| Additional information |
Attuda was a minor Phrygian city whose civic coinage under Septimius Severus reflects the intense competition among provincial communities to secure imperial favor through honorific bronze issues. The city held status as a dia (distinguished) community within the Alabanda conventus — a judicial circuit that organized Roman administrative life across Caria — and that designation appears explicitly in the coin's legend, a point of civic pride worth advertising in bronze.
