| description | Coinage materialised empire under Rome in many ways. The topic is
approached here under four headings. An empire of coinages looks at the
evolving structure of coinage within the empire and the extent to which
imperial forms replaced local or regional forms. An empire of money
explores how money was used and controlled within the empire. An
empire of monuments examines the Roman attitude to coins as circulating
monuments, how imperial power was presented on the regularly changing
coin types, and whether the imperial ‘messages’ on coins were targeted.
Finally, The archaeology of coinage outlines some of the current debates
about how to interpret coin finds in the archaeological record throughout
the empire. |
