The coinage of the two metals date from the middle of second century av. J. C., and had probably place in Pella or to Berrlioea. The catalog description of the coins hit by of Bottieans, that Mr. Bom- peas has trained in the Num. Chronicle of 1874, p. 219—224, gives place has a few rectifications. The second group, „ Bottieans of the Tlirace Epietetus” is to be completely deleted, since both parts, who compose it, are not that of specimens bad preserved and incorrectly described of No. 2 of 3rd group u).

— 69 very good to the explanation, that the group represents the nymph Amalthea , carrying on sound arm Zeus child and the cornucopia 17 ), that of No. 35 — if in effect she is to identify with the other — leads us to recognize rather Dionysus child on the arm from Nysa or of a other goddess nourisher. We however still knows others types women, who wear a child and the horn of abundance on the arm, such that Eirene with Ploutos on bronzes from Athens and Eubosia with Ploutos or Dionysus (see more far away Hierapolis in Phrygia) ; he is therefore quite difficult, without a study special on all the monuments of this kind and on the places of origin, to explain all these types in a way safe and conclusive. As for the child, who tends the arm towards the cluster of grape, there is reason to ask if this is not not the even divinity, who figure on the No. 33 a and who holds the same fruit to the hand.

And it's in effect precisely on the coasts of the Thermaic Gulf, north of Mende and close of Assera, what was located the alone famous town of Chal- cidic, of which the name started with the letters ka, namely Kctfnpu or Kâpu 21 ). It is therefore to she that we could, without hesitate, restore the currency in question, if we had the certainty, that Kcapu and éEy.aipu were spelling forms employees indiscriminately for the same name of city 22 ), like p. ex. the shapes etesta and ieteita, amiioy and iamiioy 23 ) and maybe Kotovgu and 2y.oTovoa (K 0 . 191) and Ki&ug and éSxî&ai (Halkidiki). In a of lists of cities tributaries of Athens appears in besides, among names of Macedonian cities and Chalcidian, that of Kctf.iuy.al, and he is not not impossible, that it is there the name of something locality of Halkidiki.

Although we do not either not still completely okay, of what side of thermal gulf the Dikaea of Eretrians is at place, — close of Methone, or opposite of the Pieria, in the Chalkidiki, this who seems more probable, — we have at least the certainty, that all the coins signed of name of Dikaea and type imprints eretrians, are to classify to the city, of which the inhabitants were of 'Eyeryicov uTior/.oi , and who — understood formerly in Thrace, like all the Chalci- says — was joined by Philippe II to Macedonia.

— 74 — the initial of the legend — of which the shape would be that of a sigma lunar — he must see rather a of hair trained of the head of lion. Unfortunately the legends of two parts se found in a state of conservation if weak, than before the discovery of new specimens he is useless of se lose in guesses to this subject. If he y has in aikaon effect, this would be a form analogous to i + naon, minaaon, tepïïnaon. EMum We knew already by Sestini 38 j, that some coins colonial, who don't have no name workshop, come regularly of Macedonia; and the finds do until this day have confirmed the done. But while Sestini was of opinion, that these bronzes are, without exception, of the colony of Dium, I have acquired conviction, that he must the split into two groups distinct, of which one is to return to Pella. In leaving to Dium all the marked parts of let- very d. d. (decree decurionuiu), Pella will get a series colonial coins little by little near contemporary of others, from a slightly different factory, and is related to singing strong good to several parts inscribed with the name of this colony. The coins, that I proposes to classify in Dium, are the following. 57. Æ24m . — avgvstvs behind the bare head of Augustus to the right. ; in front n.

The duumvir Herennius currencies that I class to Pella, door the first name of Caius; it is therefore a character different from that of Dium. The type of Pallas is the same to the one that we find on of bronzes etfigies of Nero, of Domitian, of Trajan and other emperors. ~8 ) Description nura. vet. p. 101—103.

