Description
This paper presents an overview of our research into the pre-Roman history and coinage of Erythrai in Ionia, which we are conducting within the framework of a PhD thesis undertaken at the Istanbul University. The typological arrangement of the numismatic material is being recorded directly on Historia Numorum Online (HNO) and marks the start of the first Ionian mint of this collaborative project. In this paper, after a brief summary of the history of Erythrai, recent studies and excavations, our main purpose will be to introduce the city's pre-Roman coin types and explain their entry in the new Ionian volume of HNO.
