| Abstract:
Simonnetta questions Gutschmid's reading of the cuneiform tablets, first published in the 1880s, and the dating offered for Artabanus II, Gotarzes I and Orodes I. The evidence available for the arrangement and attribution of the Arsacid coins issued between 90 and 57 B.C. is revised by a reappraisal of the historical sources and especially of a new translation of some cuneiform documents. Two hoards of Parthian drachms and Syrian and Cappadocian coins are also briefly described. A new arrangement of the chronology, including the suggestion that a ruler of unknown name ruled Parthia after Gotarzes I and Orodes I and previous to Sinatruces, is proposed. While most traditional attributions appear to be warranted, part of the coins traditionally attributed to Phraates III as well as those formerly attributed by Wroth to "Artabanus II" and the "Unknown King" require new attributions.

| Abstract:
A new chronology for the Parthian coinage at Susa is proposed. Includes bibliography. [Sara Sorda] A. Simonetta's new assignment of the Parthian coinages between Mithradates II and Orodes II, based on historical sources as well as numismatic methodology, mentions Pacorus as well as a supposed Vonones I, who presumably ruled c. 78-76 B.C.

| Numismatica, 1949, vol. 15, no. 1-6, p. 37-46. | ||
| Abstract: A discussion of the evidence which a study of his coins, particularly the fine series of dated tetradrachms, can contribute to our hitherto sketchy knowledge of the reign of the Parthian king Phraates IV. Phraates' defeat of Antony and later friendly relations with Augustus merited him mention by Roman historians, but their facts are at variance and obscured by traditional ideas about Parthians in general. A tabulated study of Phraates' coins has enabled the authors to establish accurate dates and what must be a fairly certain historical outline of his reign. (NumLit) See translation by H. A.

| Abstract:
English, French and German summaries. Discussion of the Parthian "Dark Age". Notwithstanding the characteristic typology of Mithradates II, a hitherto unknown tetradrachm in the author's collection should not be attributed to him. The curious legend indicates it is the issue of an unknown sovereign who immediately succeeded Mithradates. A different order in the succession of Parthian kings between 90 and 70 B.C. is proposed; the various emissions have also to be rearranged. [Sara Sorda] | ||

| Abstract: French and German summaries. David Sellwood's chronology (in an article in press) of Parthian kings in the "dark age" is the starting point for a regrouping of coins and rulers in the first half of the first century B.C. [Hansjörg Bloesch] | ||

| Abstract: It is difficult to place chronologically a coin with obv.: bust of the king with coiffure similar to that of his predecessors and rev.: Apollo on omphallos, with a palm branch to r., the legend BASILEUS ARSAKOU, and a monogram in the exergue. [Sara Sorda] Simonetta publishes a tetradrachm with the portrait of Artabanus I (c. 127-123 B.C.) on the obverse. The reverse type, Apollo seated on an omphalos, and a monogram connect the new coin with an issue of Phraates II (Sellwood 1971, 14/1), minted at Susa. [Mørkholm, "Greece to India", 1979] | ||

| Abstract:
The monogram STR on Parthian drachms is an abbreviation of STRATEIA and indicates the series was struck at a mint which accompanied a large military expedition and limited its activity to silver. [Sara Sorda] Simonetta publishes a tetradrachm of Artabanus I struck in Susa. | ||

| Abstract:
Also cited as RIN, 76, 1976. In English, with French and German summaries. Treats Phraates IV (38-2 B.C.), and Titidates II (c. 27 B.C.) [current thought, Tiridates I, 29-27 B.C.] The tetradrachms of Seleucid era 284 with portrait without wart, all the tetradrachms of 285 and those of 286 without wart and with legends AUTOKRATOROS and FILOPWMAIOU should be attributed to Titidates II. | ||

| Abstract:
Also cited as NC, 138, 1978. The author has reassigned a tetradrachm issue previously given to Orodes II to Pacorus I, Orodes' son and co-regent. [Houghton, "Syria and the East", 1986, p. 194.] Imperfectly known tetradrachms of Orodes II described were coined to commemorate the conquest of Gaza by his son Pacorus I in 40 B.C. It is now possible to ascribe to Pacorus some rare tetradrachms with KTISTHS (until now thought to belong to the first coins of Orodes) issued probably in 40 B.C. won his war with Syria and Palestine.

Wolski ("Les Parthes et leur attitude envers le monde gréco-romaine" in Assimilation et résistance à la culture gréco-romaine [Travaux du VIe Congrès International d'Etudes Classiques, Madrid, 1974]), the author proposes that the Parthians kept alive Greek cultural and artistic traditions while rejecting the influence of the Romans.

| Abstract: The denominations of most Parthian bronze coins are virtually indistinguishable, but B. Simonetta has noted those exceptional series or instances where marks of value or differences of reverse types make their determination possible. [Houghton, "Syria and the East", 1986, p. 194.] These exceptions include specimens with marks of value at the beginning of the series whose largest denomination must have been a piece of eight chalkoi, as well as a few sequences in which the types of reverses distinguish units from multiples.
