Central and Southern Campania, Cumae. AR Nomos, c. 400-385 BC
Central and Southern Campania, Cumae. AR Nomos, c. 400-385 BC. Diademed head of nymph right. / Man-headed bull walking right; above, Nike flying right, crowning him; in exergue, KYMAIΩN. Cf. HN Italy 605; HGC 1 493; Cf. SNG ANS 553; Graziano 80; Cantilena 30-31. AR. 7.27 g Ø 23.5 mm RR. Very rare issue. Irregular flan. About VF.
An exceptionally rare and highly interesting issue of Cumae, closely related in fabric, type and die style to the contemporary silver coinage of Neapolis. The clearly legible ethnic KYMAIΩN firmly establishes its attribution to Cumae, making this a remarkable “hybrid” issue: Cumaean by ethnic, yet distinctly Neapolitan in fabric and style.
Comparison with the rare Cumaean issues published by R. Cantilena (Monete della Campania Antica, nos. 30–31; Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Napoli, inv. 113482), together with Graziano’s Cumaean man-headed bull type (Campaniae Nummis, no. 80), whose nymph is stylistically different, provides important parallels for identifying and understanding this unusual hybrid typology.
A rare and significant testimony to the close relationship between the coinages of Cumae and Neapolis in the late fourth century BC.
