- Dr. D. Boteva, Assistant Professor at the University of Sofia,
offers a thorough study of all available sources on the development of Lower Moesia and Thrace in the Roman Imperial system under the Early Severi.
- The authors argues a new research method, based on a historical approach towards the provincial coinage combined with the evidence of the synchronous epigraphic material and the ancient authors.
- This enables her to clarify the chronology of the legati Augusti and to reconstruct some unknown features of the Imperial development:
Trans-Danubian (Getic?) invasions in Lower Moesia at the end of the 2nd/beginning of the 3rd c. AD and proclamations of co-rulers provoked by these invasions -
a practice, which found its final stage of development about a century later with the establishment of the Tetrarchy.
