Commentary


Poids très léger. Normalement, Ptolémée a succédé à son père Juba Ier en 23. Mais en fait, il est associé aux affaires depuis 20 après J.-C. La datation des années régnales devrait donc se faire à partir de cette date. Ce type semble beaucoup plus rare que ne le laissent supposer les ouvrages généraux. Sur cet exemplaire l’année régnale est difficile à interpréter. C’est normalement l’an I (20-21) mais le flan est court et le type est aussi connu pour l’an 2 (A. 251).

Historical background


MAURETANIA - MAURETANIAN KINGDOM - PTOLEMAEUS

(20-40 AD)

Ptolemy is the son of Juba II and Cleopatra Selene. He is therefore the grandson of Juba I and Marc-Antoine and Cleopatra. He succeeded his father in 24 AD. He was also the cousin of Caligula who finally had him assassinated in 40 AD and annexed his kingdom, transforming it into a province..
