Elaia, an Aeolian city, is called as “a satellite city of Pergamum”. It served as a sheltered port both for the Pergamene fleet and merchantmen and lived its glorious days under the Attalids. With the foundation of the Province of Asia by the Romans Elaia came under the Roman rule. The following catalogue contains 160 Elaian coins; 5 of them from the Kuvay-ı Milliye Museum in Balıkesir cat. nos. K1-K5 . Most of the coins in the collection of Bergama Museum date to the Classical and Hellenistic periods cat. nos. 1-139 and some date to the Roman Imperial period cat. nos. 140-155 . Majority of the Classical and Hellenistic coins bears the type of head of Athena / corn grain within olive wreath. Roman provincial coins range from the time of Nero to Julia Domna. We hope that the present catalogue will contribute to form a type-repertoire of the Elaian coins and to solve the attribution problems of some types which sometimes are attributed to Elaios in Thracian Chersonesos.

Bir Aiolis kenti olan Elaia, Bergama’nın “uydu kenti” olarak da anılmaktadır. Attaloslar Dönemi’nde bir yandan Bergamalıların donanmasına, öte yandan dışarıdan gelen ticaret gemilerine elverişli bir liman vazifesi de görüyordu. Romalıların Asya Eyaleti’ni kurmasıyla, Elaia da bölgenin diğer kentleri gibi Eyaletin içinde kaldı. Makalede, Bergama Müzesi’ndeki Elaia sikkeleri ele alınmakta ve 160 sikkenin kataloğu verilmektedir; sikkelerden beşi Balıkesir Kuvay-ı Milliye Müzesi koleksiyonundandır kat. no K1-K5 . Bergama Müzesi’ndeki sikkelerin çoğu kat. no. 1-139 Klasik ve Hellenistik dönemlere, bir kısmı ise kat. no. 140-155 Roma İmparatorluk Dönemi’ne tarihlenmektedir. Klasik ve Hellenistik dönemlere tarihlenenlerin büyük bir kısmı Athena başı / çelenk içinde buğday tanesi tipli sikkelerdir; Roma İmparatorluk Dönemi sikkeleri ise Nero Dönemi’nden Julia Domna Dönemi’ne kadar tarihlenmektedir. Kataloğun, Elaia sikke tipleri repertuvarının oluşturulmasına ve Trakya Khersonesos’undaki Elaios kentine atfedilen sikkelerle olan karışıklığın giderilmesine katkıda bulunacağını ümid ederiz.
