This article discusses 86 weights from the İzak Eskinazi Collection. While some are from outside Anatolia, most belong to cities in Western Anatolia, and their identifications and descriptions have been made possible due to the presence of ethnikon or parasemon. Although attributions could not be made for some weights due to the absence of ethnikon or parasemon, it can still be said that they mostly belong to cities in Western Anatolia.

İzak Eskinazi Koleksiyonundaki Hellenistik Dönem Ağırlıklar

Öz

Bu makalede, İzak Eskinazi Koleksiyonu’nda yer alan 86 adet terazi ağırlığı ele alınmaktadır. Bazıları Anadolu dışından olsa da çoğu Batı Anadolu kentlerine aittir ve üzerlerinde ethnikon veya parasemon taşımalarından dolayı teşhis ve tanımları yapılabilmiştir. Bazı ağırlıkların teşhisi yapılmasına rağmen, ethnikon veya parasemon eksikliğinden dolayı atribüsyonları yapılamamıştır ancak bunların da daha ziyade Batı Anadolu kentlerine ait oldukları söylenebilir.
