Her son was, however, a freedman with a name identical to that of his mother's husband, a decurio. This son was appointed as augustalis and apollinaris. As is made clear in the first and second part of the paper, this means that the homonymous male characters mentioned in this inscription (AE 2008, 535) were connected both on a local institutional and a familial level--as decurio and augustalis (and apollinaris) and as adoptive father and adoptive son respectively. The third part investigates how these familial and institutional connections may have interacted. The sociological concept of 'transgenerational mobility' provides a link between the family and the city. This inscription offers exceptional insight into the complexity of social situations, and shows how family strategies influence the workings of local institutions. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Mnemosyne is the property of Brill Academic Publishers and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
