Prosopographia Ponti Euxini. Byzantion

Abstract

The author presents the results of a work in progress research, respectively a prosopography on the population attested in the Greek cities of the Black Sea and Propontis (Prosopographia Ponti Euxini), focusing in this case (based on the epigraphic sources) on the population of Byzantion. As such, the paper will focus on the epigraphically attested quantitative data on the population of Byzantion, and on the qualitative data, covering the period between the first epigraphic attestations and up to the 3rd century AD. The work includes a prosopographical catalogue with the epigraphically attested population.
