| 背面描述 | Tyche of Tyana seated left upon a throne, holding ears of corn and a bunch of grapes in her extended right hand, emblematic of the city's agricultural prosperity. Beneath the throne, a reclining river god is depicted facing left, likely personifying a local watercourse associated with Tyana. The reverse legend, divided in the field to left and right, reads ΤΥΑΝΕΩΝ ΤΗC ΙΕΡΑC ΑCΥΛΟΥ ΑΥΤΟΝΟΜΟΥ, asserting the city's sacred, inviolable, and autonomous civic status. The composition reflects the standard iconographic conventions of Cappadocian civic bronzes under Hadrian. |

| 附加信息 |
Tyana's civic coinage under Hadrian reflects the city's aggressive pursuit of honorific titles in the early second century. The triple designation — ἱερᾶς, ἀσύλου, αὐτονόμου — was not decorative. Each title had to be petitioned from Rome, and Tyana appears to have secured all three in rapid succession around Hadrian's accession, likely capitalizing on the goodwill generated by a new emperor eager to present himself as a philhellene benefactor of eastern cities.
Tyana held special prestige as the birthplace of Apollonius, the Neopythagorean philosopher whose cult remained active well into the imperial period.
