Historical background


CARACALLA

(05/27/196-04/8/217)

August

Gabala (Jebeleh) was located south of Laodicea. This small town benefited from the prosperity brought by the trade between the cities of Laodicea, Arados and Epiphania. The imperial coinage begins with Augustus and ends under Macrinus. The era of Gabala begins around 46-45 BC, when the city obtained its autonomy, granted by Julius Caesar.
