Beschrijving voorzijde Prow of a war galley (trireme) advancing to the right, rendered in fine relief, featuring a prominent ram at the waterline, a raised fighting platform (epotis) along the upper deck, and the gunwale decorated with an apotropaic eye. The hull strakes are carefully articulated, and the overall composition conveys the nautical power and maritime identity of the Lycian city of Phaselis. The field below is plain and unlettered.

Aanvullende informatie

Phaselis was a Lycian coastal city that owed much of its prosperity to timber trade — specifically the cedar and fir forests of the Taurus mountains behind it — and its three natural harbors made it one of the busiest transshipment ports in the eastern Mediterranean. The city struck silver on the Persic weight standard, a deliberate accommodation to trade with the Persian-controlled interior rather than with the Greek Aegean world.

Alexander the Great wintered at Phaselis in 333 BC, using it as a staging point before crossing into Pamphylia. The city surrendered without resistance and was reportedly grateful for the visit.
