Vespasian and his sons were forced to create their own style of politics, and, in search of auctoritas and maiestas, they could not neglect the realm of religion. We should bear in mind that in the Roman world, religion was an integral and indispensable component of social and political life. For these reasons, these representatives of the Roman Imperial Dynasty, just like their predecessors and successors, successfully used different forms of activity surpassing the narrow interpretation of the domain of religio, including massive building programmes, monetary policy or even poetry, to express devotion and respect for mores maiorum as well as to confirm the legality of their power by presenting the divine approval of their political strength. It seems legitimate to acknowledge that the Flavian era did not bring revolutionary changes in traditional religion. This clearly shows that the new dynasty was perfectly aware that one of the aspects of a well-functioning Rome was preservation of the ancestors’ customs and a belief in divine protection which could ensure safety, strength and belief in the unity of the Empire.

From the large Germanic settlement of Kostolište, about 40 km north of Carnuntum, comes Germanic und Roman pottery, terra sigillata, coins, brooches, fragments of bronze vessels and small finds. It comes from here also the part of a Roman jug with foot handle, representing a military sandal (caliga). The find is the first evidence of this type north of the middle Danube. Two production centres are postulated for the jugs with foot handle between Gallia Belgica and Germania inferior as well as in Pannonia during the 2 nd and the first half of the 3 rd century AD. The decorative attaches of the jugs show either bare or shoed feet, whose symbolic content and possible interpretations are discussed. In the article is presented also an Aureus from Vespasianus for Titus, only the third documented aureus from the Záhorie region and roman and Germanic bronze brooches from the 1.–3. centuries AD.

The article comprises theological deliberations on the persons referredto by name in 2 Timothy 4:9-15. These persons can be divided into twogroups. The first group consists of those who remained with the ApostlePaul, had a positive attitude towards him, or completed missions appointedby Paul during his imprisonment. They are as follows: Crescens (?), Titus,Luke, Mark, Tychicus and Carpus. The second group comprises his closestcollaborators who, for unknown reasons, abandoned Paul, or became (orhad been from the first meeting) his fierce opponents. Demas and Alexanderbelong to this group.If we assume that the Second Epistle to Timothy was written by Paul,each of those individuals referred to in the analysed passage occupied, tosome extent, the mind of the imprisoned Apostle. If we assume that 2 Timothy is a pseudepigraph, we obtain a list of people who, according to theauthor of the text, had clear influence on the Apostle of the Nations duringhis final stage of life. In the times of the early Church, all name-basedreferences to specific people (who were often well regarded] in Christiancommunities), might have constituted obscure references to current situationsin the respective communities of the followers of Jesus Christ.
