Chronology
The absolute chronology of the kings of Sidon from the dynasty of Eshmunazar I onward has been much discussed in the literature; traditionally placed in the course of the fifth century BC, inscriptions of this dynasty have been dated back to an earlier period on the basis of numismatic, historical and archaeological evidence. The most complete work addressing the dates of the reigns of these Sidonian kings is by the French historian Josette Elayi who shifted away from the use of biblical chronology. Elayi used all the available documentation of the time and included inscribed Tyrian seals and stamps excavated by the Lebanese archaeologist Maurice Chehab in 1972 from Jal el-Bahr, a neighborhood in the north of Tyre, Шаблон:SfnШаблон:SfnШаблон:SfnШаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn Phoenician inscriptions discovered by the French archaeologist Maurice Dunand in Sidon in 1965,Шаблон:Sfn and the systematic study of Sidonian coins which were the first coins to bear minting dates in antiquity based on the years of reign of the Sidonian kings.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn
Baalshillem I was the first among Sidonian monarchs to mark coins with issuing dates corresponding with the years of his reign as of year 30 which corresponds to 372 BC. Elayi established that Baalshillem I's year of accession was 450 BC and that he reigned until 426 BC.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:SfnШаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn
Historical context
In 539 BC, Phoenicia fell under the Achaemenid rule; it was divided into four vassal kingdoms: Sidon, Tyre, Byblos and Arwad.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn Eshmunazar I, a priest of Astarte and the founder of his namesake dynasty was enthroned King of Sidon around the time of the Achaemenid conquest of the Levant.Шаблон:Sfn During the first phase of Achaemenid rule, Sidon flourished and reclaimed its former standing as Phoenicia's chief city.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn In the mid 5th century BC, Eshmunazar's dynasty was succeeded by that of Baalshillem I; this dynastic turnover coincides with the time by which Sidon began to independently mint its own coinage bearing the images of its reigning kings.Шаблон:Sfn
Epigraphic and numismatic sources
The name of Baalshillem I is known from a votive statue of a "temple boy" offered to Eshmun, the Phoenician god of healing, by the great-grandson of King Ballshillem I, his namesake Ballshillem II. The base of the Baalshillem temple boy statue bears a Phoenician inscription known as KAI 281.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn The inscription reads: Шаблон:Blockquote The statue is of note because its inscription provides the names of four kings of Sidon from the Baalshillem I dynasty.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn The statue also represents the young future king Abdashtart I, who may have been five or six months of age at the time of the dedication of the statue.Шаблон:Sfn
