The votive reliefs of Asclepius and Hygieia with the seated one or a couple of gods sitting and feasting, about which I previously spoken in detail (Ztschr. £ Nam.

Now I can add a third coin, underneath Eaiser Hadrian minted in Pergamum, adding:

One can easily see from Vaillanf's description that knew the so-called “Feast of the Dead”. The figures are, analogous to that Coin of Bizya, the ordinary ones, on countless Eaiser Coins from Pergamum depicted the main gods of this city: Asclepius and Hygieia.*)

Tsar chronology of the coinage of Augastas. At the beginning of this year (1881) was near Metz made a fairly important find of Roman denarii, who unfortunately didn't stay together; a large part, 258 pieces, The gentlemen “Zschiesche & Bait” bought it in Leipzig and gave it a list in the price catalog from April 1881. By the kindness of Mr. Carl Zschieche and Mr. Painter A. ■ Liebsch in Leipzig') it was possible for me to do all of these 258 pieces were still available - by far the largest part this number - to be able to examine it in detail. The find contained two very easily distinguishable denarii types of denarii: those that are already in the trade had been circulated and those that were fresh from the mint came, showed the most magnificent condition and full shine and could never have been in traffic^ but directly the coin went into the ground. Regarding the first type, which is already more or less common in traffic niger worn^ belonged to all republican denarii of the Finds, almost only very common pieces, as well as some denarii Caesar, some of Antonius, and a number of coins of Augustus, e.g. B. the denarius with Augustus' and Antonius' heads by Quaestor Barbatius (not well preserved), and also the similar one Denarius from Quaestor Gellius (very mediocre).

Historically follow-up rations were made from these denarii that were in the cours don't pull.
But the more strange is the second one, which is much larger in number. Smaller part (probably around 50 pieces) of the find: stamp- fresh denarii of Augustus.
The condition of these pieces was such that I have rarely seen them found in ancient coins, bright uncirculated and I haven't seen the slightest trace of wear and tear I have about 30 pieces of this grade; it is sufficient to writing of the back pages:

1) When it comes to the evidence, I only see what I (saw) since everything here depends on the preservation of the pieces. The gentlemen's catalogue Zscbiescbe <& bait ^takes a few more pieces, which are most likely belonged to the same inheritance category, e.g. B. Coh. 262, SIGNIS RECEPTIS with standing Mars and Coh. 48, CAESAR AVGVSTVS, two laurel branches.

This denarius was struck in 738, when Augastus Rome left to go to Gaul; M, Lollliis was on Rhine defeated by the Germaoes, GallieoltäMk threatened and Augnstcff hurried, probably still in the erM summer) of the year 738, in the province Ii A^Dstijf' Departure J^^nte the Temple of Juv that Gembdc für du Kaisers gtSJPiche Rückk e^X^S vneQ t^£ inavödov tiw Avy^varnv l Vota celebrate numerous coins, namely Mescinius Rufus C738) with the inscriptions: VOTA SALute ET.REDitu I .

The mint of this rare denarius, 738, 8t, is therefore established, even if perhaps the vota pro salute Augusti and die Vota pro reditu Augosti actually two different things were; I would like to remind this almost of the transcription of the denarius Close Mescinius:
I. O. M. S. P. Q_^R . V. S. PR. Salute IMP. CAE. QVOD. PER . EVm Res Publica IN AMPliore ATQje TR AN quilliore Statu Est. This inscription actually has nothing to do with his departure Gaul and the happy return to Thom to be prayed for; but there are other denarii of Mescinius or without his name who call the vota pro salute et reditu together, both are possible in any case immediately together in terms of time.
The pieces listed under No. 2 - 3 with the Mars Dltor
176 A. Ton StJlet:
refer to the return of Crassus to the Parthian lost standards (734) and are according to general Acceptance in the year 734 or, as was the case with the silver coin from weight of the cistophore seemed to prove:

