These issues span Antioch’s first generations under Roman rule, from the Pompeian settlement to the governorship of Q. Caecilius Metellus Creticus Silanus. Their traditional Zeus imagery and civic legends show how local identity and institutions endured within a new provincial administration. As the seat of governors and a hub linking Mediterranean commerce with inland routes, Antioch became the chief administrative, military and economic metropolis of the Roman east.
