Summary

In recent years, different scholars of ancient historyand archaeology have sparked a lively debate aboutthe meaning and function of stationes within the city of Rome and inother places of the Roman world, particularly inharbour towns. Since the term itself – derived fromRoman military and institutional nomenclature –seems to suggest it, the stationes are often seen as officialoutposts of cities from other parts of the RomanEmpire. On the other hand, as Koenraad Verboven haspointed out, the stationes were firmly embedded in themilieux offoreigners, especially from the eastern provinces,who had established themselves permanently inwestern cities, and in the voluntary associationswhich they established. So how then can we describethe particular function of a statio in comparison to other modes oforganization, particularly voluntaryassociations?
