COINS FRONM

LYCIA AND PAMPHYLIA.

[PLATE
I.]
THE following list of coins bought on our journey may be of interest as
showing what the currency of the districts must have been. Only Greek
coins are here treated; of Roman coins it was noticed that denarii rarely
occur earlier than Trajan, after whom they become increasingly common,
while the copper hardly appears till the second quarter of the third
century.'
Where the coin has already been described in any of the British Museum
Catalogues, the Inventaire de la Collection Waddington, Imhoof-Blumer's
Monnaies grecques, Griechische Miinzen, Kleinasiatische Miinzen, or Zur
griechischen nd r6mischen Mirnzkunde references are given to those
works.2 Where the coin is a minor variety of one described in any of
these works, the reference is preceded by ' as' and followed by the point
of difference. When the coin seems to be new or to call for fuller treat-
ment the number is printed in heavy type and a description given at the
end. The provenance of each piece is added in brackets, modern nalnes
(except such as Makri, Adalia, Elmaly) being as far as possible avoided;
for example if a coin was obtained within two or three miles of a classical
site the name of the site is given.
But it must be borne in mind that a coin is often bought some way
from the place where it was found. There are three classes from whom
coins were obtained, (a) money changers and dealers in the larger towns,
(/8) people moving up and down the main roads, (ey) the peasants them-
selves. As a rule class (,8) buys from (ry) and (a) from both, so that the
information is proportionately inexact. In the districts traversed there
were three main roads, Adalia-Istanoz-Elmaly, Phineka-Elmaly and Makri-
Elmaly, and the provenance of coins bought upon them is marked
accordingly.3

1 At Kalamaki we came across what looked references have been given to Babelon's Traitd
like the remains of a hoard of Roman JE of des Monnaies and to Macdonald's Catalogue of
Gordian III., Tranquillina, Maximinus; pos- the Hunterian Collection(Hunter).

16 This reverse type, a sandalled foot, seems which lay a few miles from Antiphellus, though
otherwise quite unknown at the Pisidian Isinda, as a rule the imperial coinage of Lycia is con-
and the provenance of this specimen suggests fined to the reigni of Gordian III. No other
that it may really belong to the Lycian Isinda coins are known of this city.

The following coins I have thought worthy of fuller description, as they


have not yet found their way into any of the standard works cited above.
The measurements are in inches.

The absence of CEB or of a magistrate's name (though neither of
these is decisive) and the fabric would place this coin among those
attributed to Hadrianopolis Thraciae. But the provenance suggests
that it, with others of the same class (e.g. B.M.C. 4 with the character-
istic Asiatic type of Apollo shooting), may really belong to the other
Hadrianopolis in Phrygia.

42 E. S. G. ROBINSON
coin cannot be determined. The class to which B.M.C. 203 belongs is
supposed to have been struck for Rhodian possessions on the mainland
and the countermark would give some ground for assigning it more
definitely to -Lycia beneath Rhodian rule (188-168 B.c.) This is
confirmed by the fact that the coin bears the name IAXfN which is
characteristically Lycian. No. 3419 bears the chimaera as its reverse
type;. that the obverse type shows a facing head and that the ethnic is
AYKIflN without mention of the later monetary districts would put it
at the beginning of the series, a date which the style confirms, and it
may be suggested that these copper coins with the countermarked
Rhodian silver formed the earliest currency of Lycia after the liberation
of the country in B.C.168.
35. Obv. Head of Artemis (?) facing, over r. shoulder bow and quiver. Rev.
AYKI lN Apollo standing to front holding bow (?) in 1. E
"4.
This coin belongs to the series 1-4 on p. 38 of B.M.C. Lycia, but
the reverse type is new. The obverse seems to be the same as that of
B.M.C. ib. No. 1, there described as an Apollo. The facing head type
and the unqualified ethnic would put this series in line with Nos. 33, 34
above.
40. Ap. .. Obv. Head of Apollo r. diademed, hair in formal curls. Rev.
AYKIflN. Bust of Artemis r. with quiver at shoulder to 1. and r.

As both Apollonia and Aperlae are equally near to the place where
the coin was found no attribution can be based-on provenance, but
Aperlae is to be preferred as being the more important town.

Dias-Cragus 1 should be assigned to Cragus. There are no other coins
of Dias, and the town itself is only known to us from a reference in
Stephanus (s.v.), which does not specify even whether it lay in the

This specimen has been already published by Imhoof, Revue
Suisse, 1913, p. 115, No. 302. From his coin the words IIVIREXDD
may be made out in the exergue of the reverse and what is probably
A in front of the F. Of the missing letters of the obverse, the first
seems to have been square (e.g. B, D, E or L), while the third was
possibly an N. Rutilus is otherwise unknown. Imhoof suggests
Sinope, Apamea, or Parium as the mint, but though the piece certainly
belongs to Asia Minor, the provenance of this specimen and the humped
bull of the reverse suggest the South-West. The humped bull is
never found in Europe, and not universally distributed in Asia Minor,2
occurring rarely in the North,"2but generally in Caria, Lycia, Pisidia
and Lycaonia.30 Possibly the coin is to be attributed to one of the
Pisidian colonies.
