Rhodes in Ancient Times (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from Rhodes in Ancient Times Much light has been thrown in late years on the ancient condition of Rhodes. Some three hundred and fifty inscriptions have been found in the island since Hamilton found the first in 1837, and these have been published in collections of inscriptions and in the various archaeological journals. Large numbers of statuettes, vases, coins, gems, etc. have also been found there within the last thirty years, chiefly in the excavations on the sites of Ialysos and Camiros and of some town near the modern village of Siana; and the finest of these may be seen in the British Museum, the Louvre, and the Berlin Museum. But no complete statement has yet been attempted of the results derived from these new materials as well as from those previously accessible. Apparently the only modern works dealing with the subject are these. Meursius, Rhodus, 1675, contains about two-thirds of the passages from the classics that bear on the subject, and also one inscription found at Brindisi. These passages are heaped together without regard to their relative value, and sometimes with amusing forgetfulness of their contexts; and the references are very vague.

Not illustrated. 1887 edition. Excerpt: ... III. Religion. In the reign of Diocletian, Clement of Ancyra was sent bound from Rome to Nicomedeia, and on his way he came to Rhodes. It was the Lord's day, and the few Christians that dwelt in the island were gathered together in their church: and when Photeinos their bishop heard of the coming of Clement and of Agathangelos who went with him and of all that they had suffered for their faith, he straightway went down with many of the Christians to where the ship lay and persuaded the guard to loosen the bonds of their prisoners and suffer them to come to the church; and they all went up thither chanting hymns as they went. Then was the gospel read bidding them fear not them which kill the body but are not able to kill the soul; and this ended, Clement began to perform the mystic oblation, and as he prayed a miracle was seen by many of them there present, to wit, by such of them as were worthy to behold these things; for upon the holy table was seen a glowing ember of fire, and in the air above a multitude of angels. Afterward they ate together in the church; but the fame of the miracle spread throughout the city so that the people brought the sick to Clement, and many were healed in body and many were baptized. But the guard, seeing the favour of the people toward Clement and fearing they would release him, bound him again and brought him to the ship1. 1 Acta Sanctorum, 33 January, 464, 476. The Severian heresy, which belongs to the Second Century, is said to have appeared first at Rhodes, and several of the arguments used against it by Euphranon, bishop of Rhodes, have been recorded: when these failed, he excommunicated his opponents.
