Additional information

Sala was a minor Lydian city in the Hermus valley whose civic bronze issues under Septimius Severus are notable largely for their magistrate inscriptions. The legend ΕΠΙ ΕΥΜΕΝΙ Β ΑΡΧ Α ϹΑΛΗΝΩ records a named local archon — Eumenes — serving a second term, with Saleinos as a co-official. Such double-magistrate attributions on small civic bronzes from the Sardis conventus are uncommon enough that they serve as the primary tool for sequencing the city's otherwise undated imperial output.
