	ODRYSIAN Articles Unverifiable material may be challe
		The Odrysian state was the first Thracian kingdom that acquired power in the region, by the unification of many Thracian tribes under a single ruler, King Teres.
		According to the Greek historians Herodotus and Thucydides, a royal dynasty emerged from among the Odrysian tribe in Thrace around the end of the sixth century BC, which came to dominate much of the area and peoples between the Danube and the Aegean for the next century.
		Despite their demise, the period of Odrysian rule was of decisive importance for the future character of south-eastern Europe, under the Roman Empire and beyond.

	American Journal of Archaeology / Article Abstract
		The significance of the formulaic inscriptions recording an Odrysian royal name (i.e., Cotys or Cersebleptes) and a provenance on silver vessels discovered in Thrace has been subject to much discussion.
		This study argues that, while close parallels and precedents for the majority of those vessel shapes can be found in the Achaemenid domain, evidence from the same domain also supplies clues to the possible significance of their texts.
		It is proposed that the origins and meaning of the Odrysian royal name and provenance legends on silverware may be sought in an Achaemenid custom of converting revenues in precious metal into luxury articles marked with a certification of the metal's official quality.

		The coinage of the Odrysian kings of the fifth and fourth centuries is represented mainly by bronze and small silver issues and by its very character does not seem suitable for the payment of large sums of tax by the cities but rather for the evolving internal market.
