Abstract
Eski Yunan-Roma dünyasının belki de en önemli dini ve kültürel aktivitesi olan agonistik festivaller düzenlenmeye başladığı ilk günden sona erdiği tarihe kadar popülaritesini korumuş ve Grek-Roma kültür tarihine damga vurmuş bir fenomendir. Hellenistik Dönem öncesinde Yunanlar tarafından başlatılan koloni hareketleri, bir yandan Küçük Asya’da yeni Yunan aKüçük Asya kentlerinde yayılmasını sağlamıştır. Büyük İskender’in Asya seferiyle beraber geniş coğrafyalara yayılan Hellen kültürü Anadolu’da giderek kök salmıştır. Bu süreci takiben, önce Yunan halkının yoğunlukta olduğu kentlerde, ardından neredeyse tüm Küçük Asya kentlerinde devrin en önemli dini, kültürel ve sosyal aktivitesi olan agonistik festivaller düzenlemeye başlamıştır. Küçük Asya’nın diğer bölge ve kentlerine nazaran daha geç dönemlerde agonistik festival organize etmeye başlayan Pisidia kentleri, Roma İmparatorluk Çağı’na gelindiğinde potansiyelini ortaya koyarak bu konuda diğer bölge kentleri ile yarışır hale gelmiştir. Bu çalışma kapsamında bölgenin en önemli kentlerinden biri olan Selge’de düzenlenmiş olan agonistik festivaller ele alınmıştır.

Following this process, agonistic festivals, which were the most important religious city, the cultural and social activity of the era, began to organize firstly in the cities where compose of most of the Greek people, then in almost all cities of the Asia minor. Compared to other parts of Asia, Pisidian cities start to organize agonistic festival in the later periods and when reached to the Roman Imperial Period, it becomes competing with the rest of the city by revealing its potential in this regard. In the scope of this study, the agonistic festivals organized in Selge, one of the most important cities of the region, are examined.
