Cilicia, Kelenderis AR Stater. Circa 450-400 BC. Nude ephebe left, holding whip and dismounting from horse at the gallop in a calpe or anadates race, Π below / KEΛE, goat crouching left, head to right. SNG Levante 19; SNG von Aulock 5623; SNG France 51. 10.73g, 21mm, 2h. Lustrous, Extremely Fine. The anabates or calpe ('dismounter') race was a late introduction to the Olympics, in which the rider dismounted for the last stretch and ran beside the horse. Its origin was probably a military exercise since speed and agility were essential for a horseman in battle, and it is still included in modern gymkhanas (For elucidation, cf. S. Swaddling, The Ancient Olympic Games, London 2004, p. 89).
