		Before moving to a discussion of principles that can help guide decisions as we enter our fourth century, it is useful to characterize in broad terms these fields of study in which Yale has, and has the potential to sustain, special excellence.
		Similarly, because environmental issues are certain to remain among the public's paramount concerns as we enter the 21st century, we expect the contribution of Yale's Institute for Biospheric Studies to assume increasing importance.

		They correspond to #258–303 in the monographic study of Deppert-Lippitz (1984), and combine the standing regardant lion of the subsequent Apollo/lion silver and bronze issues with the ornamental sun design common to the silver twelfth staters of the sixth century.
		In his recent revision of these issues, Philip Kinns identified four subtypes among the specimens studied by Deppert-Lippitz, as shown below; he placed these subtypes in their likely chronological order; and he added a new subtype (here 1a) which he regarded as the earliest of all (Ashton and Kinns, 2003: 5–6).
		For once these types had become standardised there is not a single subsequent instance of a lion with head not turned back, throughout the course of three centuries of coinage” (Ashton and Kinns, 2003: 6).

	April 18: Recovery of fourth century
		Diocletian rose from peasant background to be emperor; got control over a state which had been in civil war for over 50 years; set up a stable form of government which would last several more centuries; and then voluntarily retired.
		Diocletian is a hard emperor to know – both because he kept his private life private, and because the main sources for him are Christian – the Christians had good reason to hate Diocletian.
		Partly thanks to the stability brought by Diocletian and Constantine's reforms, the Roman Empire recovered in the fourth century.

		The first such transformation, extending from the third through the sixth century and affecting economic and political spheres, consisted of a decline in bureaucracy and an increasing class of large landholders (the "Great Houses") that were "sharing public responsibilities in such a fashion that it is very difficult to disentangle public from private functions" (160).
		Thus while papyri and inscriptions do document priestly and temple activities through the fourth century and Bagnall provides a good assessment of the data they do so in steadily and then drastically decreasing amounts.
		Bagnall devotes some discussion and appropriate documentation to festivals but downplays their significance, an unfortunate choice since Plutarch describes several Egyptian festivals as integral to regional self-definition (De is 30-31, 50) and a considerable number of the Roman-era domestic figurines analyzed by Francoise Dunand refer to festivals.

		On the fourth weekday they proceed to Eleona, on the fifth to the Anastasis, on the sixth to Sion, on the Sabbath before the Cross, but on the Lord's Day, that is, on the Octave, (they proceed) to the great church again, that is, to the martyrium.
