Auteure: David Sear

Nombre de pages: 696

Volume II now extends coverage of the Imperial series from Nerva, the 'thirteenth Caesar' and first of the 'Adoptive' emperors, down to the overthrow of the Severan dynasty in 235. It encompasses what may justifiably be termed the 'golden age' of the Roman imperial coinage. The full development of the Augustan system of coin denomination and perfection of the method by which government propaganda was communicated to the citizenry through the medium of coinage both reached their peak during these fourteen decades.

Coin Hoards and Hoarding in the Roman World

Coin Hoards and Hoarding in the Roman World

Auteure: Jerome Mairat , Andrew Wilson , Chris Howgego

Nombre de pages: 369

Coin Hoards and Hoarding in the Roman World presents fourteen chapters from an interdisciplinary group of Roman numismatists, historians, and archaeologists, discussing coin hoarding in the Roman Empire from c. 30 BC to AD 400. The book illustrates the range of research themes being addressed by those connected with the Coin Hoards of the Roman Empire Project, which is creating a database of all known Roman coin hoards from Augustus to AD 400. The volume also reflects the range of the Project's collaborations, with chapters on the use of hoard data to address methodological considerations or monetary history, and coverage of hoards from the west, centre, and east of the Roman Empire, essential to assess methodological issues and interpretations in as broad a context as possible. Chapters on methodology and metrology introduce statistical tools for analysing patterns of hoarding, explore the relationships between monetary reforms and hoarding practices, and address the question of value, emphasizing the need to consider the whole range of precious metal artefacts hoarded. Several chapters present regional studies, from Britain to Egypt, conveying the diversity of hoarding practices ...

Auteure: Collectif

Nombre de pages: 291

Cet ouvrage collectif, issu d'une table ronde organisée à Paris par l'UMR 8210 5AnHiMa), présente une douzaine de communications consacrées à la manière dont étaient payés les soldats de l'armée romaine. Ecrites en français ou en anglais par des historiens, des numismates et des papyrologues, elles abordent différents aspects des rémunérations, en espèce ou en nature, accordées au miles : l'administration et le montant de la solde, les prestations en nature, le numéraire utilisé, les gratifications exceptionnelles, la propagande impériale qui s'exprime à travers les émissions et les images monétaires, depuis les guerres civiles de la fin de la République jusqu'au début de l'Antiquité tardive. L'ouvrage fait en même temps le point des connaissances actuelles mais aussi des questions toujours débattues entre spécialistes. Le lecteur y trouvera au passage une riche bibliographie qui associe les réflexions sur les sources historiques, numismatiques et papyrologues. L'introduction de J. Andreau, et la conclusion, écrite par M. Christol, permettent de replacer cet ensemble de contributions dans l'évolution des recherches actuelles.

Roman History from Coins

Roman History from Coins

Auteure: Michael Grant

Nombre de pages: 132

In this 1968 study, Michael Grant examines the varied ways in which Rome used currency to inform direct or deceive public opinion and also considers results of this exploitation. Cunning historians can read in the coins matters of art politics, religion, economics - even personalities not to be found in surviving books: or if found, can set what the books say against what the coins say. Professor Grant astutely masters his difficult and complex subject matter, producing a brief exposition of it in words which the general reader and specialist alike can understand and profit from. Complemented by a series of half-tone plates, Professor Grant's book is an excellent introduction for students of history to the value of coins as evidence for their subject.

This is seen in the specimens of the Romans ses grave by the types of the obverse; and the constant device of the national type of the prow of a galley on the reverse has, as we have seen, been referred by some to the myth of Saturn. It is very long before a human portrait appears upon the public money. The first instance of one placed upon the coinage of Rome is said to be that of Julius Cffisar (see below, G, No. 1). This, Plutarch tells us, was done by the order of the Senate. The coins which follow, belonging to what is called the Family Series, " usually have on the obverse the head of a divinity, or of a personification, or of a traditional or historical personage, and, on the reverse, a mythological, symbolical, traditional, or historical subject.
