Aanvullende informatie

Sparadokos ruled the Odrysian kingdom as a subordinate dynast during the reign of his brother Sitalkes, whose alliance with Athens — formalized around 431 BC and described by Thucydides — briefly made the Odrysians a significant player in Aegean politics. Sparadokos himself struck coinage independently despite his junior position, a practice tolerated among Thracian dynasts of the period. His issues are among the earliest silver coinages attributable to the Odrysian dynasty by name, predating the more prolific output of Seuthes I.
