dc.description.abstract	The ''falconer' on the obverse of a group of Arab-Byzantine coins attributed to the pseudo-Damascus mint derives from a depiction of a 4th-century emperor holding a phoenix-surmounted globe (as does the 'falconer' on Anglo-Saxon sceattas). The seated couple on the obverse of the Arab-Byzantine coins from Scythopolis may have been intended to depict the Tychai of Scythopolis and a second town, probably Gerasa.	en
