| Aanvullende informatie |
Priene was a planned city, refounded on its current site in the fourth century BC under Macedonian patronage — Alexander the Great himself reportedly funded the Temple of Athena there. The Achilleides epithet, linking the city's coinage to the hero Achilles, reflects a local cult tradition specific to the Ionian coast rather than any pan-Hellenic convention. By the time this bronze was struck, Priene had passed under Attalid control and would soon fall to Rome following the bequest of Attalos III in 133 BC.
