Who said of Greece , " Graecia capta ferum victorem cepit " ?
Roman Greece is the period of Greek history ( of Greece proper ; as opposed to the other centers of Hellenism in the Roman world ) following the Roman victory over the Corinthians at the Battle of Corinth in 146 BC until the reestablishment of the city of Byzantium and the naming of the city by the Emperor Constantine as the capital of the Roman Empire ( as Nova Roma , later Constantinople ) in 330 AD .