(Eckhel VI, 100. Pinder Cistophores 581.) in 735/36, when Augustus became the tribunicia for the fifth time potestas had^ coined. —
Refers to the recovery of the Parthian military field There is also the well-known frequent coin number 4 with the field symbol and the round shield: SiGNIS RECEPTlS Clypeus Virtutis etc.; one takes the year 734 / (recovery of the Signa) or the following, 735, as the year of minting.
The following two denarii numbers 5 and 6 also show the clypeus virtutis, either as the sole type: S . P. Q_. R CL. V, or wreathed by Victoria. The discovery begins here von Metz to give a historical pointer: Mommsen (rep gestae Divi Augusti p. 103 f.) takes Borghesi's procedure on, these common denarii with the shield and the rarer ones 727 "vel paullo post" were struck with a shield and Victoria; if he found a larger number of these denarii is fresh with the related pieces, which are exactly the same Clypeus Virtutis surrounded by the SIGNIS RECEPTlS show then the assumption is obvious here: the imprints:
1.CL. V etc.; the shield alone,
2.CL. V etc. ; the shield of Victoria wreathed,
3. CL.V etc.; the shield surrounded by the SIGNIS RECEPTlS give
are all in celebration of an event, the signa recepta and one dedicated to the emperor as a result of this event

clypeus virtutis (or as it was previously explained: cL votivus), not two different such dypei, beaten, so certainly not minted in 727 or soon after, but in 734 at the earliest.
No. 7 and 8, Quadriga, on which a legion eagle and the Chariot of the same Qaadriga, also with the legion eagle, in Temple of Mars Ultor standing also refers to the sigpa recepta of the year 734. (Cassiodorus says: Gaesari ex pro-
vincüs redeunti (735) currus decretus est, quo ascendere
noluit). «
. No. 9 carries the comet of DIVVS ILVIVS, cid certain The year of minting for these coins has probably not yet been found.
No. 10 “whether cives servatos^ in the wreath refers to the well-known Dedi- cation of the wreath (and laurel branches), at Augustus' house attached, him voifg . . . nolefilovs vixui>ti xai tovg noXitag oii- tflvxi consecrated (Dio LIII, 16). — Borghesi guessed but already^ that these have been on coins since 734 or 735 so frequent mention of the cives seryati as well as the wreath a repeat fetching that dedication of a wreath to Augustus means caused by the salvation of the citizens from Parthian doom captivity, i.e. “whether cives servatos^, on the occasion of the “signa recepta''. Cassiodorus says: Augusto currus cum Corona aurea decretus est (year 735). Mommsen denies this relationship However, coins of the triumvir Caninius GaUus, who on his other coins celebrate the signa recepta, i.e. after 734 must have shaped the usual representation of the 727 dedicated laurel branches and the wreath on the door House of Augustus (Coh. Caninia, plate X, no. 4, from Morell); Also let the term ^cives servati*' mean from the Citizens freed from captivity are not correct, there must be “cives re- cepti or, as the well-known coins also have it (Eckhel VI 101) “cives recuperati^ are called.
But quite apart from that here in the Metz find gathering of freshly minted denarii with OB CIVES SERVATOS in larger numbers with an also larger one
178 A. Ton Saltet:
Number of commemorative coins of the “signa recepta^ seem other coins to be added, that the wreath and the inscription OB CIVeS SERVATOS allerdixigs with d^ "signis receptis" and which - as explained above - probably with this one Opportunity dedicated Clypeus Virtutis coincides; the denarius Coh. 213:
CAESAR AVGVSTVS- head r.
Rf, OB CIVES SERVATOS wreath, inside the round shield with S.P.Q^R.CL.V was ebanfftlls in the Metzer find (1 copy, which I unfortunately haven't seen). So it seems to me that the “cives”^servati^ here but probably the Kifieg prisoners extradited by the Parthem to ^in and the wreath can, as Borghesi thought, be that of Gassio- Dor mentioned, dedicated to the emperor on this occasion (735). “Corona aurea^ be.
No. 1 1 finally with the charging bull and IMP. X sets one in the years 741 or 742; Augustus' Tenth Acclamation to the Emperor falls, according to the usual assumption, during this time.
So we have for the stamped denarii of Metz Finds which I have seen, the following certain or assumed Data:

So these many copies of the eleven different stamps Fresh varieties of the find covered the period from 727 or 734/735 to 741/742.
But if we use the remaining denarii of Augnstus in Find what I had in my hands and di6 There were absolutely unmistakable traces of traffic and wear and tear - including a piece with the title Augustus (and Capricorn), i.e. 727 or later, - the assumption arises, the ones described Freshly minted coins could not possibly be seven or even fourteen years apart; their appearance is more pronounced and immediately buried pieces.
Of course, there is no proof from the degree of preservation alone enough, but if, as here, under around 60 coins of the Au- gustus more or less rubbed off, but also at least about 30 pieces (probably far more) completely shiny, If you find something fresh and untouched, we are not only justified, but forced to examine carefully whether the current assumption according to which those freshly minted coins 7 or even 14 years apart in time be, is really correct.
What Mommsen says about the ones that are out of preservation mixer denarii resulting results (Ztschr. f. Numismatik IL p. 36): “from the good preservation of a single copy
Drawing conclusions is highly questionable where one

