Historical background


LYCIA - SATRAPS OF LYCIA - ANONYMOUS

(6th - 5th century BC)

We have little historical information about these semi-independent Lycian satraps who established themselves in the second half of the 5th century. Their coins disappeared definitively during the second half of the 4th century, with the arrival in the region of the satrap of Cilicia, Mazaios.
