Domitian, 13 September 81 - 18 September 96 A.D., Thessalian League
|Thessaly|, |Domitian,| |13| |September| |81| |-| |18| |September| |96| |A.D.,| |Thessalian| |League|, The Thessalian League was a loose confederacy of city-states and tribes in the Thessalian valley in N. Greece. Philip II of Macedon took control of Thessaly in 344 B.C and it remained under Macedonia until the Roman victory in 197 B.C. The league was reestablished in 196 B.C. but had little autonomy after Thessaly became part of the province of Macedonia in 146 B.C. BCD notes, "The League coinage for Domitian must have been quite abundantly struck. It circulated over a wide area, and for a very long time, almost certainly until the reign of Gallienus."
