Note: Pamphylia, notably Aspendos, was an ancient region on the southern coast of Anatolia, renowned for its prosperous cities and maritime trade. Aspendos, famous for its well-preserved theater and prolific coinage, flourished as a hub of commerce and culture in antiquity. This coin serves as a fascinating artifact of Aspendos’ history, providing insights into the city’s reliance on cavalry and ranged warfare. It also reflects the broader cultural and military practices of Pamphylia during the 4th-3rd centuries BC
