| Additional information |
Eumenea, a Phrygian city refounded by Attalid rulers in the second century BC and later absorbed into the Roman province of Asia, maintained an active civic bronze coinage under the Flavians. The magistrate name ΚΛ ΤΕΡΕΝΤΥΛΛΑ — a Romanized Claudian family name rendered in Greek — points to the Julio-Claudian-era grants of citizenship that produced exactly this kind of hybrid nomenclature in provincial administration. Such magistrates held the archiereia, the high priesthood of the imperial cult, which by Domitian's reign carried genuine civic authority.
