Question: Which ancient Lebanese city issued the coins known as shekels, used to pay taxes in the Temple of Jerusalem?

<P0-S0> The Kepner Income Tax is an approach to taxation, suggested in the United States, that would collect on a progressive income tax (with no deductions, credits or exemptions) and an estate tax. <P0-S1>  It would repeal the corporate tax and payroll taxes (including Federal Insurance Contributions Act tax (FICA)). <P0-S2>  All income, from whatever source, would be taxed the same (i.e., whether income from wages, dividends, interest or capital gains). <P0-S3>  The plan was proposed by Hayden Kepner of the law firm Arnall Golden Gregory. <P0-S4>  Kepner states that such a tax system would be transparent, easily understandable, could fit on a post-card, and everyone who earns an income would pay taxes. <P0-S5>  The plan would expand the tax base and he suggests that it would have an incentive to keep federal spending at modest levels (under our current system, approximately 50% pay no income taxes and may not have the incentive to try to keep federal spending in control). <P0-S6>  The personal income tax would be made up of three progressive rates: 15%, 25%, and 35% (locked together to prevent raising of one rate without raising the others). <P0-S7>  The estate tax would apply an annual wealth tax of 1-2%, which would be similar to property taxes currently administered at the state level, but would include all property (i.e., stocks, bonds, real property) above a threshold amount. <SEP> <P1-S0>  There were approximately 117,000 inhabitants in 2003. <P1-S1>  However, the government of Lebanon has released only rough estimates of population numbers since 1932, so an accurate statistical accounting is not possible. <P1-S2>  Tyre juts out from the coast of the Mediterranean and is located about 80 km south of Beirut. <P1-S3>  The name of the city means "rock" after the rocky formation on which the town was originally built. <P1-S4> Tyre (Arabic: صور‎ ‎ , "Ṣūr"; Phoenician: 𐤑𐤅𐤓 , "Ṣur"; <a href="Hebrew%20language">Hebrew</a>: צוֹר‎ , "Tsor"; <a href="Tiberian%20Hebrew">Tiberian Hebrew</a> , "Ṣōr"; <a href="Akkadian%20language">Akkadian</a>: , "Ṣurru"; <a href="Ancient%20Greek">Greek</a>: Τύρος, "Týros"; <a href="Turkish%20language">Turkish</a>: "Sur" ; <a href="Latin%20language">Latin</a>: "Tyrus" , Armenian Տիր [Dir]), sometimes <a href="romanization">romanized</a> as Sour, is a city in the <a href="South%20Governorate">South Governorate</a> of <a href="Lebanon">Lebanon</a>. <P1-S5>  The adjective for Tyre is "Tyrian", and the inhabitants are "Tyrians". <SEP> <P2-S0> Commemorative coins are coins that were issued to commemorate some particular event or issue. <P2-S1>  Most world commemorative coins were issued from the 1960s onward, although there are numerous examples of commemorative coins of earlier date. <P2-S2>  Such coins have a distinct design with reference to the occasion on which they were issued. <P2-S3>  Many coins of this category serve as collectors items only, although some countries are also issuing commemorative coins for regular circulation. <P2-S4>  Vast numbers of thematic coins are continuously being issued, highlighting ancient monuments or sites, historical personalities, endangered species etc. <P2-S5>  While such thematic coins may or may not commemorate any particular event or jubilee, the distinction between commemorative coins and thematic coins is often blurred or ignored. <SEP> <P3-S0> Tyrian shekels, tetradrachms, or tetradrachmas were coins of Tyre, which in the Roman Empire took on an unusual role as the medium of payment for the Temple tax in Jerusalem, and subsequently gained notoriety as a likely mode of payment for Judas Iscariot.
