These limited-edition rings feature ancient coins from Miletos in the ancient region of Ionia. Miletus (Ancient Greek: Μίλητος, romanized: Mílētos) was an influential ancient Greek city on the western coast of Anatolia, near the mouth of the Maeander River in present day Turkey. Renowned in antiquity for its wealth, maritime power, and extensive network of colonies, Miletus was a major center of trade, culture, and innovation from the Bronze Age through the Roman period. The city played a foundational role in the development of early Greek philosophy and science, serving as the home of the Milesian school with thinkers such as Thales, Anaximander, & Anaximenes. Before the focus shifted to Athens, Miletus was the place to be! *Source: Wikipedia, & you can read more about Miletus here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miletus This ancient currency bears a sunburst-flower motif, likely an homage to Apollo, who was the patron god of Miletus... & the god of youth & music!
