| Reverse description | Cybele, the Phrygian mother goddess, enthroned and seated facing left upon a high-backed throne, her right hand extending a patera in a gesture of offering, her left arm resting upon a tympanum. A lion, her sacred attribute, is depicted recumbent or seated at her feet to the left. The reverse type reflects the strong Anatolian religious traditions of the region and the civic pride of Lysias in honoring the goddess. The ethnic legend ΛΥϹΙΑΔΕΩΝ is disposed in the field around the central type. |
