| | BITHYNIA AND PONTUS |
 | | This was a way of finding a home within Greco-Roman society despite the Christians’ strange monotheism (strange from the perspective of most Greeks and Romans). | | | 1 Peter is not the only evidence we have for Christian groups and their relations with others in the cities of Bithynia and Pontus. | | | The regions of Bithynia and Pontus are perhaps best known to readers of the New Testament from 1 Peter, a letter written to the Christian “exiles” in the provinces of Asia Minor. |

| | Since the use of violence was only allowed in times of crisis, a governor usually had to convince the members of the local elite that his policy was not only in the interest of Rome, but also in their own interest. | | | As we have already seen, five governors of Bithynia had been accused by provincials. | | | This is the fifth part of an article; the first part can be found here. |

| | Antinous of Bithynia |
| | Antinous was born in Claudiopolis, a city in the Roman province of Bithynia, in the year 111 A.D. or the thirteenth year of the reign of Trajan (98-117 A.D.) He was of humble parentage, his father perhaps held a position of prestige in the city. | | | There can be no doubt that these vestiges in marble that have survived the wars of men, and the storms of the Earth are the true face of Antinous from Bithynia. | | | What sets his school of sculpture apart from all the carvings of time is that when first seen no one cares to know the identity of the artist, or is distracted by the imperfections, or even considers the circumstance of it's creation, but only sees the model. |
