Aureliopolis in Lydia

Aureliopolis in Lydia (Ancient Greek: Αυρηλιούπολις Λυδίας) is a city in the Roman province of Lydia, previously called Tmolus or in Greek Τμῶλος (Tmolos). It issued coinage under each of these names, and one coin combines both names. In the Synecdemus it appears as Auliou Kome. The name "Aureliopolis" was given in honour of the emperor Marcus Aurelius.[1][2][3]
