Gorgoneion Medusa And Celery Selinon Leaf With Dots, Ancient Collectibles And Numismatics. An AE Trias was a bronze coin from ancient Greece, specifically from Sicily, that was worth one-third of a litra. The "AE" indicates it was made of bronze ("aes" in Latin), and "Trias" refers to its value, meaning it was equivalent to three lepta or one-third of a obol or litra. These coins were produced in various ancient Greek cities, with Syracuse being a notable producer during periods like the 4th century BC under rulers like Timoleon. // Selinus was once one of the most important Greek colonies in Sicily. In 409 B.C., the Carthaginians attacked with a vast army believed to include at least 100,000 men. Selinus, with a population of about 30,000 excluding slaves, was unprepared and an auxiliary force promised by Syracuse, Agrigentum and Gela did not arrive. The Selinuntines defended themselves with courage, and after the walls were breached, continued to fight from house to house. After tens days the city fell. Of the citizens, 16,000 were slain and 5,000 made prisoners, but more than 2,600 escaped to Agrigento. // Ancient Numismatics And Collectibles, Ancient Mediterranean History, Iron Age Coinages, Greece, Italy, Antique Silver Coin, Classic European Antiquities, Small Coins. // Disclaimer: Read The Description And Watch Carefully The Images Provided.
