Interesting fact

The Didrachm from Oenoanda (Lycia) is interesting because it features a unique blend of Greek and Lycian elements on its design. The obverse side of the coin depicts a Greek-style head of Apollo, while the reverse side shows a Lycian-style inscription and a representation of a lion, which was a symbol of the Lycian league. This blending of cultures reflects the rich cultural heritage of the region and the exchange of ideas that occurred between different civilizations in the ancient world.
