* Nor can any approximation to certainty be attained until the whole of the earlier Selencid bronze coins are made the subject of a much more full and thorough investigation than they have yet received. The main reason in favour of assigning Nos. 49 ff. to Antiochns III. is that they do not certainly belong to any other king, and that witliout them his bronze coinage would seem unduly meagre.

ANTIOCHUS
Circa

IV.

(BPIPHANES)
B.C.

175164

Antioclms IV. was the brother of Seleucus. Taken to Borne as a hostage after the battle of Mtttjncsia, he remained there nearly fourteen years. On his way bnclc to Syria he spent some time in Athens.* He was still in Greece when news of his brother's deatlt reached him. Hastening eastwards, he had his nephew (loho had succeeded him as a hostage to Home) set aside, and secured the crown for himself. Throughout his reign he remained, on good terms with the Unmans. Evidence of the divine honours accorded him in his lifetime is borne by his coins, not merely through the inscription (Nos. 21 ff.), but also through the appearance of stars on the diadem (Nos. 4, etc.), and through the idealization of the head (Nos. 5, etc.).

ANTIOCH
First

Century

B.C.

Antioch had been a mint during tlie days of the Seleucid monarchy* Subsequently As a the city itself issued bronze coins, usually in two or three denominations. ride, each issue extends over a series of years, and is followed by a period during lohich the mint appears to have been idle. The types of the highest, which is also the commonest denomination, varied but little. In the case of the lower denominations changes were not infrequent. At first the dates are reclconed according to the Seleucid Era. The earliest of the following must have been contemporary
with the latest silver issues of the Seleucid Icings

The larger denomination

B.C.

After the victory of Antiochus [wJw himself striiclc bronze coins at Jerusalem circa 132 B.C.*), tlie Jews again became dependent on their neighbours for a silver currency, notably, after 126 B.C., on the Tyrians. Simon had been assassinated
in 135 B.C. Under his successor, John Hyrcanus (135 104 B.C.), small bronze pieces, for local circulation, began to be minted. They were issued in the name of the ruling prince as high-priest, and of the ' commonioealth f of the Jews.

* The application of this principle clears away many of the difficulties that have hitherto surrounded the dates on the coins of Agrippa II. Under Titus the head of Vespasian disappeared from the highest denomination (Madden, op. cit., p. 153, No. 4), and under Domitian the head of Titus was similarly displaced both on the highest and on the intermediate one {Ihid., p. 156, No. 5, and p. 159, Nos. 20 f.). Under Claudius and Nero the First Era is used. In the earliest issue under Vespasian (74 A. v.) a fitful attempt was made to introduce the Second Era, both systems being employed in that year. The First Bra alone was used in 75 and in 77 a.d. But in 78 a.d. it was definitely superseded by the Second Era, and was not used again, except possibly on Madden p. 159, Nos. 19 21, which may thus belong either to 83 a.d. or to 95 a.d. t It is worth noting that the name of Vespasian is always in the dative on this series,

ROMAN PROCURATORS OF JUDAEA


Bkonze
After the banishment of Archelaus in 6 A.D., Judaea was reduced to the status of a proviuctal territory by the Iioiiiaiis, and administered by procurators. It was incorporated in the h'ngdovi of Agrippa I. in 41 a.d. but on his death, in 44 A.D.,
;

it

became a territory once more, and so continued until the First Bevolt. The bronze coins struch by the procurators for local circulation conformed strictly to Pharisaic orthodoxy. They are dated according to the regnal years of the emperors.

Ptolemy secured the satrapy of what was undoubtedly the wealthiest and most secure portion of his kingdom. At first he acted nominally as governor for Philip III. (Aridaeas) and Alexander IV. O.i the death of the latter (311 B.C.) he recognized no new master, but he did not formally assume the title BaCTtXcus until after that step had been taken by Antigonus (306 B.C.). Nos. 1 and 2 probably fall within the interregnum (311 305 B.C.), No. 2 having been struck in Cyprus before its capture by Demetrius.

* Svorono3 his text (op. cii., pp. 94 ff.), considers that on all of them the dates are reckoned by the rognal years of Ptolemy 11., suggesting that at first the older system of numerals was use. In his Introduction (op. cit., po.') this proposal is withdrawn. While still holding that Nos. 4.5 ff. are dated by regnal years, he puts forward the view that the series to which No. 42 belongs IS dated by the era of Tyre, and that one system of numeration was in use throughout, on No. 42 being equivalent to

B.C.

Circa

Ptolemy IV. did not inherit his father's force of cliuracter. He left the government mainly in the hands of Snsihlos and Agathocles, ivhile lie ijave himself up to voluptuous living. The prestige of a great victory won over Antiochus III. at Baphia, combined with the firm basis on which Ms predecessors had organized the government, prevented the kingdom from suffering so seriously as it might have done, although at one period Ptolemy had to face a most formidable revolt. No. 1 may belong to the early part of his reign before his mother, Berenice, loho had great influence over him, was deprived of her power and driven to her death by Sosibios.*

belonging to the following group, although distinctly Iberian in conform in standard to the ordinary Boman currency. Chronologically they cover four distinct periods, extending from the Treaty of 226 B.C. to the reorganization that followed the fall of Numantia, in 13.3 B.C., with a temporary revival during the war with Sertorius (80 72 B.C.). There is much similarity of types, especially within the same districts. The Iberian inscr. on the Bev. gives the name of the tribe on whose behalf the issue appears to be made. The districts are here arranged geographically, the numbering of the coins being continuous for each ; within these, the coins are classified chronologically, -f and also by denominations, irrespective of the tribal names and probable mints, although these latter particidars are always indicated as far as possible.
