314 APPENDIX III. 



two others of the same type and one of Perecle 

 or Limyra, between 37 and 38 grains. 



Two other coins, No. 14 and No. 17, weighing 

 124 and 124 J grains, are intermediate between 

 the two classes above mentioned. 



3. Carian Drachma of 50 ? grains. Six coins, 

 belonging to five types, weigh between 145 and 

 149 grains : if they are tridrachms, they give 

 a drachma of about 50 grains, which would cor- 

 respond very nearly with the coinage of Rhodes, 

 Cos, and some Carian cities which indicate a 

 unit between 50 and 53 grains. The only 

 division which can be referred to them with 

 certainty is a coin without a legend, Fellows, 

 No. 14, probably a drachma weighing 46 grains, of 

 the same type as two others weighing 145 and 149 

 grains. Perhaps, however, instead of establish- 

 ing a separate unit for these coins, we ought to 

 regard them as belonging to the Phoenician 

 system of weights, which offers examples of 

 multiples of great complication. 



It is remarkable that three different standards 

 of weight should be found in the coinage of the 

 same country, but a similar anomaly is found 

 in the Lycian works of art, which show it to 

 have been a sort of frontier country between
