This paper examines a number of Lycian coins dated to the second half of the fifth century BC which were either previously unknown, or inadequately published. Some attributions are discussed and in some cases new solutions are proposed. A stater from Patara attributed to Wekhssere II was actually struck by Ukhssepddimi, a previously unknown dynast of the late fifth century BC. Links with the issues of Wakhssepddimi are discussed and coins previously attributed to Wekhssere I are shown to have been actually struck by Wakhssepddimi. Further new coins are discussed and attributed to a previously unknown dynast named Wakhssebllimi, minting c. 440–430 BC.

Bazı Yeni Likya Sikke Tipleri Hakkında

Öz

Makalede ya eskiden bilinmeyen, ya da yetersiz
bir şekilde yayımlanan M.Ö. beşinci yüzyılın ikinci yarısına tarihlenen bir
dizi Likya sikkesi incelenmektedir. Önceden yapılmış bazı atıflar tartışılmakta
ve bazı örnekler için yeni çözümler önerilmektedir. II. Wekhssere’ye atfedilen
Patara’da basılmış bir stater aslında M.Ö. beşinci yüzyılın sonlarına doğru
Ukhssepddimi adında daha önce bilinmeyen bir hükümdar (dynast) tarafından
basılmıştır. Wakhssepddimi’nin sikkeleri ile var olan bazı ilişkiler
incelenmekte ve daha önce Wekhssere’ye atfedilen paralar aslında Wakhssepddimi
tarafından basılmış olduklarına gösterilmektedir. İlâveten daha önce bilinmeyen
bazı yeni sikkeler ele alınmakta ve Wakhssebllimi (440–430 M.Ö.) adında henüz
belgelenmemiş bir hükümdar tarafından basıldıkları kanıtlanmaktadır.
