001o. OctaviaOctavia was the elder sister of Octavian and due to a political marriage, the fourth wife of Marc Antony. She married him in 40 BC. After his death, she raised not only her children by him, but also his children by Cleopatra VII. She was the great-grandmother of the Emperor Caligula and Empress Agrippina the Younger, maternal grandmother of the Emperor Claudius, and paternal great-grandmother and maternal great-great-grandmother of the Emperor Nero. She died in 11 BC.

Caligula’s sister

Klose XXVIII, 27 (Vs4/Rs10); RPC I 2472; SNG Cop 1343; SNGvA 2202; BMC Ionia p. 269, 272

According to Suetonius’ salacious account: Germanicus had married Agrippina the Elder, daughter of Marcus Agrippa and Julia the Elder, and she had borne him nine children. Two died in infancy, another in early childhood. . . .

The other children survived their father: three girls, Agrippina the Younger, Drusilla and Livilla, born in successive years; and three boys, Nero, Drusus, and Gaius Caesar (Caligula). . . . [Caligula] habitually committed incest with each of his three sisters, seating them in turn below him at large banquets while his wife reclined above. It is believed that he violated Drusilla’s virginity while a minor, and been caught in bed with her by his grandmother Antonia, in whose household they were jointly raised. Later, when Drusilla was married to Lucius Cassius Longinus, an ex-consul, he took her from him and openly treated her as his lawful married wife. When he fell ill he made her heir to his estate and the throne.

When Drusilla died (in 38AD) he declared a period of public mourning during which it was a capital offense to laugh, or bathe, or to dine with parents, spouse or children. Caligula himself was so overcome with grief that he fled the City in the middle of the night, and travelled through Campania, and on to Syracuse, returning again with the same degree of haste, and without cutting his hair or shaving. From that time forwards whenever he took an important oath, even in public or in front of the army, he always swore by Drusilla’s divinity.

Ex-Numisantique

This series of Cistophori from Asia commemorates the marriage of Antony and Octavia and celebrate's Antony's divine status in the east as the "New Dionysus" which was bestowed on him when he arrived in Ephesus in 41 BC. Antony's titulature of "Imperator and Consul designate for the second and third times" fixes the period of issue to the latter part of 39 BC after the Pact of Misenum in July and before Antony's second Imperatorial acclamation in the winter of 39-38BC

Rev. laureate head of Aretas VI left , Nabataean date ( Shnt ///~) year 8 .
21mm, 6.9 grams

This coin shows in one side Augustus and the other side a Nabataean king with Nabatean script in front of his head ( Shnt ///~) dated to the eighth year of the reign of King Aretas IV, about 1 BC-1 AD , which is four years after the death of the Herodian King Herod the Great in 4 BC. Augustus relied on his friend Herod for the affairs of the East, and after the death of Herod , his kingdom was divided among his three sons, which led to the weakness of the strongest ally of Emperor Augustus.
This coin was wrongly described by RPC I 5419; SNG Hunterian 4983 as unknown mint from Syria or Zenodorus at Chalcis for unknown king.

Baal, here as Zeus-Heliopolites, was the highest god in the Syrian pantheon. Originally called Hadad he was worshipped in the monumental temple of Heliopolis (Baalbek). Actually Hadad holds a whip, grain-ears and a thunderbolt. With Nike and eagle in his hand we see the usual equalization with Zeus.