In presence of coins of Pella, who carry the legends of colonia pella and coloniae pelletensis, and of which one, to the head of Octavian, is cited by Mr. Friedlaender himself (1. c. p. 127), he n : y had however none necessity of do go up age of the piece also high. But if the lesson of the legend of reverse, rectified according to the specimen of Museum British, completes of demonstrate that opinion of Mr. Friedlaender is erroneous, the news conjecture, formulated by Mr. Head and next which the currency would date of time of Balbin and Pupien , me seems again less plausible. Before to meet a copy of which the le- gender will be complete, it will be better abstain from news interpretations 31 ). If the two coins that I will place in head of copper colonial of Dymé , belong in effect to this city and no to Dium, we don't can, for the moment, attribute to this colony of parts more older than those to the effigy of Augustus; because the bronze to the legend principi felix, classified by Mr. Fried- state in Dium (1. c. p. 193 and 196), me seems better suited to Pella. As for to the currency, to the effigy of Augustus, carrying the alleged legend 29 j Mus. Fontana, II, pl. II, 13 and Description di moist med. 1828, p. 42, pl.

The attribution of these small parts in Eion is always uncertain. According to the provenance, or could propose again of give them to Myrkinos , colony of Miletus and more late capital of the Edones, located on the lake Kerkinitis, to the north and few distance from Amphipolis. Among the coins uncertainties of the British Museum, there is a piece that I am surprised not to not see row to the same series. 71 a 12m .

— 79 — On the second the warrior is represented bareheaded , on the thirds wearing the cause , and on the first and the latest helmeted. Also is he enough probable that the stater of the Prokesch collection comes from the workshop of Icknae, all the more more that he watch also of globules and a wheel of the shape of our room. The wheel to two sleepers crossed by a third more strong, is a type who figure no only on of Macedonian coins and Etruscans , like Mr. Bompois seems the believe 38 ), but again, and in its shape the more primitive, on of didrachms of weight euboic, that we offered to give Athens 39 ), on of bronzes of Crannon in Thessaly 4'°), and perhaps on others coins again. He is to presume, that the workshop of Ichnae issued also of fractions of sta- mother ; and in this case you will undoubtedly have to look for them among the anepigraph pieces classified to uncertain Thraco-Macedonian. Maybe the currencies at type of the wheel, featured in the Cat. of Mus. Brit. p. 154, are they among them? Eeetê. 75. 21m .

In describing the Thraco-Macedonian coins, including the types represent a figure virile to taken with a woman, we generally gave the name of Satyr at first of these characters. This name is not not without foundation, when we consult the texts and the works of art Greeks, who con- melt often Satyrs and Silenus — when we bed p. ex. in Pausanias (I,

— 81 — 23, 5), that the Satyrs advanced in age were named Silenus — and when, good than to Silenus , like geniuses of sources and of rivers, come back before everything the symbols of water 40a ) c. to d. the attributes of horse, and to Satyrs, spirits of wood and of mountains, the attributes of the goat , we meet again enough often of Satyrs tailed of horse 41 ). to the era retreated, to which belong our currencies, the confusion, including I come of speak, did not exist without doubt not again and he almost seems certain that ithyphallic characters represent, rather than Satyrs, of the Sile- nes, or of hEavàdcu or Baudot, thus that the Silenus were named in Macedonia é2 ). I deduce that of was, that on the currencies the more ancient of this gender the figure presents the shapes characteristics of Silenus — those of horse, such that I the ai described. — that on of parts one a little less ancient the tail disappears little little by little and that soon the character takes of perfectly human forms, except however the horse's ears. I concluded it then of those of staters of Thasos, who date from the beautiful era of art Greek 4 '3 ), and on which the same character, at bald forehead , to ears and to the tail of horse , is obviously Silenus. However, if he in is thus, he follows that the groups similar archaic coins represent the same divi- nity. I the concluded finally a few other monuments of antiquity and particularly of famous vase by Ergotimos and of Klitias (François vase) 44 j, on which we find registration /irE/voi near of three bearded figures and hairy with the ears , the tail and the feet of horse , of which one holds a Nymph in his arm, little by little almost like on the coins of Thasos. Everything this me so wear to believe, that in the figures of which he is question, he must see of Silenus , such as archaic art had the habit of the repre- feel to VI th and V th century av.

