		It is instructive as to Luke's conception of Paul's method, and about Luke's own ideas on the development of the Christian Church, that he should here so pointedly define the Roman part of Lycaonia as the region to which Paul went and where he continued preaching.

		Precisely the same distinction exists between Lycaonia Galatica and Lycaonia Antiochiana (C.I.L., V., 8660).
		There are cases in which the Roman official title of a province was a compound name, e.g., Bithynia Pontus, Lycia Pamphylia, the three Eparchiae, Cilicia, Lycaonia, Isauria.
		It is, however, not improbable that a distinction in constitution between Lycaonia and Galatia proper began in the Flavian period, and culminated in their separation between 137 and 161 AD., when Lycaonia became one of the three southern Eparchiae under a single governor.
