Oxbow Books Iron Age and Roman Coin Hoards in Britain
Book SynopsisMore coin hoards have been recorded from Roman Britain than from any other province of the Empire. This comprehensive and lavishly illustrated volume provides a survey of over 3260 hoards of Iron Age and Roman coins found in England and Wales with a detailed analysis and discussion.Theories of hoarding and deposition and examined, national and regional patterns in the landscape settings of coin hoards presented, together with an analysis of those hoards whose findspots were surveyed and of those hoards found in archaeological excavations. It also includes an unprecedented examination of the containers in which coin hoards were buried and the objects found with them. The patterns of hoarding in Britain from the late 2nd century BC to the 5th century AD are discussed. The volume also provides a survey of Britain in the 3rd century AD, as a peak of over 700 hoards are known from the period from AD 253–296. This has been a particular focus of the project which has been a collaborative research project between the University of Leicester and the British Museum funded by the AHRC. The aim has been to understand the reasons behind the burial and non-recovery of these finds. A comprehensive online database (https://finds.org.uk/database) underpins the project, which also undertook a comprehensive GIS analysis of all the hoards and field surveys of a sample of them.Trade ReviewThe online database is here analysed with informative maps, diagrams and tables, seeking answers to what, when, where and why. * British Archaeology *Filled with maps, graphs, and imagies of both spectacular and not-so-spectacular hoards, this is clearly an ambitious piece of work and should be considerd essential reading for anyone interested in the phenomenon. * Current Archaeology *Altogether the work is an exceptional illustration of the successes that digital approaches to the ancient world can produce. Bland, Chadwick, Ghey, and Haselgrove deserve the highest praise for their contributions to hoard studies and for advancing understanding of the complexities of Iron Age and Roman Britain. * Bryn Mawr Classical Review *The presentation is excellent and the treatment of the subject is comprehensive and exhaustive...sets a model for other studies from other periods and for this alone the team who have produced this volume are to be thanked and congratulated. * Archaeologia Cambrensis - Cambrian Archaeological Association *Table of ContentsForeword 1.

Archaeopress The Mysterious Spheres on Greek and Roman Ancient
Book SynopsisThis book is not a standard coin catalogue, but it focuses on quantities and percentages of the mysterious 5950 sphere images on Roman (76BC-AD 476) coin reverses, and a few Greek coins. This research identifies which Emperors, Deities and Personifications are most frequently shown with a sphere, during reigns and eras, and determines the political, cultural, religious and propaganda trends associated with the coin sphere images, and provides a variety of new findings. The book has 257 illustrations of spheres shown on Roman and a few Greek coins, as well as 109 images of statues, reliefs, mosaics, and other ancient art. Consider that the ancient Greeks (620 BC-30 BC) had the first astronomers in Europe (influenced by Egyptian and Babylonian astronomy) who created the celestial and terrestrial sphere theories, including the popular geocentric theory (Earth is the centre of the Universe). But at that time the Greeks very rarely showed sphere images on their coins – far less than 1%! In comparison, the later Romans during 76 BCAD 476 issued coin reverse sphere types as 15% of their total coin types, and therefore millions of these important coin sphere types were minted. The author explores Constantine’s BEATA TRANQVILLITAS Sphere Reverses (AD 321 – 324) and offers a new interpretation of Christian Trinity symbolism that opposes Arianism. Starting in the late 4th century, the Roman religion began to transfer to Christianity, and coins promoted Emperors holding a Christian cross on a globe or a winged Victory/Angel also holding a globus cruciger. At the end of the book, the Epilogue shows the continuous worldwide use (from 5th to 21st century) of sphere images on coins, reliefs, sculptures, astronomical models, drawings, paintings and large monuments, and some of them suggest that Imperial Roman sphere coins created a long legacy.Trade Review'This is a welcome and valuable book that certainly will become the definitive standard on the subject of spherical astronomical iconography on ancient Greek and Roman coins.' – Dr Clifford Cunningham (2022): Journal of Astronomical History and Heritage, Vol. 25Table of ContentsChapter 1: Introduction ; Chapter 2: Sun Disk Images in Ancient Cultures ; Chapter 3: Greek Concepts of Celestial and Terrestrial Spheres ; Chapter 4: Early Greek Coins With Few Sphere Symbols (520 BC – 76 BC) ; Chapter 5: Prior Research on Roman Coin Sphere Symbols ; Chapter 6: Astrological/Astronomical Sphere Symbols Move to Rome ; Chapter 7: Winged Victory vs. Sphere Symbols on Roman Coins ; Chapter 8: First Spheres on Late Republican Coinage (76 BC - 31 BC) ; Chapter 9: Spheres Frequent on Roman Imperial Coinage ; Chapter 10: Chronological Trends for Top Coin Sphere Images ; Chapter 11: General Conclusions ; Chapter 12: Appendices ; Bibliography ; Index ; List of Figures and Credits ; Acknowledgements ; About the Author

