ABSTRACT This article explores the relationship between Roman citizenship and the maintenance of civic life as an essential factor for the continuity of urban centres in the eastern Mediterranean between the imperial period and Late Antiquity. Augustus had already specified that Roman citizens from Cyrenaica had to provide local contributions (λειτουργεῖν) in their cities of origin as Greeks. Marcus Aurelius and Commodus later remarked in the Tabula Banasitana that those enfranchised were not granted a reduction in the taxes paid to the Roman people and fiscus because “the laws of the community remained intact” (salvo iure gentis). I argue that an analogous clause is conceivable in the Constitutio Antoniniana of Caracalla in AD 212. Taking Asia Minor as a case study and focusing on the cities of Termessos and Aphrodisias, I seek to assess the role of these new Roman citizens in the preservation of their places of origin during the third century.

Salvo iure gentium：罗马宪法前后的罗马公民身份和公民生活

摘要 本文探讨了罗马公民身份与公民生活的维持之间的关系，公民生活是帝国时期和古代晚期之间东地中海城市中心连续性的重要因素。奥古斯都已经规定，昔兰尼加的罗马公民必须在他们作为希腊人的原籍城市提供当地贡献（λειτουργεῖν）。Marcus Aurelius 和 Commodus 后来在 Tabula Banasitana 中评论说，那些被授予选举权的人没有被授予减少支付给罗马人民和 fiscus 的税收，因为“社区的法律保持不变”（salvo iure gentis）。我认为在公元 212 年的卡拉卡拉宪法中可以想象一个类似的条款。 以小亚细亚为例，重点研究 Termessos 和 Aphrodisias 的城市，
