This book reviews the history of a Greek city, Ephesus, during a period of transformations which covered the Late Hellenistic period and the beginning of the Roman Empire. The period between 133 a.C. and 48 p.C saw the coming and rise of Rome in Asia Minor, the acceptance of Roman-Italic domination by the Greeks, and the integration of Italian immigrants into the civic divisions of a provincial capital. The history is set at the cross road of different actual approaches, crossed integrations and cultural intersections in a global Empire, and successful provincialisation. The book also addresses the pace of Rome in a large city opened to external influences and the integration of immigrants in local institutions. Ephesus thus becomes in this way the city of Asia Minor with the most visible Roman influence and presence: the evolution of both the political system and the town building planning demonstrates this new reality in local political life, religious practices and constructions. Ephesus comes out from this process lastingly transformed.
