Title A name given to the resource Achaemenid, Silver Siglos Subject The topic of the resource Achaemenid (Persian) Empire. Silver Siglos, 485-470 BCE. OBVERSE: Royal archer running right, quiver on back, holding bow in his left hand and a transverse spear in his right hand. REVERSE: Oblong, tooth-shaped incuse mark. Description An account of the resource This coin was minted during the time of one of the most famous attempts at Persian expansion, around the beginning of the fifth century BCE. The Battle of Marathon, where Darius I attempted to gain control of mainland Greece, is one of the most famous battles in all of Greek history. This battle was a turning point for Greek forces, which eventually won the battle to keep Persia at bay. Darius I died soon after the battle ended and his successor and son, Xerxes I, might have minted these coins to pay for foreign mercenaries in his own invasion of Greece in 481-479 BCE. This motif of running royal figure was prominent during the whole of the Persian Empire. He is featured with a bow, quiver of arrows, lance, crown and a special garment without sleeves worn by archers. The coin also exhibits an early way of denoting running figures with the so-called Knielauf scheme, or a profile figure running with one knee bent. The figure has been interpreted as the great king Darius I, but is also referred to simply as a “royal figure.” These coins enjoyed a reputation of being made of high quality silver and were some of the best known coins in the ancient world. The Greeks referred to them as toxotai (archers).

Title A name given to the resource Tarsus, Cilicia, Silver Stater Subject The topic of the resource Tarsus, Cilicia (Turkey). Silver Stater, ca. 378-372 BCE. OBVERSE: Facing head of a goddess or nymph, inclined to left, wearing a sphendone, multi-pendant necklace, and earrings, all set in dotted border. REVERSE: DAMATAS in Aramaic characters. Bearded male head (Ares?) wearing an Attic helmet with three-part crest and movable double visor, facing to the right, set in dotted border. Aramaic inscription in right field: TRKMW, i.e., Tarkamuwa, the Persian satrap known to the Greeks as Damates. Description An account of the resource Damates (ca. 407 - 362 BCE) was the satrap (Persian governor) of both Cappadocia and Cicilia under the Persian Great King Artaxerxes II (405-359 BCE). Proving his worth through many bloody battles, Damates became the most powerful satrap of Artaxerxes. Damates later rebelled and led the great Satrapal revolt. The revolt took almost ten years to quell and Damates was assassinated in 362 BCE. Before the revolt, around 378 BCE, another satrap, Pharnabazus of Dascylium, was ordered to invade Egypt, which had recently freed itself of Persian rule. Pharnabazus failed around 373 BCE and another order to invade was given to Damates. In order to pay for these expeditions, the two satraps minted nearly identical coins, only distinguishable by the inscription. The woman on the front is clearly inspired by the famous representations of the nymph Arethusa created by the artist Kimon for the coins of Syracuse, but her identity on these coins is a mystery. The back simply shows a helmeted warrior, possibly Ares (god of war). These designs were likely supposed to appeal to the thousands of Greek mercenaries hired during these Egyptian campaigns.
