Abstract

Established as an independent province during the reign of Emperor Gordian III (238-244), Isauria was later restructured under Diocletian's (284-305) administrative reforms and redefined as a militarized frontier province. This new provincial status came under the authority of governors from the equestrian order, who were vested with both civil and military powers. Although records indicate that over twenty governors served in Isauria during Late Antiquity, it is likely that not all appointments have yet been identified or documented. In many cases, information regarding the early careers of these governors remains either scarce or entirely absent. Nevertheless, existing evidence suggests that the majority of them came from military backgrounds and were appointed to Isauria after holding various positions within the Roman army. Moreover, a key criterion for governorship appears to have been both elevated social status and proximity to the imperial court. Notably, five known governors bore the name Flavius, a designation associated with aristocratic rank and imperial favour since the time of Constantine (307-337). While the post-Isaurian trajectories of many governors cannot be determined with certainty, a considerable number seem to have advanced to higher offices. This study examines the professional backgrounds of the governors of the Province of Isauria in light of ancient literary sources and Late Roman Greek and Latin inscriptions, and evaluates the importance of the governorship of the Province of Isauria during this period.

Özet

İmparator III. Gordianus Dönemi’nde (238-244) bağımsız bir eyalet olduğu bilinen Isauria, Diocletianus’un (284-305) reformları çerçevesinde yeniden düzenlenmiş ve diğer sınır eyaletlerinde olduğu gibi askeri karakterli bir idari bölgeye dönüştürülmüştür. Bu yeni eyalet, sivil ve askeri yetkilerle donatılmış atlı sınıfından valilerce idare edilmiştir. Geç Antik Dönem Isauria Eyaleti’nde yirminin üzerinde valinin görev yaptığı bilinmekle beraber, muhtemelen henüz eyalet yöneticilerin tamamı belgelenmiş değildir. Isauria yöneticilerinin çoğunun kariyerlerinin ilk dönemlerine dair ya hiç bilgi bulunmamakta ya da mevcut bilgiler sınırlı kalmaktadır. Bununla birlikte eyalet valilerinin büyük bir bölümünün asker kökenli oldukları, ordunun değişik mevkilerinde görev aldıktan sonra Isauria Eyaleti yöneticiliğine atandıkları anlaşılmaktadır. Ayrıca Isauria Eyaleti valiliği için temel kriterlerden birisinin de imparatorlara olan yakınlık ve yüksek statü olduğu görülmektedir. Nitekim Geç Antik Dönem Isauria Eyaleti yöneticilerinden beşi Flavius adı taşımaktadır ki bu ismin İmparator Constantinus’tan (307-337) itibaren yüksek bir statü göstergesi olduğu bilinmektedir. Isauria Eyaleti’nde görevli valilerin görev sürelerinin bitiminden sonraki kariyer durumları tam olarak tespit edilememekle beraber önemli bir bölümünün terfi etmiş olduğu izlenimi edinilmektedir. Bu çalışmada Antik edebi kaynaklar ile Geç Roma Dönemi Grekçe ve Latince yazıtlar ışığında Isauria Eyaleti yöneticilerinin mesleki mesleki geçmişleri ele alınmış ve Isauria Eyaleti valiliğinin bu süreçteki önemi değerlendirilmiştir.
