In this article the presence of coins from the mints of the Chalcidice within the boundaries of the Macedonian kingdom is examined. Along with coin hoards, we include archaeological material from various sites to understand and interpret the existence of coins of the cities of Chalcidice, the Chalcidic League, and the Bottiaeans within the Macedonian kingdom. After the final conclusions, a group of bronze coins from the excavations of Pella is published as an appendix. Coins from mints of the Chalcidice that have been found in the Macedonian kingdom are few. So far, most coins (37) can be attributed to the Chalcidic League, another 3 to the Bottiaeans, and 4 to the Chalcidic League or the Bottiaeans. Second comes Acanthus with 16 coins, and third Potidaia with 12. Further, 7 coins can be attributed to Aphytis, 5 to Mende, 4 to Scione and 1-2 issues to Aineia, Dikaia and possibly Sermyle. Finally, Ouranopolis is represented with 3 coins. Most of these coins came to light in excavations in burial and non-burial contexts, and some also were buried in coin hoards. The earliest of these issues are dated in the first half of the 5th century BC. The number of coins rises slightly in the second half of the 5th century coins, while most of the numismatic material belongs to the first half of the 4th century BC. Finally, rather few are the coins of the second half of the 4th century BC. Most of the coins and coin hoards of the first half of the 4th century BC can probably be linked to the invasion of the army of the Chalcidic League into Macedonia. People traveling from Chalcidice to Macedonia are another source.

The subject of the study is an anthropomorphic bronze candelabrum that was acquired by the Amasra Museum through purchasing. The candelabrum, a large multi-armed candelabra used to carry oil lamps during the Roman period, is made up of a plate in which the lamp is placed and a leg that raises it off the ground. There is a figure of a small child on the anthropomorphic candelabrum preserved in the Amasra Museum. This elaborated and highlighted in four directions child figure holds an important place in that it contains one of the most beautiful examples of Roman plastic art. The purpose of use, current situation, and general features of the candelabrum were emphasized within the scope of the study, and it was then evaluated in detail in terms of Roman plastic style and typology, as well as production technique. As a result of the study, the comparison of the candelabrum with similar examples was made, considering the figure feature and production technique, it was stated that it was produced at the end of the 2nd century AD and the beginning of the 3rd century AD, and why a figure of a small child might be preferred on the candelabrum.

It is proposed that the inscription be segmented at a different point to the usual, namely, immediately before ñneti. The content of the second curse is then that the perpetrator shall be defiled commensurately with the defilement of the tomb, i.e., a singular case of a talion not attested elsewhere in Lycian inscriptions, nor in Greek inscriptions from Lycia. A request to bury "my" wife and "my" children follows as an additional, third part to the inscription as originally planned, then a further addition of two persons. The verb ñneti is also attested in a non-funereal inscription, probably a treaty, and replaces here the usual verbs for "to bury". Placing the verb at the beginning of the sentence is also unusual, and this may have led the epigrapher to add it, without a word divider, onto the end of the second line.

This paper, in which we introduce new inscriptions found in various villages of Bilecik province, is a continuation of the paper we published in the previous issue of Gephyra (23, 2022). Most of the inscriptions are probably still standing in their find-spots where they were discovered, with an exception inscription number 40, today preserved in the Bilecik museum. We did not see most of the inscriptions in person, but we attempted to read them from the photographs and hand-copies that the museum staff had made and provided me (N. E. Akyürek Şahin) many years ago. At that time, I was asked to read and translate these inscriptions, and I had obtained the publication rights of these monuments. During my work at the Bilecik Museum, we had the opportunity to visit the find-spot of the inscription number 5 accompanied by the museum staff and recorded it. We have categorized the inscriptions according to their find-spots, i.e. the districts of Bilecik province. The inscriptions predominantly consist of funerary inscriptions of a similar type, while there are two epigrams (nos. 31-32) and a few Christian inscriptions dating from Late Antiquity (nos. 34-36 and 39). In general, the inscriptions mainly date from the 2nd or 3rd centuries A.D.
本文介绍了在Bilecik省各个村庄发现的新铭文,是我们在上一期Gephyra(23,2022)上发表的论文的延续。大多数铭文可能仍然矗立在它们被发现的地方,只有第40号铭文例外,今天保存在比莱西克博物馆。我们没有亲眼看到大部分铭文,但我们试图从博物馆工作人员多年前制作并提供给我的照片和手抄本(N. E. aky rek Şahin)中读出它们。当时,我被要求阅读和翻译这些铭文,我已经获得了这些纪念碑的出版权。在Bilecik博物馆工作期间,我们有机会在博物馆工作人员的陪同下参观了5号铭文的发现地点并进行了记录。我们根据它们的发现地点,即比莱西克省的地区,对这些铭文进行了分类。这些铭文主要由类似类型的丧葬铭文组成,同时有两个警句(31-32号)和一些可以追溯到古代晚期的基督教铭文(34-36号和39号)。总的来说,这些铭文主要可以追溯到公元2世纪或3世纪
