<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Nicholas Molinari, post: 14844192, member: 78411&quot;]Yes, it is Acheloios of the Sebethos, IMO. In antiquity, the rivers of the world were seen as the “sinews” of Acheloios, and often assumed his form in art.&nbsp; Your coin is interesting because it features the IS below Acheloios (IS in Greek means both ‘strength’ and ‘sinew’). I’m writing a fairly lengthy essay on the topic now, which might interest you. I also maintain in a recent essay that he is crowned by Parthenope-Nike, because Parthenope’s embodiment of victory in transcending death is at the core of Neapolitan cultural identity.&nbsp; My essay on that topic was recently published, but still behind a paywall.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
