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 portrait of a bearded man wearing a laurel wreath, which is a common feature in Greek coinage. However, the reverse side of the coin shows a lion attacking a bull, which is a motif commonly found in Lycian art. This blending of cultural influences reflects the rich cultural heritage of the region and highlights the diverse artistic traditions that existed in the ancient world.