Archaeopress The Winchester Mint and Coins and Related Finds
Book SynopsisEdited by Martin Biddle with a catalogue of the known coins of the mint by Yvonne Harvey, this volume records and illustrates the minting of silver pennies in Winchester between the reigns of Alfred the Great and Henry III, a period of three and a half centuries. At the Mint, which was situated in the area of the High Street to the east of where the city’s cross now stands, at least 24 million silver pennies (possibly as many as 50 million) were struck. Five and a half thousand survive in museums and collections all over the world. These have been sought out and photographed (some 3200 coins in 6400 images detailing both sides), and minutely catalogued by Yvonne Harvey for this volume. During the period from late in the reign of Alfred to the time of Henry III, dies for striking the coins were produced centrally under royal authority in the most sophisticated system of monetary control at the time in the western world. In this first account of a major English mint to have been made in forty years, a team of leading authorities have studied and analysed the use the Winchester moneyers made of the dies, and together with the size, weight, and the surviving number of coins from each pair of dies, have produced a detailed account of the varying fortunes of the mint over this period. Their results are critical for the economic history of England and the changing status of Winchester over this long period, and provide the richest available source for the history of the name of the city and the personal names of its citizens in the later Anglo-Saxon period.

Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht GmbH & Co KG Geschichte der jüdischen Numismatik - Band 1:
Book SynopsisDass die Juden in der Antike eigene Münzen geprägt haben, ist eine numismatische Evidenz, die heute sehr gut dokumentiert ist. Seit wann wissen wir aber, dass es einmal eine solche antike jüdische Münzprägung gab? Was wussten die Juden der Zeit nach den beiden jüdischen Kriegen gegen Rom (66-70/74 n. und 132-135/136 n.) darüber, als die Staatlichkeit des Volkes Israel zerstört war und die jüdischen Münzen bei den Römern als staatsgefährdendes Revolutionsgeld galten? Wie haben diese Münzen die langen Jahrhunderte der Zerstreuung der Juden in alle Weltteile überlebt? Wann haben die christlichen Gelehrten im westlichen Europa die einstmalige Existenz jüdischer Münzen zur Kenntnis genommen? Ein Weiteres: Seit wann besaßen sowohl Juden wie Christen in der nachtalmudischen Zeit echte jüdische Münzen? Welches waren die Nöte und Interessen, die sowohl hinter der Verbergung der antiken jüdischen Münzen wie auch hinter deren Bewahrung im Wissen standen? Seit wann fand und sammelte man jüdische Münzen und dokumentierte diese in numismatischen Publikationen, sodass sich eine jüdische Sparte innerhalb des weiten Feldes der antiken Numismatik bilden konnte? Und schließlich: Wie wurden reale jüdische Münzen in der Bibelwissenschaft, in der Philologie und in der Geschichtswissenschaft der Antike und besonders des antiken Judentums wissenschaftlich ausgewertet? Erstmals wird hier dieses dramatische Geschick der jüdischen Münzprägungen dargestellt.
