Polyonymy in the Gallo-Roman society of the Haut-Empire

Abstract

In Gallo-Roman society the use of polyonymy was first and foremost the first century, and less than the second century, the motives of family strategy in some of the leading circles, most often members of the two Roman orders of nobility, more rarely having not exceeded municipal honours. However, in the second and especially in the third century, other reasons seem to have led to its adoption in much smaller circles. That use cannot therefore be regarded as a sign of belonging to one of the nobile orders of the Empire or even as a criterion for belonging to the upper classes of Welsh Roman society. Burnand Yves.
