The two Mauretaniae : their romanization and the imperial cultGironi, Claudia 11 1900 (has links)
The 'Romanization' of the African provinces of Mauretania Tingitana and
Mauretania Caesariensis was in fact a two-way process of exchange between
Roman and African elements which resulted in a uniquely Romano-African
civilization. The imperial cult highlights issues common to all Romanization
processes, such as ruler-subject interaction and the role of local initiative
in bringing about change, as well as unique issues such as the impact of
politics on emperor-worship. The success of the imperial cult was hampered
by the fact that only a select few - notably the wealthy local elite -
derived direct benefit from the process, and by the fact that, because the
pre-Roman Mauretaniae had no established ruler-cults, the imperial cult
failed to assimilate with local tradition. As a result, the cult was unable
either to make a decisive impact on the Romanization of the Mauretanians, or
to achieve any real religious unity among them. / History / M.A. (Ancient History)