Since the piece is entry in my collection, and, as well as the already did assume its weight of gr. 5.37, she se find be in reality of Colophon: because at place of oaynoinîîn we're there bed in characters partially worn out O H .

So Brandis put it in his list of weight of Macedonia (pp. 533), M. Head (Num.

But the traits of resem- white, that the portrait of Brutus and the head of our currency appear to have in common, can everything also good be accidental that real, and, for my leaves, I prefer see in this one a bad representation of 1Auguste, such that we the meeting frequently on others coins of makes little neat. The type of the plow , in which Mr. Friedlaender find a argument in favor of his attribution to Dium, is also a emblems of the first coins colonial of Pella and of Philippi 56 ), and he could be that of all Roman colony. 56 ) See Bev. num. 1874, pl.

— 97 — By their symbols and the letters isolated from the field, these coins of Urauo- polished don't are not without interest for the investigation of place of issuing a series of tetradrachms types (TAlexander the Great. Because, not only the torch placed under a a, such that she figure on the big one piece from the Museum of Berlin, is found on a long series of these tetradrachms (Millier N°. 32—77), but in besides we knows about these latest who, to side of the torch and Lambda, show of more a star (Müller No. 62- -69), and even, like on our N0 . 136, one star accompanied of the letter x (Müller No. 66), or finally the stone conical or pyramidal surmounted by Vastre (Müller No. 70—72 and 641—645), symbol that we would be tried, if he doesn't only appeared in the field of coins, and did not constantly train the hairstyle of Urania, to take for a mountain carrying to the top the sanctuary symbolized by the goddess. These observations are enough for demonstrate, that one part of tetradrachms of Alexander, that Müller has classified in Amphipolis , to Acrothoon and the uncertain ones, is to restore to Uranopolis. First place these are undoubtedly the No. 62, 66—75 and 611-645, who return to this monetary workshop, and he can be again that several of others parts marked of has and of the torch, and of those with the star alone (Müller N 0 . 151—178) be to put in the news series. Parcontre he will have to be se keep, this me seems, of want give them all to Uranopolis, since the same symbols of the torch and of the star se show also on currencies of Philip II (Müller pl. XXIY, No. 28—48 and 91—102), and that, like we knows, the city of Uranopolis was founded that several years after the death of Alexander, by a of brothers of king Case- zander, Alexarchos 67 ). This is only the pyramid topped of the star who does not se find not on the coins of Philip, and it's precisely this who seems confirm the opinion, that this symbol is the brand of the Uranopolis workshop. Cousinéry, Leake, Desdevises-du-Dézert and Kiepert are unanimous to place Uranopolis close of the isthmus who connects Halkidiki to Aote. The first (Yoy. in the Macedonia II, p. 151 and map) in indicates the site south of channel Xerxes ; — Leake (Travels in Northern Gfreece III, p. 149 and Num. Hell. Eur. 67 ) Leake, Num. Hell. Eur. Gr. p. 109, name the founder Aristarchos, and Mr. Friedlaender , 1. c. p. ‘2 expresses himself of the following way subject of Uranopolis: »The city was newly founded by Alexander, brother of Cassandra ; generally we identifies it with Acroathon, but Leak distinguishes both cities and Uranopolis square more at the west etc.” However the name of founder was good Alexarchos and it's rather to the north, or more correctly to the northwest of Acrothoon (Acroathon is a corrupted form found only in Mela), that modern geographers generally place Uranopolis. 13 LETTERK.

