Cidyessus was a minor Phrygian city whose civic coinage under Marcus Aurelius represents one of the few surviving records of its local magistracy — the name Sēbēros appearing in the legend is almost certainly a local official, a grammateus or stratēgos, whose tenure is otherwise unattested in any literary or epigraphic source. Provincial bronze of this conventus was struck under the authority of the Synnada assize district, one of the administrative subdivisions Rome used to organize judicial and fiscal affairs across Asia Minor.
