Honoring the King in the Seleukid and Ptolemaic Empires

A Comparative Approac. Part 2 1
Catharine C. Lorber
Independent Researcher
Abstract
The paper provides a dossier of honors offered to Seleukid and Ptolemaic kings, preceded by
a brief introduction.
Keywords: Seleukid, Ptolemy, reception of kingship, honors, inscriptions.
Introduction
Honors offered to Hellenistic rulers by their subjects are evidence for the favorable re-
ception of royal rule. “Honoring the King, Part 1” surveys the honors offered to Seleu-
kid rulers, with a focus on regions outside Asia Minor, and offers a comparison with
honors offered to the Ptolemies, again largely excluding Asia Minor. The relatively lim-
ited record of honors to Seleukid rulers outside Asia Minor could be evidence of tepid
support for Seleukid kingship in the east. But other factors might also account for the
peculiarities of the record. The early development of dynastic and royal cult by Ptole-
my II stimulated the offering of honors by courtiers and ultimately by other subjects,
resulting in a culture of conspicuous displays of loyalty, whereas several generations
*A first version of this paper was written for Seleukid Study Day VI, whose theme was the reception of

Seleukid rule. I am grateful to Altay Coşkun and Richard Wenghofor for inviting me to participate in Seleukid
Study Day VI, and to Vito Messina for useful discussions.

passed before Antiochos III attempted a corresponding implantation of Seleukid royal

and dynastic cult.
Differences in the intensity of honors within the Ptolemaic kingdom suggest that
local cultural, religious, and even social traditions played an important role: Syria and
Phoinike produced no more honors for the Ptolemies than did Koile Syria and Phoenike
for the Seleukids, and in both cases at least some of the dedications are attributable to
state functionaries who were not personally connected to the province. Kyrenaika also
produced few honors for the Ptolemies, and on Cyprus honors to Ptolemaic officials and
their family members were nearly as prevalent as those offered to or for the rulers. Even
in Egypt, honors to the rulers are concentrated geographically, in Alexandria and envi-
rons, in the Arsinoite nome (the Fayum), and in the temples of the First Cataract region.
The first two regions were strongly impacted by Greek immigration, yet this alone is not
a sufficient explanation, for Ptolemais in the Thebaid, an important Greek foundation of
Ptolemy I, has yielded very few individual dedications. The First Cataract region was
a highly militarized zone marking the southern border of Egypt, with scant space for a ci-
vilian population.
In the Seleukid east, cultural tradition shaped the practice of offering prayers or dedi
cations to traditional gods for the wellbeing of the rulers, notably in Babylonian temples.
Slave manumission documents follow a comparable format, dedicating the freed slave
to a traditional deity or deities for the soteria of the rulers. These manumissions are con-
centrated at Antioch on the Eulaios (a royal re-foundation of Susa) and all the identified
dedicators have Greek names, suggesting a blending of local and Greek traditions. In con-
trast, the evidence for ruler cults is strongly associated with military colonies and royal
foundations, consistent with an assumption that they were imposed by the state.
Dedications to Seleukid rulers were offered primarily by subjects with Greek names.
The scarcity of such dedications may (or may not) be a clue that Greek immigration to the
Seleukid east was more limited than sometimes assumed. In terms of occupation, these
dedications were offered mainly by officials and courtiers, by priests and religious asso-
ciations, and by members of the military, that is, by elite groups essential to the function-
ing of the kingdom, who in many or most cases derived their livelihood from service to
the state. The Ptolemaic record is similar, except that Greek names may often conceal
Hellenized Egyptians, and the dedicators are more diverse occupationally, though mili-
tary, official, and priestly dedicators remain dominant.
Part 2 of “Honoring the King” presents the dossiers of honors to Seleukid and Ptole-
maic rulers which were under the discussion in Part 1. The sources are almost exclu-
sively Greek inscriptions, but they also include literary references and the occasional
papyrus or uninscribed artifact. The honors are divided into three types: those offered di-
rectly to a ruler or royal family member; those offered to a traditional deity or deities for
the well-being of the rulers or implicating the rulers through the preposition hyper (es-
pecially characteristic of Egypt); and honors offered to officials, which imply or explic-
itly express support for the rulers. Numerous citations were added to the Ptolemaic part
of the dossier even after Part 1 of “Honoring the King” was in press, on the assumption
that a more complete dossier would be more useful to other researchers. As a result, the
dossier no longer aligns with some of the quantitative statements made in Part 1; but the
general patterns reported there remain valid.
