This paper presents some data and research lines concerning the legal aspects of the 'canabae legionis', the civilian settlements which were often found near military garrisons: albeit numerous studies have been conducted on this particular issue, it is still surrounded by much uncertainty. The etymology of the term 'canabae' will also be explored, and its presence in legal, literary, and epigraphic sources.

The database Cretan Institutional Inscriptions was created as part of the PhD research project in Ancient Heritage Studies Kretikai Politeiai: Cretan Institutions from VII to I century BC, carried out at the University of Venice Ca' Foscari by Irene Vagionakis from 2016 to 2019, under the supervision of Claudia Antonetti and Gabriel Bodard. The research project aimed at collecting the epigraphic sources related to the institutional elements of the many political entities of Crete, with a view to highlighting the specificity of each context in the period between the rise of the poleis and the Roman conquest of the island. The main component of the database consists of the epigraphic collection of the 600 inscriptions constituting the core of the documentary base of the study, for each of which an XML edition compliant with the TEI EpiDoc international standard was created. Each EpiDoc edition includes a descriptive and a bibliographic lemma, the text of the inscription, a selective apparatus criticus and a commentary focused on the institutional data offered by the document. In addition to the epigraphic collection, the database includes a collection of the main related literary sources, a catalogue of the attested Cretan institutions (assemblies, boards, officials, associations, civic subdivisions, social statuses, age classes, months, festivities and other celebrations, institutional practices, institutional instruments, public spaces) and a catalogue of the political entities of Crete (poleis, koina, dependent communities, extra-urban sanctuaries, hegemonic alliances).

Englische Ausgabe mit griechischen Abstracts / English edition with Greek abstracts Taking Action rückt die nachhaltige Gestaltung urbaner Transformation und die Vorbereitung dicht strukturierter Stadträume auf zukünftige Herausforderungen in den Fokus. Wie lassen sich Klimawandel und räumliche Disparitäten unter Krisenbedingungen und angesichts begrenzter räumlicher und sonstiger Ressourcen bewältigen? Wie können ehrgeizige und umfassende Ziele mit der Realität lokaler Bedingungen und Alltagsräumen in Einklang gebracht werden? Und wie kann Wissen in Handeln umgesetzt werden? Während derzeit überall in Europa die grundlegenden räumlichen Beziehungen in Städten neu verhandelt werden, konzentrieren sich in Athen einige der dringlichsten urbanen Probleme und machen die Stadt zu einem einzigartigen Experimentierfeld. Die Autor*innen nähern sich diesen multidimensionalen Fragen aus verschiedenen Perspektiven an, um mögliche Interventionsräume zu identifizieren, neue Transformationsmodelle vorzuschlagen und die Potenziale der urbanen Landschaften für einen positiven Wandel zu aktivieren
