| Additional information |
Hypaepa was a minor Lydian town in the Cayster valley whose civic coinage under Trajan Decius names the local magistrate Hermolaus — a strategos whose brief tenure in office is otherwise unattested in literary or epigraphic sources. The coin's survival is effectively the only record that he administered anything at all.
