Additional information

Tabae was a Carian hill town of middling importance whose civic coinage under Augustus reflects the broader reorganization of the conventus system in Asia Minor following Actium. The city struck under the authority of the Alabanda conventus, one of the nine judicial districts Rome used to administer the province — a administrative arrangement that shaped which cities gained minting privileges and which did not.

Silver civic issues from interior Carian communities of this period are underrepresented in major collections, surviving primarily as single-specimen attributions in RPC I.
