Miliarium

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Replica of a find in Gilching with the inscription "AVG MP XXXI" (" Augsburg 31 miles")
The Roman milestone of Wels with the inscription "MP I" ("1 mile")

A miliarium (Greek as a foreign word μιλιάριον miliárion ; plural: miliaria ) was a distance column on a Roman road ( milestone ) in the Roman Empire . Stones of this kind have been around since the 3rd century BC. In the road construction program of Gaius Sempronius Gracchus , they apparently experienced a first high point (Plut. C. Gracchus 7), and they actually reached their peak during the imperial era . But it seems that there were not miliaria on all streets.

General

The stone pillars, taller than a man (sometimes up to three meters high) and with a diameter of 50 to 60 centimeters, were an essential element of location and distance. The distance is given in Roman miles (1000 double steps, "mille passus", "milia passuum", abbreviated MP), which is just under 1.5 km; the Greek equivalent of eight stages is also not uniform.

In Rome , the Miliarium Aureum , the "golden pillar of miles" stood on the Forum Romanum (it was made of bronze, only the inscription, which named the most important roads from Rome and their final destinations, was made of gold letters). In the individual provinces the capital is often the starting point (caput viae) ; so all the milestones found in Raetia count from the provincial capital Augsburg ( Augusta Vindelicorum ) , which suggests that the streets were measured from there. In more developed areas it is also possible to calculate from the central points of individual peoples ( civitates ).

Since the stones were seen by many people, they are of course an excellent means of propaganda . Since Augustus , this "medium" has been reserved for the ruler, although governors are occasionally also named. Over time, regular forms emerged which, in addition to dating, offer a (standardized) reference to the reason for the installation of the stone. In many cases this can be used to fill gaps in the inscription.

From the time of the adoptive emperors , a transfer of responsibility for the maintenance of the roads (cura viarum) to individual communities can be determined. The homogeneity of the series of inscriptions decreases as a result. The starting point for the count on the pillars that were now placed by the parishes was the forum or the city gates of the parish. A correspondence of jurisdiction with the territory of the civitates is not always ascertainable.

Today around 7000–8000 stones from the Imperial Age are known. They are an important source for knowledge of the history and routing of the roads, but also for the general administration of the Reich and the organization of the rulers.

It should be noted, however, that they were often dragged off as building material, and sometimes they were transported far by ship. A reconstruction of Roman routes based on the finds of milestone and leugen stones is only possible in very rare cases.

Leugensteine

Leugenstein from Friedberg, Hesse, installation in the Wetterau Museum

In certain, formerly Celtic areas of the Gallic and Germanic provinces, calculations were not made with miles, but with Leugen , which correspond to 1.5 MP, i.e. about 2.22 km. Therefore one speaks here of Leugenstones. They arose since Trajan times and have been common in these regions since Septimius Severus .