— 98 Gr. p. 109), after have thought first to Sane, the finally place on a height between Acanthos and the channel ; — and Kiepert (Neuer Atlas von Hellas pl. VII) identifies him with Sané. Two times Uranopolis is mentioned by writers ancient, at the same time as Acrothoon, like a locality distinct from this one, and each times the name of Sané not included among the cities of the Act. Stra- good (VII, 331, fr. 35) place the city close of channel of Xerxes, and adds that she had a circumference of 30 stadiums, and Pliny (IV, 17), which lists the hActé cities in the direction from north to south , begins by naming Urano- polished. From everything this results in a way good manifest, that the cities of Acro- thoon and from Uranopolis, one located where the peninsula of the Act se ends, and the other where she takes birth, don't are not to identify, and it is very likely that Uranopolis occupied in effect the location of Sané. It is also close of the isthmus, to Acanthos and in the surroundings, that, according to Cousinéry and Leak, we usually found the currencies in Uranopolis copper. We suitable without pain, that the city of Uranopolis, in a stance geo- graph similar to the one by Cassandrea (founded at the same time), replacing Sane or Acanthos, or all both to the times 68 ), and enjoying necessarily, at less time of Cassandra and during the residence of his singular brother, of privileges individuals, could not fail, through so many advantages, to prosper for some time. It is what seems indicate also its coinage emblems individuals of the city, and the one to types of Alexander, who seems especially to have summer exercised in a way quite abundant. JMoanales thraco-macedo nienn es of uncertain attribution. By giving here the description of a a certain number of anepigraph coins, of which Thraco-Macedonian origin is out of doubt, I I won't discuss everything the classifications proposed to their regard. My goal is not not to increase the number of conjectures, but simply to record some new pieces or lost among the uncertain, in order to complete the lists of catalog of Museum British (pp. 135—155), of report some weight or to form new groups. This will be a modest reinforcement of materials, who will facilitate 68 ) Some time before the foundation from Uranopolis Acanthos had already stopped hitting currency; and Sané never appears have exercised this right. The currencies that Mr. Bompois him has assigned, are or good of parts from Sëlymbria to Thrace, or anepigraphs and uncertain.

Mr. Head (Cat. of Mus. Brit. p.

On the other hand he is me impossible of me familiarize with this other guess (1. c. p. XIX, XXYI—XXIX), that it's in Thermé what have been issued the parts to types of Aegae, of Lété and Ichnae, who are marked of a 0. Because if this sign had the value of Theta and represented the initial of Thermé on the coins attributed to these cities, he s in would follow necessarily, that the other Macedonian currencies of the same time, who have

114 fix towards the year 200 av. J. c. or more late, but nor the name of Adaeos, who is not to identify with none of Macedonians known by the story, nor the types, symbols or monograms don't are of nature to we inquire on the workshop of emission. In treating of coins of Summer I have cited one registration published in the Review archaeological of 1875, in which figure, the year 117 av. J. C., a Adaeos , senator of the city of Summer and son of a other Adaeos. According to all summer appearance enjoyed a existence enough flourishing, and it's maybe, because- that she was located a little to the gap big ones roads, that she did little speak of her, this who don't has it not due prevent to have a history municipal inter- painful. He don't would be not impossible by therefore, that during something time she had summer management by of dynasts, and that an Adaeos, maybe ancestor of the Adaeos of registration, has been tyrant of the city. It is there a simple hypo- thesis, to which I attach even less importance to, that he still remains to be done a other test attribution. The only currency who struck me by its resemblance to some of the parts of Adaeos, is a bronze unpublished of the collection of Mr. Ciancio Pisani to Catania : 191. Æ 21m . — Head of Heracles, bearded and covered with the remains of the lion, to the right. Club. K o t o y z AI£iN This are the types, the shape of letters and the kind of work of the second class coins of Adaeos. Good that the legend, who is net and complete, do know a name of city entirely new Kotoûoci , this bronze, original Macedonian indubitable, seems to me however be of a attribution enough easy. Because, according to all probability, Kotousa is identical with Skotousa, like p. ex. Kapsa with Skapsa 85 ), and one town named Skotousa or Sko- coughed existed in effect on the shore right of Strymon 86 j, no far from Heracleia Sintica. It is to this locality, that I propose to assign the bronze in the name of Kotousa, and this accepted classification, we could propose in Besides, it seems to me wheat, to consider the same city as the place of issue of currencies in 'Adaeos. 85 ) The most geographers place Skotoussa close from the mouth of the Strymon in the lake Kerkinitis, Kiepert further north.

