Since 1965 the waters of Suǧla Gölü have expanded to reach its original shore-lines, after several years during which the bed of the Lake had been almost completely dry. The Lake has remained at this level, and profitable fishing has been resumed by the villagers of Yalı Hüyük.

³¹ If ṬH represents the number 308, then the question which presents itself is to what sequence of numbers this boundary stone belongs. Can it be one of a series defining an Imperial estate, perhaps the confiscated territory of the Homonadeis? If so, why have no other members of this series been found?

This monument, reviewed in 1961, and built into the base of the mosque in the village of Kıstıfan, near Beyşehir, has clearly been brought from the hill country further south.

If my argument below is correct, Tosuntaşı will in fact have lain within the territory of the Homonadeis.

³⁶ The significance of the use of Latin and the frequency of Roman names in this district is discussed in Section VI below. Since AL cannot be regarded as an abbreviation, I read here the unexampled ALLVCIVS, with which Miss Levick helpfully compares the name from near Karaaǧaç, in the Cillanian Plain, first published by Calder, /Cormack, in M.A.M.A. VIII, no. 367Google Scholar and identified as Thracian by Robert, L. in Noms Indigènes dans l'Asie Mineure gréco-romaine (Paris, 1963), p. 114Google Scholar.

⁵⁴ First of all by Ramsay, in The Historical Geography of Asia Minor, (1890), p. 335 and 419Google Scholar. His subsequent revisions of these views and the opinions of other scholars are conveniently summarised by MissLevick, in Appendix V of Roman Colonies, p. 203–214Google Scholar, who gives as her own view (p. 206): “There is only one area which will satisfy the requirements of all the evidence. That is on the southern shore of Lake Trogitis, the plain to the south of the lake towards Bozkır and the mountain ridge to the south-west in the direction of Cotenna, which is always ascribed to Pamphylia.”

⁵⁵ Two pieces of evidence support this view. (1) The well-known passage of Strabo (XII, p. 569 f), which follows his account of the reduction of the Homonadeis by Quirinius, has generally been taken to describe their homeland:

Most editors have removed καί from the beginning of this sentence. If, however, καί is restored, it becomes clear that Strabo is describing another part of the territory of the Homonadeis, high up in the mountains south of Suǧla Gölü, where the Sülek Alanı corresponds well with his description. The absence of any mention of Trogitis lacus (which is named earlier—p. 568—alongside Karalis) appears to me to rule out the possibility of making this passage a general description of the homeland of the Homonadeis. (2) The area left desolate by Quirinius will have been the densely populated area around the Lake, from which the united people derived the main bulk of their grain supplies. When they were driven from it into the surrounding hills, north and south, Quirinius had merely to wait for starvation and the snows of winter to take their effect. And this was precisely the course of his campaign. When the starving warriors had surrendered, they were resettled outside the district, dispersed to “neigh-bouring cities”. Were they ever allowed to return?

⁵⁶ Jones, A. H. M., Cities of the Eastern Roman Provinces (2nd ed. 1971), p. 137Google Scholar: “… the Sedaseis were thus one among several ‘peoples’ of the ‘tribe’ of the Homonadeis”. Here Jones relies on the term όμοέθνεις, giving it a meaning which I believe to be unjustified. His conclusion, however, may be correct, even if his assumption is not. He continues: “How many peoples there were we do not know but Pliny records that the Homonadeis possessed forty-three forts besides their central stronghold Omana, and each of these forts may have been the centre of a clan or ‘people’”.

Levick, B., Roman Colonies, p. 17Google Scholar: “There can be little doubt that, down to the intervention of Augustus, the social organisation of this area was a fairly homogeneous one of war-like tribes ruled by petty chieftains, with a sprinkling of superficially hellenized cities.”
