| Reverse description | The syncretistic deity Apollo-Mên depicted on horseback, riding to the right, with a double axe (bipennis) carried over the shoulder, a characteristic attribute of the Anatolian lunar god Mên. At the feet of the horse, a small lighted altar is visible, emphasizing the cultic significance of the scene. The composition reflects the deep-rooted veneration of Mên in Galatian religious practice, blended here with Apolline iconography. The encircling Greek magistrate legend occupies the field around the mounted figure. |
