| Additional information |
Dorylaeum, a Phrygian city on the road connecting Nicaea to the eastern provinces, issued civic bronze under Hadrian during a period when the emperor's extended tours through Asia Minor — he visited the region in 123–124 AD — prompted renewed civic competition for imperial favor. Cities along the major routes had practical incentive to advertise loyalty through coinage, and Dorylaeum was no exception. The city later gave its name to two significant Byzantine battles, but in Hadrian's reign it was a modest conventus center subordinate to Synnada.
