Æ13

Ophrynion was a minor coastal settlement in the Troad, remembered chiefly as the site of a hero-shrine to Hector — a cult sufficiently prominent that Lysimachus, when he refounded nearby Ilion in the early third century, transferred Hector's remains there as a deliberate act of political consolidation. That the town issued its own bronze coinage at all suggests a degree of civic autonomy in the late fourth century that it would not long retain.
