| Additional information |
Anazarbus, situated in the Cilician plain near the Pyramus River, was a city that gained particular prominence under Rome's reorganization of the region following Pompey's settlement of 64 BC. This bronze falls within a turbulent window — the final convulsions of the Republic, Caesarian civil wars, and ultimately the brief Antonian client-kingdom arrangements in Cilicia under which local civic bronzes continued to circulate as the dominant small-change medium. The SNG von Aulock 5470 attribution places this squarely within the city's early autonomous civic series before its later imperial reorientation.
