Roman emperor Hadrian (reigned 117–138) is said to have considered a division of the overly large province of Syria in 123–124 AD, but it was not until shortly after Шаблон:Circa that Septimius Severus (r. 193–211) actually undertook this, dividing the province into Syria Coele in the north and Phoenice in the south.Шаблон:Sfn The province was much larger than the area traditionally called Phoenicia: for example, cities like EmesaШаблон:Efn and PalmyraШаблон:Efn and the base of the Legio III GallicaШаблон:Efn in RaphanaeaШаблон:Efn were now subject to governor in Tyre. Veterans of this military unit were settled in Tyre, which also received the rank of colonia.[1]
War of Succession
After the death of the 2nd century Roman emperor Commodus, a civil war erupted, in which Berytus, and Sidon supported Pescennius Niger. While the city of Tyre supported Septimius Severus, which led Niger to send MauriШаблон:Efn javelin men and archers to sack the city.[2] However, Niger lost the civil war, and Septimius Severus decided to show his gratitude for Tyre's support by making it the capital of Phoenice.
