Poids léger. La tête de l’aigle très particulière peut faire penser comme pour le monnayage de Sinope à un rapace marin.
Lightweight. The head of the very particular eagle can make one think, as with the Sinope coinage, of a marine bird of prey.

Historical background


AIOLIS - CYME

(5th - 4th century BC)

Cymé, today Sandakli, one of the most important cities of the Aeolian coast, was located south of Myrhina. It had a port and was founded by Locrians. She herself is at the origin of the foundation of Side in Pamphylia and of Cumae in Campania. It is the homeland of Hesiod.
