Achaia, Roman Province South of Macedonia and Epirus
Achaea[1] or Achaia,[2][3] sometimes transliterated from Greek as Akhaïa (Greek: Î‘ÃÂ‡Î±ÎÂÎ± Achaïa, [axaËˆia]), was a province of the Roman Empire, consisting of the Peloponnese, eastern Central Greece, and parts of Thessaly. In the north, it bordered on the provinces of Epirus vetus and Macedonia. The region was annexed by the Roman Republic in 146 BC following the sack of Corinth by the Roman general Lucius Mummius, who was awarded the cognomen "Achaicus" ("conqueror of Achaea"). It became part of the Roman province of Macedonia, which included the whole of mainland Greece. Acts 18:12-28 before Paul's return to Antioch, Syria;
