Beschrijving voorzijde Draped bust of Athena facing right, wearing a crested Corinthian helmet with a long flowing plume trailing to the left and an aegis at the shoulder. The helmet sits high on the goddess's head, its cheekpieces framing a finely rendered profile with an aquiline nose and firm chin. Strands of hair are visible beneath the helmet's brim, and the neck is adorned with a slight drapery fold. The portrait is rendered in a confident Hellenistic style, occupying nearly the full flan, with no legend on the obverse.

Aanvullende informatie

Apameia was refounded by Antiochus I on the site of Kelainai and named for his mother Apama, becoming one of the most commercially significant cities of interior Anatolia — a major node on the trade routes connecting the Aegean coast to Syria. Following the Roman reorganization of Asia after 133 BC, Phrygian civic bronzes like this one proliferated as local magistrates asserted municipal identity within the new provincial framework. The named magistrate Phainippos, son of Drakon, appears in the standard eponymous format used across the city's long bronze series, which spans nearly a century of provincial civic life.
