The Kuretes share some of the attributes of the Korybantes, dancing divinities associated with the worship of Kybele, but their specific role in Greek mythology was to serve as the protectors of the infant Zeus while he was hidden away on Crete, safe from his jealous father Kronos. Their militant dancing, accompanied by the clashing of swords on shields, drowned out the cries of the infant. The nursing of Zeus, according to certain traditions, was left to the sister nymphs Adrasteia and Ida, who fed Zeus with the the milk of the she-goat Amaltheia (in other traditions Amaltheia is a third nymph).Jun 11, 2011 Rhodes (AD 54-68) AE 38 - Nero302 viewsNero, 54-68 AD.

VF, green patina, metal flaws. Ex Sierra Coll. From RPC II (p. 174): It is difficult to know if 1127 is a coin of the reign of Vespasian or of Titus. The titulature is the same as used on the reverse of of 1126 (of Vespasian), and it could represent an issue made in the reign of Vespasian for his sons. On the other hand, it might perhaps be expected to be a smaller denomination, if that were the case; it is in fact the same denomination as 1126, which slightly strengthens the possibility that it was made during the reign of Titus.”Jun 11, 2011 Bithynia Uncertain (AD 69-79) AE 25 - Titus399 viewsKoinon of Bithynia,Titus, as Caesar, 69-79 AD.
