Title A name given to the resource Thasos, Silver Stater Subject The topic of the resource Thasos, Greece, Silver Stater, ca. 525-463 BCE. Obverse: Naked ithyphallic satyr running right with struggling maenad in his arms. Reverse: Quadripartite incuse square. Description An account of the resource The island of Thasos, just off the coast of Thrace in the north Aegean Sea, was a cultic center for the worship of Dionysus. This motif is a common one for northern Greece, an area famed for its wine. The variations of this style include some close to absurd images where a comically muscular satyr is wooing a very muscular girl. These jolly rustic orgies are appropriate for an area where Dionysus was the most important deity and wine one of the most prized and exported products. Satyrs, a prominent image associated with this theme, are half-goat, half man creatures with varying amounts of human/animal attributes. This coin in particular has a more man-like satyr, with the only goat-like feature being the satyr’s goat legs. The incuse mark on the reverse side designates this coin as a very early Greek coin. The first coins were not illustrated on both sides. The quadripartite square, or four-parted square, is a mark from the hammer used to pound the silver into the obverse die.
