They are the only coins related to the Bible minted by Greek cities; they were struck in the first half of the III century CE. Reverses of these coins depict Noah’s Ark and they attracted the attention of many scholars. Linking this story with Phrygian Apamea does not seem to be difficult because of the city's hydrology and its nickname Kibotos (the same as Noah's Ark's name in the Septuagint). The problem is that this scene appears on civic coins, with which the entire community, not just the Jewish or Christian inhabitants, identified.plAttribution 3.0 Polandhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/pl/monetynumizmatykanumizmatyka greckaApameaFrygiastarożytnośćikonografiasceny biblijneArka NoegoNoepotopcoinsnumismaticsGreek numismaticsPhrygiaantiquityiconographybiblical scenesNoah's ArkNoahfloodtradycjatraditiontradycja chrześcijańskaChristian traditionArticle
