| Additional information |
Antandrus, a coastal city on the Gulf of Adramyteum in the Troad, had a long history of marginal autonomy under successive imperial administrations. Its inclusion in the Conventus of Adramyteum reflects Roman reorganization of judicial districts in Asia Minor rather than any particular political prominence — the city was small, and its civic coinage under the Flavians was correspondingly limited in output. Issues attributable specifically to Titus's reign are scarce, compressed into a window of just over two years.
