商品簡介
By hoard, scholars mean at least two coins, or at least one coin and another object of value, that seem to have been deliberately buried or lost together. They include hoards that have been added to over time. Christiansen examines what the hoard evidence from Roman Egypt can reveal about the use of coins as money in Egypt as a Roman province from the conquest by Augustus in 30 BC to Diocletian's currency reform in AD 296. Some of his chapters look at particular hoards or locations, and others at historical events or periods. Distributed in the US by the David Brown Book Company.
