Readers may be interested in several recent (2014-15 and ongoing) articles by Gerald Finkielsztejn on the lead
weights of Syria-Phoenicia in the Hellenistic to early
Roman period.
They are available on Academia and list most of the known
weights, arranged by city, together a full account of the various
weight standards. The main standards are some of the usual suspects from Tekin's book on the Aegean cities, with minas of 460, 510, 560 and 650 gm, the last being the Mina = double
litra also featuring at
Athens and elsewhere from the late 2nd century B.C. onwards.
The two main articles (on
Syria and
Phoenicia) are in Englsh, but there is also a useful article in
French which summarises the other two plus the southern
Levant, with pictures of the various
standard types. This is worth translating with
Google, although note that etalon (
standard) becomes stallion,
shekel becomes century (or island) and the Phoenician letter
tet becomes
head (naturally).
One point I found particularly interesting concerns the odd-looking
symbols on the
weights inscribed in Phoenician characters (like
Hendin 278 and 282) which Elayi & Elayi describe simply as "balances" (
type A and B). According to Finkielsztejn these
symbols are actually
monograms of the adjacent cities of Marathos and Arados respectively, with
Hendin 278 and 282 coming from Arados, like the mina from the Louvre shown below, while this one in the
BNF is from Marathos:
