ΠΕΡΙΛΗΨΗ
The riot of the citizens of Antioch in Syria Coele in February 387 is also known as the ‘Riot of the Statues’. It was the expression of people's opposition to the economic policy of Theodosius I. The riot raged for half a day and its suppression was marked firstly by the harsh punishment of a great number of citizens and then by the demonstration of the Christian magnanimity of the emperor. |
