Syracuse was a city-state in Sicily founded by Ancient Greek Corinthians and Teneans. Allied with Sparta and Corinth, Syracuse soon exerted influence over Southern Italy’s coasts - notably equaling Athens in size during the fifth century BCE. Likely due to the city’s proximity to the sea, its fishing port, and the high status of octopus as a delicacy, the octopus was featured on ancient Sicilian coinage.
