Aanvullende informatie

Tabae was a Carian hill town whose civic coinage under Severus Alexander reflects the administrative reorganization of Asia Minor under the conventus system — Alabanda serving as the judicial center to which Tabae belonged. These provincial bronzes were struck for local exchange and religious festival use, not imperial circulation. The conventus arrangement gave smaller poleis like Tabae access to recognized minting authority they could not have sustained independently.
