<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Curtis, post: 24628229, member: 26430&quot;]Aha, here is something interesting I learned about Blaundus that&#039;s relevant to this coin type. About 10 miles to the southeast is a temple/sanctuary to Apollo Lairmenos. (I assume this must be Apollo Lairbenos; there&#039;s something funny going on with B&#039;s &amp; M&#039;s here; several sources report Greek coins with the legend Mlaundus instead of Blaundus!)</p><p><br /></p><p>So Apollo must&#039;ve been a sort of local patron deity. Blaundus is halfway from Bagis, a big city, so maybe travelers would&#039;ve even stopped on the way southward? (Or from Silandos &amp; Tabala.)</p><p><br /></p><p>[B-5, toward the bottom, lower center right-ish.]</p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/Vvc3vdV.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>For context, we&#039;re in the bottom-left corner of square 62 below:</p><p><img src="https://i.imgur.com/hGtuVO4.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