Like the work of K°. 3 comes very close to the one of a few mon- born of the same weight, who have at right the same type, and on the reverse the hollow square to four divisions , he is probable, that our small group represents the mon- swimming who has followed immediately the one to the simple hollow square, and that they belong therefore hold on to time (Y Alexandre I.

The silver and bronze coins, which I have just brought together under Nos. 20—46, were assigned formerly in party to kings of Macedonia Alexander II, III and IV and in party to kings of Hounds Alexander I—II. Mr. Muller was the first to in train a continued monetary separate 3 ) ; but he the divided, without necessity, in two small groups, one at type of the eagle, and the other to the one of lightning; and, swinging between the attributions to Alexander the Large and to Alexander II of Epirus, he proposed to consider these currencies as an emission of king of Epirus during his invasion in Macedonia (approximately 266 av. J. C.). All the clues however concur to do assign these currencies to Alex- andre the Great. Before everything he It must be noted that all these currencies clearly form a group indivisible, are of Macedonian manufacture, and date from the time when he was not not again of use to put on the currency the title royal. By this alone reason already, they don't can belong to Alexander II of Epirus, who, in Besides, doesn't have not summer enough long time possession of the Macedonia, for that we can him assign a broadcast money and of bronze also rich and also varied as this one. Since the stater to the head of Zeus came complete the group, he is not no longer necessary to bring out in a special way the resemblance of some 3 ) Alexander’s numismatics the Great, p. 26—29, No. 15—20.

121 — some of small parts with the currencies of predecessor of Philip II, Per- diccas bed 4 ). Because the No. 19 united in him alone all the elements required for slice the question : the head is absolutely the same character that that of staters money of Philip II and the weight the linked to the monetary system of this king. Gold this head and this system having fallen into disuse in Macedonia with or little after the death of Philip, the piece of Alexander must have summer hit before the introduction of the Euboico-Attic system in Macedonia — what we generally believes having had place before the departure of Alexander for Asia 4a ) — and it therefore belongs to the immediate successor to Philip. From the rarity of this stater, who seems be unique and unpublished, he is permit of conclude that Alexander don't didn't do one broadcast abundant, either that the bad state of his finance the prevented, either immediately after the first hits he have moved to the new stallion, to which belong already small parts money No. 20—35. Their weight of gr. 4.20 — 2.10 — 1.40 and 0.70 indi- what clearly the drachma, the triobole, the diobolus and the mite of the new sy- stem, who therefore do not was more abandoned in Macedonia. Our group would represent thus coinage the more old that we can assign to Alexander, and he is curious to observe that with the exception of type of head of Zeus, which he adopted for the big one piece money Alone, Alexander does not served not of types monetary the more currents of sound father, but resumed the emblems predecessors of Philip, the eagle and the lightning. As for to varieties unpublished from currencies to types ordinary of Alexander, I don't cites only one small number of more interesting: 47. Æ 34m .

The types of the head of Heracles and Yaigle go back from stay at reign of King Archelaus. 4a ) Mr. Six is of opinion that Alexander did not organize the system monetary destined to his new empire, that after have done the conquest. A his advent he had to take out a loan; Philip didn't have left only debts. Droysen, Gesch. d. Hellen. I. 1 . p. 151. 16 LETTERK. VERH. DER KONINKL. AKADEMIA. DEEL XIV.

