Additional information

Hierapolis in Phrygia — not to be confused with the better-known Syrian city — sat within the conventus of Cibyra, one of the judicial districts Rome organized across Asia Minor to administer provincial affairs without direct military governance. The magistrate named in the legend, Iollas son of Iollas, held the title grammateus, the civic secretary responsible for issuing coinage in the city's name. The repetition of the name across generations suggests a prominent local dynasty investing in visible public office during the early Augustan reorganization of the eastern provinces.
