- W3094569941 abstract "Studying the visual culture of a particular kingdom or a dynasty offers some insights into the ethos of that kingdom. This again becomes all the more significant when the rulers belong to an ethnic group whose roots are distant from their actual area of control. Visuals could be used by rulers as a tool for exhibiting power, for highlighting the religious practices of the rulers and the ruled, for the projection of one’s cultural identity and even for seeking legitimation. In the Graeco-Bactrian and Indo-Greek world the most persuasive medium of visual culture was coins. In Bactria the Greeks had wrested power from the Seleukids. The patron deity of the Seleukids was Apollo. When Diodotos I, the first Graeco-Bactrian ruler assumed kingship in Bactria and Sogdiana, he replaced Apollo by none other than the king of the Greek gods, Zeus." @default.