Let's look at the current dates of the eleven mentioned

180 A. TOQ Saflet:
Year 738 Stattfisuid; At the beginning of the summer of that year Aogastos left to Gaul, immediately afterwards ^ after Dio's news there was a fire of the Temple of Juventus, the vota pro re- ditu Augusti, or as they appear on the coins of Mescinius Rufus v.J. 7380 are called: vota pro salute et reditu Augusti.
The date 738 stands for the denarius with “Jovi vota suscepta^ etc. firmly
Almost exactly the same inscriptions, which refer to this Vota des The year 738 refers, as has often been mentioned, to the denarii of the Triumvir a. a. a. f. £ L. Mescinius Rufus, which dated June 27th 738 until June 26, 739 at the latest, during the eighth tri« bunicia potestas of Augustus; celebrate these denarii of Mescinius for the most part the most important event of that time, of the year 737: the secular games. Another triumvir of the same time, M. Sanquinius, like Mescinius, celebrates on almost all of them his coins the secular games; except these but on his all coins to the Divns Julius, whose head with the Comet is shown on the forehead.
If we hereby fully account for the not insignificant number Freshly minted denarii from the Metz find with DI WS IVUVS and Compare it to the comet, that's what makes me think on, these denarii with the comet were also linked to one special experiences associated with the secular games of 737 commemoration ceremony for Divus Julius, then that explains itself Freshly minted, completely identical to the denarius with the votes from 738 Appearance of these denarii. That at the secular games the gods lectistemia prepared • is known and that the head of the Divus Julius with the comet on one side, the herald of the Secular games (EckhelY, p. 300, Sanquinia) on the other Page that appears on coins of Sanquinius is not a weak one Support this assumption of mine.
1) Mescinius minted in 738 and Tielleichbt in 739, not 787. The coin of Mescinius with the alleged TR POT VlI at Angnstns is mentioned (see Mommsen Roman Mnnzw. p. 742 note 9).
Contributions to ancient Mohz and Antihomology. ISL
For the dating of the remaining denarii from the Metz find The coins of Mescinius again offer us a stopping point point: Mescinius celebrates the secular games and on his coins the Yota pro salute et reditu Augusti; the character of his Coins is often the standing Mars^ usually a vexillum in the hand. This Mars is rightly generally used for the Signa recepta reminiscent of Mars Ultor.
So the triumvir of the year 738 celebrates on his coins the Vota pro salute et reditu, the ludi saeculares and the signa recepta: the Metz find brought a large number Completely mint denarii with the signis receptis, the Mars Ultor, the chariot relating to the signa recepta, the clypeus virtutis, finally with the wreath, which in my opinion as well as the shield on those recovered from the Parthians Citizens who interpret cives servati (No. 2 - 8, No. 10). These coins are the same as the denarius with the votis from the year 738 in the find Fresh from the stamp, so they are probably also 738 or around 737, i.e. h. i.e. coined during or immediately after the Secular Games. The large number of coins depicting the Parthian successes Celebrations have been proven to begin with Augustus the fifth tribunicia potestas (Eckhel VI, p. 100), immediately after the return of the Signa and the prisoners; but the main mass seems^ as our Metz find proves, later, around 737 or to be minted in 738; one may like^ what the coins of the mass cinius indicate the memory on the occasion of the secular games the glorious events of Augustus' reign Mass minting of coins with related depictions refreshed again.
Finally the last coin of the find, No. 11: IMP. X Pushing bull.
Also . this piece was outstanding in appearance and degree of preservation quite the same as the others: bright uncirculated shine; and it stands Actually, nothing stands in the way of even using this denarius for one

