obv. Head of Athena right, wearing helmet with large crest
rev. Forepart of Pegasos right, OPONTA above, in incuse square
Orontes is very often mentioned in connection with things Persian between 401 and 349 BC thus he faced the Ten Thousand Greeks at their withdrawal across Armenia to the Black Sea, especially at the river Centrites, which formed the frontier between the Carduchians and the Armenians. In 386/5 BC he was the chief of the Persian infantry in the war against the Cyprian king Euagoras. After having wrongfully accused the commander of the navy, his fellow-satrap Tiribazus, who then was taken prisoner and sent to the royal court but was finally acquitted and reinstalled, Orontes had made peace in a form which was advantageous for Euagoras and therefore was not accepted by the king. Owing to these circumstances he fell from favor with the king. In later years (after 362/1 BC) this same Orontes was ″satrap of Mysia″ (rather, the subordinate governor of some coastal province) and the leader of the revolting satraps of Asia Minor, for which position he was best fitting because of his noble birth, his kinship with the king, and not least his deep-rooted hatred of the king. Misled by his love of power and fraud (as in the Cyprian War before), he betrayed his fellow satraps to the king. But he revolted a second time, probably owing to his dissatisfaction with the king′s rewards, and launched several attacks, which were continued round 354/3 BC in the reign of the new king Artaxerxes III Ochus. During that time he also conquered and occupied the town of Pergamum, but finally he must have become reconciled with the king, since this Pergamene inscription goes on to say that he gave back the town to the king and died then, supposedly in 344 BC. In 349/8 he was honored by a decree of the Athenians with the civic rights and a golden wreath. BMC pag.326,15 (Ionia) | SNG.Copenhagen- | SNG. von Aulock-
