Aemilian, July or August - October 253 A.D., Antiocheia, Pisidia
|Aemilian|, |Aemilian,| |July| |or| |August| |-| |October| |253| |A.D.,| |Antiocheia,| |Pisidia|, Aemilian only ruled for 88 days!

Pisidia's geographic and strategic position made it difficult to maintain peace. To strengthen control, Rome colonized the area with military veterans, who were attracted to the area by the fertile soil. An important Roman colony, Antiocheia was, like Rome, divided into seven quarters called "vici" on seven hills. Paul visited Antiochia on his missionary journeys (Acts 13:14, 14:24). The formal language was Latin until the end of the 3rd century A.D.
