R. Bouchon, L’ère d’Auguste: ébauche d’une histoire politique de la Thessalie sous Auguste, BCH 132 (2008), pp. 427-71, demonstrates with solid arguments that the ‘Augustan era’ usedby Thessalians was not an Aktian one, but was adopted ony in AD 10/11. Accordingly, theemission struck by Megalokles on which the Thessalians are styled ΣΕΒΑΣΤΗΟΙ (RPC Ι,1428), should date from the very end of Augustus' reign, from AD 10/11 onwards.

Doyen (ed.), Etalons monétaires et mesures pondérales entre la Grèce et l’Italie (Louvain-la-Neuve,2017), pp. 141-64.
