Klazomenai, an Ionian Greek city on a peninsula near modern Urla in Turkey, was among the cities that paid tribute to the Delian League under Athenian hegemony during this period. The city later relocated its entire population to a nearby island — possibly as early as the fourth century — partly for defensibility against Persian pressure along the Ionian coast. Coins from this window sit squarely within that period of political instability between Athenian dominance and the reassertion of Persian control following the Peloponnesian War's conclusion in 404 BC.
