| Summary: | The paper analyzes the iconography of the images on the seals and coins of
the Byzantine Doukas dynasty (1059-1078). It points to the iconographic
motifs the Doukas emperors introduced or reintroduced into Byzantine
sphragistics and numismatics. What is especially highlighted is the power of
the Byzantine imperial ideology of the divine origin of emperorship which
played a prominent role in the iconography of the imperial seals and coins of
the Doukas dynasty. [Projekat Ministarstva nauke Republike Srbije, br.
