The town minted its own coin of which many examples exist today. In 17AD the city was hit by a earthquake and was assisted withrelefi from Tiberius.

There is debate, based on a line in Tacitus, over whether Mostene was a Macedonian Colony. Cranmer argues for the Macedonian ethnos while Getzel M. Cohen argues for a native Lydian population.

Mostene was also the site of a Bishopric. The diocese belonged to the ecclesiastical province of Sardis and remains a titular see of the Roman Catholic Church to this day . The diocese was suffragan of the ecclesiastical province of Sardis under Patriarchate of Constantinople.
