Aynı tip, farklı lejand: Ankhialos mu Soloi mu?

Bu makale İstanbul Arkeoloji Müzeleri Sikke Koleksiyonu’ndaki Kilikia Bölgesi liman kentlerinden Soloi-Pompeiopolis’e ait sikke grubu arasında tespit edilen bir sikkeyi inceler. O. N. Arıdağ özel koleksiyonundan satın alınarak müzeye kazandırılmış olan sikkenin, buluntu yerine ilişkin bir bilgi bulunmamaktadır. Tipoloji açısından Soloi-Pompeiopolis’in M.Ö. V. yy.’ın ikinci yarısında bastığı ön yüzde Amazon, arka yüzde üzüm salkımı bulunan sikkelerle birebir benzerlik gösterdiğinden, muhtemelen bu nedenle Soloi-Pompeiopolis sikkeleri altında kataloglanmıştır. Ancak arka yüzde lejand ΣOΛΕΩN olarak beklenirken [A]ΓXIAΛ[A] olarak okunmaktadır. Böylece lejand lokasyonu kesin olarak tespit edilememiş ve sikkeleri fazla bilinmeyen bir başka Kilikia kenti, Ankhialos’u Ankhiale işaret etmektedir. Diğer taraftan Ankhialos, Soloi’un daha önceki adı olabileceğinden, bu sikke iki kentin aynı kent olup olmadığı sorusunu da beraberinde getirir.

Same Type, Different Legend: Anchiale or Soloi?

This article investigates a coin found in the coin collection at the Istanbul Archaeological Museums that is ascribed to Soloi-Pompeiopolis, a harbour city in Cilicia. Acquired from the private collection of numismatist and collector Osman N. Arıdağ in 1961, the item Inv. No: KD 650-1787 was recorded as a coin of Soloi whose provenance is not known. The coin was catalogued under Soloi-Pompeiopolis, probably due to its thoroughgoing resemblance to the type on coins of Soloi-Pompeiopolis. These were struck during the second half of the 5th century B.C. and depicted the kneeling Amazon obverse and grape bunch reverse . The legend on the reverse, however, is [A]ΓXIAΛ[A] rather than ΣOΛΕΩN as would be expected. The legend therefore indicates another Cilician city, Anchiale, whose precise location has not yet been determined and whose coins are little known. These facts about Anchiale lead, then, up to the question of whether Anchiale was formerly Soloi