182 A. TOD Ballet:
Denarius, 741 or even 742, is an arbitrary one. We know only that Augastus, during his eleventh tribonicia potestas, So June 27, 741-42, still IMP.X was») and already 735/86 IMP.IX; when the tenth Acclamation took place is entirely unknown known. From a knowledgeable perspective, the year 738 is given to me not inappropriate for the tenth Acclamation to Emperor draws; So maybe this is only available in one copy Metzer find piece 737/38, more likely in the latter Years, 738, minted.
The Metz discovery seems to have the following result for them Coinage of Augustus to be delivered: immediately afterwards The celebration of the secular games was coined in 737 or 738 Coins that commemorated previous significant events: with the comet of Divus Julius, with the signis receptis, the Mars Ultor and others on regaining the standard and Ge£EU3genen related representations, especially with the C Lypeus Virtutis. — The Tenth Emperor's Acclamation Augustus probably dates back to 738.
Whether the find was related to Augustus' expedition and the restless conditions in Gaul? The denarius is minted with the votis certainly immediately after the emperor left the city leave; maybe the shipment or transport depends on this whole, e.g. Th. freshly minted money containing sum of Rome to Gaul, however, with the entire expedition, and that Excavation of the treasure with the soon to be the defeat of the LoUius following threatening conditions of those on the Rhine neighboring areas together.

Crispina and Commodut.
Eckhel gives a description of a gold coin from the Com- mode with the head of the. Crispina:
Petitioner IMP. CAES. L. A VREL. COMMODVS . GERM. SARMS Head with wreath.
Ä/. CRISPINA. AVG. Head of the Empress.
X Private collection (de France) in Vienna.
This coin is lost; that of Cohen YII p. 203 ver- drew something similar in Commodus' transcription August US title, which is in the manze described by Eckhel missing. — Commodus married Crispina in 930. That this happened before he received the title Augustus, would only and only prove that lost coin if we do not whose pieces struck outside Rome have the desired quality had confirmation of this fact:
Byzantium.

M 7th Mus. Collect Numism. 11, p. 279.
Sanclemente rightly remarks on these coins: signati autem yidentur ad celebrandam conjugiam Gommodi cum Crispina.'' The strange thing about this small series of coins is that both the red like the Byzantine, do not yet mix with Commodus give the title of Aogustus, but it doesn't seem to me to be apparent anywhere yet. to be upscale. That also the transcription and representation of the LIBERALITAS AVG as the reverse of a Commodus y coin. J. 930, before his appointment as Augustus suggests that Eckhel notes that he married Crispina before this appointment (n, 106): Capitolin says that M. Aurel is with the people gave a congiarium for his son's wedding. So it is sure that Crispina, although her husband was Caesar, but when M. Aurel married, he received the title Au- gasta received. This is actually a complete contradiction with the message from Capitolinus (M. Ant. Philos. c 27): “filio suo Bruttii Praesentis filiam iunxit nuptiis celebratis exemplo more private about'' and is a striking contrast to the back- attitude of Pertinax^ who did not want his wife held the title of Empress and this appointment, as well as the either prevented his son from becoming Caesar, or only contradicted eagerly accepted. 1) — An explanation is given for the appointment of the Crispina to Augusta in the Praenomen Imperator and the Laurel wreath of her husband, Caesar Commodus.

the Zenobia interpretive inscription RESTITVTor or -ori ORICNTIS around the emblem of the standing emperor, to whom Yictoria a wreath is enough. In addition to the same character, there are now these instead common RESTITVTORIENTIS on very few pieces, so far only one specimen in Vienna, three in the Pest National Museum, one in Berlin, known, the different inscription RESTIVT ORI- GENTIS, which was first published by Eckhel in the Catalogus Musei Caesarei (II, 395) and more recently Ton Cohen (V p. 147), Rhode and A. Honräth (Wiener numismat. Zeitschr. X, p. 322 f.) has been discussed. Eckhel gives this without further addition Inscription like this:
"RESTITVTOR! GENTIS (them)"
This means “resttitutori gentis” instead of the usual restitut (or or ori) Orientis." Cohen declares it a stamping error, instead of the correct inscription RESTITVTORIENTIS, Rhode and Horvith are inclined to use the interpretation: “restitutori gentis^ for the to keep correct.
But I think both views are incorrect. This "restitutorigentis" is not a stamping error and does not mean “restitutori gentis^, it is nothing more than the usual transcription “restitut orientis^, but with an unusual, classic one time alien, perhaps local dialectical sub-form of the word oriens: “origens.^
The completely exact correspondence of the characteristics of those tenen denarii with the frequent ones, which RESTITVTORIENTIS have, one can already assume that the inscription with the inserted G is identical to that one. A coin inscription, which the proud “populus romanus^ or the respublica with “gens** is completely unknown; after everything else we do Knowing of similar inscriptions, there also seems to be an alleged one “restitutori gentis^ not at all in the style of such transcriptions and without Analogy. The inscriptions on coins are known:
i^
188 A. from Sallet:
restitutor orbis
^ pietatis
“ saecali
^ reipublicae
^ generis humani
“ modDetae
^ orientis
“exerciti (they)
“'libertatia
^ Comae
“ s. ang. (saecali aag.?)
“ urbis
also the country names: restitutor Achaiae, Airicae, etc. So no savings on “restitutori gentis.”
For the assumption that “origens^ is a late, non-classical Many analogies can be made as a secondary form for “oriens”. That by Aurelian's time there were already many unclassical word forms appear in the coin inscriptions, is already proven by the ''exerciti'', which can be found with him (Coh. No. 175). — For the possibility the form ORIGENS initially speaks origo; those when speaking the often spontaneous insertion of a g between two Yocale, namely i and e, can also be found in other words in later times: in the Bamberg manuscript of someone^); ezigentes = exientes (for exeuntes).
Also occurs:
aUginigenus == alienigenus; agis — ais, n.s.w.')
In any case, the assumption of a secondary form is ORIGENS much more natural and probable than the completely unprecedented 'restitutori gentis*', while assuming a stamp error

