etmek müm­­kündür. Cas­­sius gen­tilicum’u Bithynia’da Nikaia dışında
Nikomedeia, Prusias ad Hypium ve Kios’ta bel­gelen­miştir.

«Die berühmten Kassier» in Bithynien

Yıl 2016, Cilt: Suppl. 1, 206 - 210, 31.08.2016

Öz

A diakon in Bithynian Nikomedeia, who had a
sarcophagus repaired, claims to be a de­scen­­dant of the “famous Cassii” (TAM
IV.1 no. 368). It is argued that these were the Cassii to which the historian
Cassius Dio from Nikaia belonged. His family is frequently attested in in­scrip­tions
in this city and their first known member was C. Cassius Asclepiodotus under
Nero and Gal­ba, who was the father of C. Cassius Philiscus. The latter’s
contemporary relations include anot­her Asclepiodotus (his son or grandson) and
a C. Cassius Chrestus. This Chrestus was a friend of the governor M. Plancius
Varus, a second, but older Chrestus was priest of the imperial cult and sebas­to­phantes.
Later, several consuls are known: C. Cassius Agrippa (?), the historian’s
father, Cas­sius Apro­nianus, and his homonymous (great-)grandson. Finally,
there is an undated P. Cas­sius Epi­genes. In sum, the fame of the Cassii was
such that it could still be recalled in the Christian period.
