(explanation)
It is thought that Rhodes, a very important island in ancient Greece, introduced money for the first time in the alkaic period.. The production of money has begun in the three main three cities of Rhodes (IALYSOS, KAMIROS, Lindos).. After the Persian War, we did not issue money until the above three cities cooperated and rebuilt a new capital around 408 BC.. The new Rhodes prospered rapidly and became the center trade area of ​​the ancient world.. In the third century BC, it had a major impact on the politics of the East Nakai World against the backdrop of the powerful fleet.. Rhodes is also famous for the "Lords Island Giant", one of the seven mysteries of the world.. About coins
When the three cities of Rhodes build a new capital, they needed a new guardian deity. That is the sun god Helios drawn on the coin table. On the back of the coin is a rose flower that comes from the name of Rhodes.
Interestingly, in the Middle Ages, this coin's sun god Helios was misunderstood as a portrait of Christ, and the rose on the back was not a Rhodes rose but a Sharon rose.. Even today, the scenic "Rose no Hanakai Island" Rhodes Island. It may be interesting to imagine a beautiful rose that bloomed on ancient Rhodes while looking at the coins..
