Gades in the context of Caesar’s civil law policy
Abstrak
The study discusses the issue of the date and prerequisites for Hades to acquire the legal status of a Roman municipality. Based on information from ancient authors and urban inscriptions, an assumption has been made about the period of the emergence of the Roman system of self-government in the city and the granting of municipal status to it. Some researchers are inclined to recognize that Hades received the status of a municipality from Caesar, while others attribute this act to the era of Augustus, seeing Caesar’s activity as an intermediate stage in the formation of the legal status of the city. In the course of the study, the author came to the conclusion that Hades received the status of a municipality in 49 BC under Caesar both as a result of the city’s previous position as an ally of the Roman people, and as part of Caesar’s civil law policy aimed at spreading Roman citizenship in the provinces and integrating local communities into the Roman system of public relations.
