Name

Heraios

Magistrate in Cyme/Aeolis between c. 350 and 250 BC.

His name appears on coins issued during the Hellenistic period (e.g. BMC Troad p. 108 no. 46; SNG Tübingen nos. 2694, 2697). He presumably is not the same individual as the magistrate of the same name, who (obviousy later) signed coins with the representation of the amazon Cyme.

Lit.: W. Leschhorn, Lexikon der Aufschriften auf griechischen Münzen II (2009) p. 533 (350-250 BC); Th. Corsten, Lexicon of Greek Personal Names V A. Coastal Asia Minor (2010) s. v. Heraios (no. 1) (350-250 BC).