Plate III.
Öeit Dr. Wemicke the Breslan goldsmith Tobias Wolflf, later in the service of Elector Augustus of Saxony, from the Documents proven and Julius Friedlaender's identity this Wolff with the previously incorrectly named Tobias Wost- lichen medalist shown (advertisement for customers of the German Before 1880 p. 188 and 281), except for a small note from me another worthwhile work on the works of this exceptional signed artist in the IX. Volume of the magazine for numismatics matik, published by F. Friedensburg. Friedensburg published there a gold one from the municipal collection in Breslau Medal for Wolff's patron, Duke Georg von Brieg (1585) and a larger lead medallion of the doctor Woyssel with the T and W existing well-known monogram Wolff, from the year 1619. The similarity highlighted by Friedensburg the Woff lead medal I published earlier on Hans Georg Dehne, 1592,^ which Friedensburg only from the illustration knew, (see journal f. Num. VIII p. 204) but is through equation of the two pieces not confirmed; the bust portrait, like the reverse of the medal on Woyssel is of much lower quality, harder style, still quite good and delicate for the year 1619, but not close to all other known medals
194 A. Yon Sallet:
WoUTs, apparently built over by another hand. There itself high Age of the artist - which according to those known in documents Data around 1619 must have been at least around eighty years old We don't have to explain this big difference in style perhaps in the T. W. of the medal on Woyssel not the knew the medalist, Tobias Wolff, but a younger man of this name, probably the son of the older T. W recognize. There is a very similar situation with one beautiful silver medal from the Berlin Coin Cabinet, on “Paulus Frankenstein^ 1582, which has the well-known monogram of the Saxon Italian artist Hans Reinhard, from HR, shows, but in the style of the work of this in the thirties of the 16th century blooming master is röUig different, very similar to T. WoUTs Work follows and is probably the work of a younger HR, Hans Reinhard, who, as we know from the documents, was like his Yater Goldsmith in Leipzig: “Hans Rein- hard aurifaber, Joannis filius^ took the oath of citizenship in 1584 and was still alive in 1619.^) So I would like to use the peace- The medal from the Wroclaw Coin Cabinet depicted in the castle with the Portrait of the doctor Woyssel on the existence of a doctor of the same name Son of Tobias Wolff, who did his work with the Monogranun, inherited from his father, a very capable one Artist was^ but, according to the decline in medal artistry of that time, the Yater's spirit and genius and technical skills didn't have sophistication. —

