Sažetak

The article deals with the circumstances of the Roman settlements in
Philippi in the first century BC and their consequences for this town in
the Roman province of Macedonia in the first century AD. The author
shows that there were actually only two Roman settlements (42 BC and 30-27 BC). The historical circumstances of settlements as well as social composition of the settlers show that the settlements were not intended as deliberate romanization of a part of the Roman province of Macedonia, but rather pragmatic remedies for current political problems. In spite of this, by the first half of the first century AD, the time covered by Acts and Paul’s letter, Philippi retained a strong Roman flavor because of its status of Roman colony, legislation, Latin as the language of administration, Roman religions, the location on the crucial Egnatian road, and the continuing recruitment in the Roman army. Also, the Roman settlers belonged to the higher strata of society and exercised strong influence on the Philippian culture.