Chronicle of 1871, p. 117, footnote 63 lla ). Since Mr. Head 12 ) is went again more far away, and the has given to Antigone Doson , nephew of Antigone Gonatas (229—220 av. J. C.), in leaning on the done, that we has recognized already the tetradragons of Antigone Gonatas in the parts to the head of Pan at center of shield Macedonian, that against we doesn't have not again allocated coins to Antigone Doson, and that finally tetradrachms the head of Poseidon suitable good better in Doson by their resemblance to cer- some coins bronze and money from Philippe Y and of the community of Macedonians. A proposal of the part of a authority such as Mr. Head, certainly deserves- lies to be considered with care. Also would I be everything willing to rally to his views, if I didn't have not studied to background the for and the against the question, and found, that in sum the arguments in favor of Antigone Gonatas win by a lot on those, who plead for his nephew. It is what am I going to try to also prove succinctly that possible. And first he there is absolutely nothing that obliged to consider the ornate shield of the head of pan and the figure of Pallas, like the unique types of tetra- drachmas of Gonatas; he seems, at contrary, that there is quite right to be surprised ner that, during a reign of almost forty years old, Gonatas does not have not varied its monetary emblems more often that he don't seems have it done. Because his father, during a reign good more short, had hit four species of tetradrachms, and sound grandson Philippe Y has changed three times of types. In considering the second objection of Mr. Head, we can to be surprised, he is true, of not know the coins of Antigone Doson — except maybe the parts Lacedaemonian that Mr. Bompois him attributes — ; but this astonishment must give in to done more curious again, that we don't know more of tetra- drachmas of Demetrius II (239—229 av. J. C.) However Demetrius reigned a year of more than his cousin Doson, and he was king by descendants , while that his successor took the tiara that quality of guardian of son by Démé- trius. If so the son by Gonatas really doesn't have beaten coin his own name, he no has not place of be surprised at the lack of Antigone tetradrachms Doson.

Because after having examined and compared a large number of copies different, I am convinced of the high probability, if not the certainty of done, that the heads some are just imitations of those of others, or all together of copies of a very characteristic common type teristic executed to eras different. I even have found currencies of manufactures completely foreign to Macedonia, like p. ex. of bronzes of Panticcipée , of a work very flat and ordinary 14 ), (plate D, hi°. 12), on which se leaves recognize the head of Poseidon tetradrachms of Antigone, not only with locks of identical hair, but still with the same unusual crown. Above all these locks of hair, who fall on the front of god, are a particularity who don't se meeting not exclusively on the coins in question : to from the reign of Alexander the Big, we can the see more or less accentuated a little wherever we represented of heads of Poseidon and of Zeus, even in Italy, p. ex. on the beautiful ones gold staters of Ta- annuity and the currencies golden and of bronze of Brettians , of the time of Alexander of Epirus and Pyrrhus. He y has so all appearance that Mr. Head, by forming sound opinion on the date of the tetradrachms of Antigone, has rather taken into account the resemblance of some shapes and of details accidental, that true work artistic and of style monuments, and that in besides he happened left guided mainly by the appearance monogram copies alone, which often have an execution much less wide and skillful that the others varieties more rare 15 ).

The Apollo currencies Seleucids, that Mr. Ilead compares with the one parts of Antigone, is rarely also good engraved, even under both first years- tiochus (280—2-46 av. J.

The bow of ship se ends in one acrostolion, of which the shape does not differs not essentially of the one of most currencies of Demetrius Polior- cete; good that the end in either slightly curved, the acrostolion has kept a character good different of the convex shape, suitable for coin ships Leucadians 16 ) and Romans. A in judge by the style and the manufactures of these parts and by the shape of field of reverse, who is usually a little concave, he must be classified first the tetradrachms of Antigone Gonatas — to types of the shield and of Pallas, — who almost have always a field perfectly flat, are of a do artistic lower — to the exception of those where the figure of Pallas is turned to right, at subject of which I will do later a reservation — and present of types of which Philippe Y continued to se serve. The drachma A 0 . 68, of which the types reunite the head of the first and the figure of Pallas of the second of the two species of tetradrachms, represents without doubt the transition from Tune to the other of these emissions. In examining the signs in the field of parts some of Antigone Gonatas and of those that I propose of return it to him, we will find most often on the latest the monogram |§T, joint sometimes to others letters or mono- grams, such that t i and |~p , that we meeting also on parts to type of Pallas.

Strabo, 436). The symbol of the trident alongside /?

