Æ24 - Domitian ΕΠΙ ΑΡΧΙΕΡΕΩϹ ΚΛΑΥ ΒΙΑΝΤΟϹ, ΚΙ-ΒΥ

Cibyra occupied an unusual administrative position in Roman Asia Minor — it was the sole city to serve as both the seat of its own conventus and its only member, a judicial district of one, reflecting the city's regional dominance after Rome reorganized Phrygia and Lycia in the late Republic. The magistrate named in this issue, Claudius Biantus, held the archieratic office, the high priesthood of the imperial cult at the provincial level — a position as much political as religious, typically occupied by the wealthiest civic elite.

Domitian's reign saw a marked intensification of imperial cult activity across Asia Minor, which likely accounts for the prominence of the archiereus title on local bronze issues from this period.