I give the reasonably successful collotype print on plate III Series of lead medals by Tobias Wolff, which are made from a from the loosened Augsburg art collection.
My earlier guess was that these lead medals were the ones Hand-made copies by the artist, the first test pieces, like us e.g. B. from leaden test knock-offs of the Benvenuto medals Celliui know^ (Friedlaender, coins and medals of Benvenuto Cellini (1855) p. 4. , — Bembo writes that he has "piombi" from Cellini's coins received), is perhaps not entirely correct, because I know two of the medals shown on Melchior Zipser equally beautiful examples in lead, so maybe that's the view It is preferable that the lead medals take the place of WolfP copper, d. h. the lesser variety, which he delivered cheaper, than the silver and gold. Several of the lead pieces wear, as I noted earlier and how this is found several times on originals made of soft, base metal, not just Tobias Wol£^ old, written or printed paper, or its traces; this is how you read e.g. B. on the medal of Joachim von Beust clearly printed on the back: mi- lites .... All of these lead castings are one-sided, except for August Jenitz, whose back is Victoria Heidenreich; the medals are all very exquisitely and sharply cast (only Jenitz's Bust portrait has errors), almost all very thin, and show the for old Lead original characteristic beautiful deep gray coloring; whether and How much is chiselled in these excellent castings can be determined Lead very difficult to decide; some of them are so sharp and successfully, the artist no longer needed any help fbr considered necessary; sometimes the wrinkles of the face, Small things in the hair and clothing can be easily adjusted
In any case, such originals in lead are the most beautiful and crafted

196 A. DEATH Sallet:
Reproduction of the soapstone models, all of which are probably lost; WoUT's silver medals are always much duller.
A diplomatically accurate description of the medals is un- necessary, I give the transcriptions in italics:

2. Melchior Zipser v. Dres(den) aeta 33. Left in the coat deepens the monogram from TW and 1593.

WolfT's works differ from deoi later that the T is not marked by a simple line is indicated, but completely above the W, by a light point connected to this appears.
Those depicted have little historical interest.

The last medal for lawyers is not without interest Joachim von Beust, at least an ancestor of the Austrian Ministers. Joachim von Beust was a respected, learned man Mann, professor and electoral councilor in Wittenberg, later Guardian of the princes. Since the medal is from 1571, Tobias But Wolff was only documented in 1574 by Elector August of Bres- lau was called to Saxony, we have proof here, that • the Silesian artist had already worked with influential, People in Saxony who are close to the Electoral Court connection was established.
Regarding the artistic value of the medals shown As far as Tobias Wolff is concerned, what has already been said several times should not be mentioned here be repeated.

The southern one probably shows western part of Achaea the high valleys of Peiraios and Selinus on the southern slopes of the Panachaikon, where the city areas of Tritaea, Leontion and Pharae spread out, even large ones Kinship with the neighboring North Arcadian Greys, but its political position, like its population, is dependent ▼on the fate of the coastal edge. Four different coastal levels of unequal size, separated from each other by the mountain mass of the Panachaikon and through the foothills of the mighty current mountain ranges of Erymanthos, Aroania, Elrathis and Kyllene, into whose high valleys reach the seats of the Achaeans, form the landscape of Achaia.

The outstanding share, which the Achaean cities took part in sending out the colonies to West, here as in Euboea there follows a period of Relaxation during the century of the Persian Wars. The The connection with the western colonies was not resolved, but only came in exceptional cases, such as the averaging the cities of the motherland after the fall of the Pytha Goräer (Polyb.

Only a few have any mention of the federal constitution of the Achaeans Opportunities the speech. As the Jonians of Asia Minor ask to be allowed to recreate the cult image of the Helicean Poseidon, and if this is denied them by the Helikeem, they turn adhere to the xoivov tüv ^Axaujiv\ but Helike also contributes to this no consequence of the Achaeans' voting decision ^). However, from this conclude that there is only a very loose connection between the federal government Wanting is therefore by no means justified, because in...

I. The Covenant of the Ten Ancient Places.
The first beginning of the new agreement falls into the 124th Olympics piad, in which in Egypt Ptolemy Lagi, in Asia Minor Lysi- machos, in Syria the first Seleucus, in Macedonia Ptolemy Keraunos died soon after one another. In which this results in The new rulers were initially called for the change of throne preoccupied by their domestic circumstances, in Macedonia was at the same time the Gauls invaded Ptolemy lost his life, complete anarchy occurred, and while until now the foreign dynasts jealously guarded their had sought to preserve the river in the Peloponnese, the latter was now left to their own devices. While the Epirote king Pyrrhus followed Italy translated, the four cities of Western Achaia, Dyme, Paträ, Tritäa, Pharae came together to form a new covenant. In the five- A year later Aegion drove out his Macedonian garrison, to join the league.

