Title:
Hebdomon in the imperial ideology of new Rome according to a text in the chronicle by John Skylitzes
Creator:
Dudek, Jarosław
Description:
Fourty years have passed since the critical edition of “An Outline of History” (Synopsis Historion). In terms of the genre classification of the Byzantine literature, it is the chronicle of the history of the reign of the subsequent Byzantine emperors from 811 to 1057. The suburb of Hebdomon appears several times in “An Outline of History” and it plays a number of roles in the political customs of the then Byzantium. It functioned as a place of the enthronement of the Byzantineemperors, their triumphs, their ceremonious arrivals in the capital city, their departures beyond the walls of Constantinople and, in some cases, as a place of their burial. The term “Hebdomon” derives from the Greek numeral ébdomos, and it refers to the Latin expression septimum miliarium. It encompasses an area situated at a distance of seven Roman miles (c. 10 km) from the symbolic centre of Constantinople in the Augusteon square.
