Xanten-Vetera - Analyse et caractérisation du processus de colonisation et de romanisation d’une région frontalière en Germanie inférieure

Ce mémoire analyse le processus de romanisation et de colonisation de Xanten-Vetera, une région frontalière de l’Empire romain située en basse Rhénanie dans la province romaine de Germania inferior. À l’intérieur d’un cadre temporel inclus entre les conquêtes de Jules César et le milieu du second siècle apr. J.-C., l’étude cherche à comprendre et à restituer la présence militaire ainsi que le développement des peuplades civiles sur place, du fait des transferts de population et de l’immigration gallo-romaine. Le processus de romanisation est analysé en tenant compte des réalités ethnographiques, sociales et culturelles et selon les théories les plus actuelles de la recherche moderne sur ce sujet. Comme il s’agit d’une agglomération située sur une voie fluviale en périphérie de l’Empire, le concept de « frontière » y est évalué afin d’estimer si Xanten-Vetera constituait une zone de convergence ou de divergence par rapport à l’espace rhénan. Dans un deuxième temps, cette recherche analyse le contexte militaire et social durant lequel l’empereur Trajan prit la décision d’octroyer le statut de colonie à ce territoire qui devint la Colonia Ulpia Traiana. Cette démarche qui se veut régionale souligne la nature particulière de l’histoire de Xanten-Vetera sous le Haut Empire ; les migrations et les tragédies à l’intérieur de cet espace géographique ont façonné un endroit au destin unique en Germanie et dans l’Empire romain. Enfin, ce travail fournit un exemple pertinent de l’évolution des motivations qui ont guidé les politiques coloniales sous les Julio-Claudiens, les Flaviens et les Antonins et suggère l’essor des groupes de pression non militaires dans ce contexte.

Citrus as a component of the Mediterranean Diet

Citrus are native to southeastern Asia, but are present in the Mediterranean basin for centuries. This group of species has reached great importance in some of the Mediterranean countries and, in the case of orange, mandarin and lemon trees, they found here soil and climatic conditions which allows them to achieve a high level of fruit quality, even better than in the regions where they came from. Citrus fruits are present in the diet of the peoples living on the Mediterranean basin, at least since the time of the Roman Empire. In the 20th century they became the main crop in various agricultural areas of the Mediterranean, playing an important role in the landscape, in the diet of the overall population, and also in international trade. They are present in the gardens of palaces and monasteries, but also in the courtyards and orchards of the poorest families. Their fruits are not only a refreshing dessert, but also a condiment, or even a major component of many dishes. Citrus fruits have well-documented nutritional and health benefits. They can actually help prevent and cure some diseases and, above all, they are essential in a balanced and tasty diet.
