The Roman province of Egypt (Latin Aegyptus) was established in 30 BC after Octavian (the future emperor Augustus) defeated his rival Mark Antony, deposed his lover Queen Cleopatra VII and annexed the Ptolemaic kingdom of Egypt to the Roman Empire.

This coin was struck to commemorate the defeat of Mark Antony at the Battle of Actium. Laureate heads of Augustus and Agrippa; Reverse: Crocodile right chained to palm branch. The Crocodile represents Egypt being annexed into the Roman Empire.

Was this stone meant to be read by humans, by future generations, or by the sky itself?

Patara’s Nero Baths (near the agora) were built in the AD 60s, making them among the earliest Roman bath complexes known in Anatolia.
After Nero’s death, his name was deliberately erased from the building inscription and replaced with Vespasian’s, turning a public bath into a very public political message.
