Summary

Primary historical, epigraphic and archeological evidence and research on Early Hellenistic Colophon are re-examined in this study. More specifically, the article deals with a famous inscription found on the site at the beginning of the 20th century (SEG 19.698) regarding the unification of the hyparchousa polis and the palaia polis of Colophon within a large wall-circuit, as well as the building of a new agora, streets, and other public edifices. A new dating for this decree – traditionally dated either under Alexander the Great or Antigonus Monophthalmus – is offered, namely to 296 BCE, when Colophon was included in the anti-lysimachean alliance of Demetrius Poliorcetes and Seleucus. In light of archaeological evidence, the traditional historical view according to which Lysimachus deported en masse the Colophonians to Ephesus / Arsinoeia and razed the original settlement is radically rejected. The article also offers new insights on the unclear relationships between inland Colophon and Notion / Colophon by the Sea in the late fourth – early third century BCE.

Keywords: Asia Minor; Colophon; Diadochs; Early Hellenistic Age; Inscriptions; Urban Settlement

Acknowledgment

A preliminary version of this article was presented at the International Conference „Continuity and Destruction in Alexander’s East“, held on May 6th–7th, 2011, at the University of Oxford. I wish to thank the organizers of this Conference, and especially Professor John Ma, Sujatha Chandrasekaran and Anna Kouremenos for their useful comments on the paper. I would also like to thank Prof. Dr. Georg Petzl (Universität zu Köln) for the negatives of the fragments and Prof. Dr. Verena Gassner (Universität Wien), Dr. Alan Greaves (University of Liverpool) and Dr. Luigi Vecchio (Università di Salerno) for their informations on recent excavations in Colophon. None of the above, however, is responsible for any possible infelicity in the present article.