Likewise, at the federal assembly that took place in Aegion The vote took place at the sanctuary of Zeus Hamarios cities, while the participants take part in the assembly was due to every full citizen of the federal cities.
The weakness of Macedonia after the Gaulish War and the Battles in which Antigenes Gonatas only gradually succeeded in winning his battles To strengthen power again were important for the beginnings of the Achaean Association of cities is extremely cheap. The Achaeans only take it once Part of the alliance that King Arcus of Sparta, Elis and the majority of the Arcadian cantons agreed with the Athenians closes; The Athenian inscription that has survived to us^) is also the earliest documented mention of the new covenant, Its western border neighbors Sikyon, Phlius, Corinth, Ai^os At that time everyone supported Antigonus.
As far as the constitution of the Achaean League is concerned, one gets used to seeing them as they are in Polybius II, 37 and 38 is presented as finished and expanded, already the first To vindicate the period of the covenant, and the later covenant only as a transfer of the association of the 10 old places to one to look at a wider area spatially.

II. Sicyon, Corinth and Megara.
In the year 251, in his 21st year, Arat had the liberation of Sikyon and the accession of his hometown to the Achaean The federal government was achieved, and six years later he was already holding the position himself the strategy for the first time, and with his first re-election In 243 he announced his policy of establishing the Achaean state expand. The surprise of the Macedonian occupation on Acrocorinth there was Corinth, which had existed since the time of the Battle of Ch&ronea was under foreign rule, freedom was restored which, and as a result of this, Megara also fell from Antigenes Gona- tas from to join the Achaean League, which thus became the border neighbor of Attica and Boeotia.
The capture of Corinth helped the alliance achieve a powerful political position of power and brought him into opposition to Make- donien, that through its crews and those supported by it tyrants control by far the largest part of the Peloponnese in activity held. In order to secure possession of the castle of Corinth, They now had 400 Achaean hoplites instead of the Macedonians to take them in as federal occupation (Plut. Arat. 24). But if making it the most important trading city on the Greek mainland the Confederation had come, this was not without confessions possible. The Achaean coinage convention was on it founded, half the Aeginean drachma for their silver money Weight of 2.85 grams (44 e. gr,) to use in the Peloponnesian cities was the dominant one; the tetrobolone of the Corinthian didrachm of 8.55 gr.

That's why for even Corinth did not refrain from taking part when he entered were freed from the federal coinage, namely from him of trioboles two rows in front, a younger one with the Pegasus and usually also the K as the beginning of the city name, which is probably lich with the resumption of the city after the battle Cynoscephaly began, and an older one at 9 and exceptionally go with the monogram ^; the latter returns to the latest autonomous coins from Paträ again as KP '), so that it is the It seems as if these older pieces are not in at all Corinth, but was minted for Corinth in Paträ. every- if Corinth has in its coinage after it was in the Achaean After the alliance came into being, no change was made, but stuck to his tried and tested trading coin, the Di- drachma series suffer as little as those of small silver an interruption.

Since the end of the Chremonidean army was in Munychia and the Piraeus, as well as a Macedonian garrison on Sunion and Salamis, and This meant that Athens, even if there were no foreign troops inside, Half of its walls were no longer located, but in fact it was completely in make-up.

Although now Athens is the one power was wrested from the Macedonian king and the Achaean The federal government is at least freed from an inconvenient border neighbor was, the purpose of helping to liberate Athens can only be who was to win Athens as the federal city of the Achaeans, what was not achieved despite the liberation The island Aegina was admitted at that time, but Athens did not join. The reason for this will be found in the fact that, once admitted into the Confederation, legally protected from such insignificant Country towns like Tritäa and Leontion tend not to be given any preference would have had to claim, but then also in the opposite between Peloponnesians and non-Peloponnesians.

The Weights of Mantinea silver band range from 2.47 to 2.32, those of Antigoneia, later than the year 222, between 2.49 and 2.10. The weight fluctuations are the smallest in the coins of Paträ, Dyme, Sikyon and Corinth. The Weights of the federal silver of Lakedaemon between 2.47 - 1.95, from Messene between 2.47 - 2.19, from Elis between 2.49 - 2.04 (in the older series), - whereby the lower dishes of the ones in front of me lying copies consistently the sequence more or less strong Yemutzang, can therefore be ignored - show that in the years 192 and 191 these three landscapes joined the alliance, the reduction of the coin, if such a thing has taken place at all, only an extreme one has been low, and the most recent series teaches the same thing of Elian coins with the magistrate's name spelled out The weight corresponds completely to the previous series.
