| Aanvullende informatie |
The homonoia ("concord") coinage between Hierapolis in Phrygia and Sardis in Lydia reflects a formal alliance between two cities competing aggressively for Roman imperial favor during the third century. Both held neokorate status — the prestigious designation of official keeper of an imperial cult temple — and joint issues like this one were diplomatic instruments, advertising shared loyalties to Rome while reinforcing each city's standing against rivals in their respective conventus districts. Philip I's reign provided a convenient moment: a new emperor needed friends, and provincial cities needed recognition.
Homonoia bronzes of this pairing are documented but not abundant. The combination of two neokorate titles in a single legend is the typological point of interest here.
