Περίληψη:	The writer offers a comprehensive analysis of Corinth’s economic role as a major Mediterranean commercial hub but also how being a centre of Roman rule infuenced the relationship to other close poleis like Argos or Athens – a relationship that was not without tension and confict. Zoumbaki revisits these complex connections. She demonstrates how Corinth played multiple roles that go beyond the fact that Corinth was most probably the capital of the Roman province Achaia and a centre of Roman administration. Following Zoumbaki, as an internationalcity Corinth always seems to have been open to new trends, philosophical, intellectual and reli-gious concepts that the city permanently was confronted with by the many people that passed thecity or stayed for doing business. As a real cultural melting pot it not only adopted elements of Roman lifestyle but also kept many elements of its grand Hellenic heritage as it is described in Apuleis’ Golden Ass for the late 2nd century AD.
