| description | In this paper, 19 Hellenistic and Roman engraved gemstones are discussed, all of which are in the collections of local museums at Aydın and Marmaris in south‑western Turkey. They are significant, as very few gemstones have been published from southern Ionia and from the whole of Caria. Following the listing of the gems in Aydın, the next section describes six gold finger rings and earrings with plain gem or glass settings, as well as a ring which has lost its gem. In addition, a rock‑crystal cabochon, probably of Roman date, from Aydın is illustrated. The final two parts of the paper describe two forgeries and then the bezel of a finger‑ring and a clay bulla, both of which are of Hellenistic date |
