On the reverse of this coin, Apollonia claimes a Lycian and Thracian heritage. Epigraphic evidence from the vicinity of the town (esp. names on graveyards) confirms the settlement of Lycians and Thracians, although the date of the settlement is unknown. It may have occured as early as during the reign of the first Diadoch kings.
