Putting an emphasis on dynastic integrity and continuity –&lt;br&gt;derived from the model of their divine predecessors– the kings of the Hellenistic&lt;br&gt;period (and particularly so the Ptolemies of Egypt) are shown next to their consorts&lt;br&gt;as guarantors for the production of lawful heirs. As their divine model –devised,&lt;br&gt;evidently, by themselves in anticipation of the symbolism they wished to put forward–&lt;br&gt;they most commonly used Sarapis and Isis, a couple known to us from coins, seals&lt;br&gt;and other such portable media, as well as a remote counterpart in the face of Zeus&lt;br&gt;and Dione, a divine couple known from the coins and seals of Epirus.&lt;br&gt;The emblematic value of coins or jewels employed as seals, such as engraved&lt;br&gt;gemstones and signet rings, stresses the symbolism of the jugate scheme, rendering&lt;br&gt;the image into an agent for Hellenistic kingship ideology. The type’s adoption by&lt;br&gt;Roman Imperial couples strengthened its ideological content and guaranteed its&lt;br&gt;survival well into modernity.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