128 — So it's again, when we considers them side of their signs and emblems accessories, that tetradrachms types of Poseidon and Apollo return to Antigone Gonatas. From even that the Nike guy standing on the bow, of first coins of Demetrius Poliorcetes, has summer explained by a event history, the vic- tory naval of Salami in 30G av. J. c. 18 ), so Mr. Head believed find the explanation of the Apollo sitting on the bow in the happy shipping naval, that Antigone Doson undertaken in 228 av. J. c. against Caria. 11 is however just as or maybe more easy, to find an opportunity that could make choose this guy by Antigone Gonatas. This occasion se presented after the naval victory that Gonatas won on the Egyptian fleet near the island of Cos, probably in the spring of the year 265 av. J. c. 19 ). Good that the stories of this battle and the story of this era be almost completely lost, the sequels of the victory prove to the obvious, that this was a exploit decisive and of the more high importance for Antigone. Everything close of cos, in face of the island, was located Apollo's hieron Tgiômos, or se were celebrating the games in honor (YApollo and of Poseidon, both di- vinities represented on our tetradrachms. It is there without doubt, that the vain- queur has dedicated his trireme; and it's there also, following a inscription found close of yesterday, that existed more late a other sanctuary, very rich and very- revered of Cnidians, that of hero Antigone, son of Epigone (Demetrius) 20 ). He is obvious, that this sanctuary, dedicated to one deadly, owed his origin to something exploit extraordinary and resounding, who had made Antigone the good- maker of the city of Cnidus and of sound hieron. And this done was undoubtedly the victory of Cos. So there is everything place of believe, that monetary types combined of Apollo, of the trireme and of Poseidon were chosen by Antigone in order to remind this victory 31 ), and then the tetradrachms No. 64—67 have summer frap- pes since year 265 av.

— 129 — Until this era, Antigone Gonatas had hardly been able to enjoy rest of his power; because since the year 277, he had lost, twice, Macedonia against the kings of Molosses. Also is he possible that, harassed without stop, An- tigone doesn't have not done hit money to his name before the year 265, and thus the parts to the head of Poseidon would represent his first broadcast of tetra- drachmas. Like we the meeting more rarely that the parts at shield, he go away would follow that he don't has not been hit for a long time. I don't con- born that six varieties , while the other species I have noted three varieties with the Pallas to right, and new at ten with the goddess turned left. In the re- leaving all proportionally on the years between 265 and 239 av. J. C., we would get for some a period of eight to ten, and for the others a second of sixteen to eighteen years, this who can strong good approach of the truth. However he would be again possible, that the rare tetradrachms, who my- trent Pallas tour to right (E 0 . 69) and who are of a other and better style that the parts with the same figure on the left, had summer hit shortly after the battle of Lysimachia (277 av. J. C.), and that Antigone would have resumed these elders types, with a light modification, after to have given up again the types reminding the victory of Cos. Everything good considered, and especially in look currencies of board D, I have the conviction that the tetradrachms E ü . 64—67 belong to Antigone Go- natas, and no to Antigone Doson. 69. Æ 31m .

We was exhausted in conjectures about the name and the explanation of the object, so . that he in is came from a nomenclature very rich and varied: cornucopia, column, quiver, torch, trumpet or salpinx, harp, lithuus, stick, govern- nail, rudder bar, plow, lamp hanging from a candelabra etc.! None known forms of these objects does not, however, completely correspond to the one of our instrument, and of my side I don't could offer an explanation cow and unmistakable. This that he y has of certain, it's that the instrument who figure on the coins sometimes as a symbol, sometimes as an emblem, is identical with the attribute, on which rely sometimes Pallas, Astarte and Tyche, and who replaces, in the hands of two latest goddesses, the rudder, aphlaston or the trident. Like these attributes are all borrowed from the navy , we can conclude that the object in question represents a symbol of the same category, he se could so well, that hune of explanations that we must to Mr. Gardner, a bar of rudder , approached the more of the truth. In none case, this me seems, don't can we think of a plow or to a trumpet , as well as several archaeolo- gues have it thought while explaining the attribute of the goddess of the Hildesheim peg. A salpinx is especially very improbable because of the shape impossible to this who should to be the mouthpiece of the instrument. 17 1;
