The first coins portraying Greeks, whether living or dead, developed only after the death of Alexander the Great in 323 BC His own coin portraits are therefore posthumous; the coins struck for Alexander during his lifetime in which his features are merged with those of his ancestral hero Heracles cannot be counted as true portraits.
This spectacular coin may commemorate the victory of Dionysius I over the Carthaginian general Himilcon and the deliverance of Syracuse from its Punic siege in 396 BC The reverse of the coin is signed by Euaenetus, one of the most renowned coin designers of antiquity.

 Cyrus The Great - Cyrus the Great   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
He was the son of Cambyses I, a descendant of Achaemenes (Hakhamanish) (flourished 7th century bc), and a member of the Achaemenid dynasty.
When Cyrus became (in about 558 bc) ruler of the Persian district of Anshan, the district was subject to the Medes; five years later he led a rebellion against the Medes that resulted in the capture of King Astyages (reigned about 584 to about 550 bc) and the overthrow (550 bc) of the Median Empire.
Thereafter Cyrus called himself king of Persia and ruled a territory extending from the Halys River in Asia Minor, eastern border of Lydia, to the Babylonian Empire on the south and east.

The fifth-century BC art of Greece established the noble forms and ideal proportions that for centuries have remained the classical standard for Western art.

Boreas was widely venerated in Athens beginning in 480 BC as the force behind the destruction of the invading Persian fleet.

Daniel is also included among the Dead Sea Scrolls (DSS) which date from about 200 BC (the oldest Daniel manuscript, 4Q114, dating from the late 2nd Century BC).
The three kings which succeed Cyrus were Cambyses II (530-521 BC), Smerdis (521 BC) and Darius I (521-485 BC), son of Hystaspes.

 Pottery of Ancient Greece Summary
In fact, by the 5th century BC, pottery had become an industry and pottery painting ceased to be an important art form of ancient Greece.
The fully mature fl-figure technique, with added red and white details and incising for outlines and details, originated in Corinth during the early 7th century BC and was introduced into Attica about a generation later; it flourished until the end of the 6th century BC.
The red-figure technique, invented in about 530 BC, reversed this tradition, with the pots being painted fl and the figures painted in red.

 1.4.1 The Achaemenid Empire
The Persian Empire struck coins with Lydian types until 510, when the "archer" type  characterizing Achaemenid coinage was introduced.
Over nearly two centuries their archaic types hardly changed and, as they bear no legends, attribution by reign can sometimes be difficult.
After Alexander conquered the Persian Empire in 330 bc, Persians used Greek coins - first Alexander's imperial coinage, then the royal Seleukid coinage that succeeded it.
