Abstract:

A researcher approaching the multi-lingual coins of the former Kingdom of Arakan (circa 1430-1784) must overcome many challenges. Difficult to read specimens, incorrect translations, poor scholarship and at times deficient photography within the existing treatments, when one can find them, are some of the obstacles encountered. Despite all the recent attention the Rohingya controversy has brought to these coins, studying them can still be productive of new information about Arakan. The objectives of this article are relatively modest, nonetheless. It will focus on a particular series of multi-

Abstract:

The author publishes 82 coins from the 1971 and 1972 excavations at the Royal Road South, Knossos. As would be expected, most of the coins are bronze, and Cretan or late Roman. There are no particular surprises, except for an Alexandrian bronze of Augustus in a hitherto apparently unpublished denomination.

Abstract:

Some new, unlisted types of Samarian coins have appeared recently on the antiquities market. In the present paper I would like to discuss some points concerning one of them, which is especially interesting because of its iconography. The coin appeared on the market in Autumn 2021. Its reverse shows an image of a cavalryman with a spear or a javelin. Unlike the other images of the Iranian cavalrymen depicted on Samarian coins, the exemplar probably shows "the Great King like figure" having long beard and wearing a kidaris. So far, such an image is not only unique in Samarian coinage, but finds

Abstract This article deals with the development of Kushan royal imagery as known from coins in the period between the 1st and the 3rd centuries ad, i.e. from the so-called Heraios series to the coins of Vasudeva. The aim is to challenge the traditional interpretative models which ascribed a crucial role to a Roman contribution, and to highlight instead first the role of the local numismatic tradition, which stretched back to the Graeco-Bactrians, and then the influx of patterns of royal imagery of western Iranian—namely Arsacid Parthian—origin, around the time when Vima Kadphises inaugurated

Abstract:

Although Parthian coins have appealed to a cross-section of ancient coin collectors for centuries, interest seems to have been particularly piqued by the 1993 publication of Fred B. Shore’s Parthian Coins & History: Ten Dragons Against Rome and by the subsequent sale of his collection in December 1995. Coins from the Parthian series present collectors with a number of different areas of potential focus, among them the different mint monograms, the varied representations of the distinctive Parthian tiara, portraits sporting the “royal wart” of the Arsacids, “off” style examples from Parthia

Abstract:

In the morning of 22 November 1286, a group of armed men dressed as monks murdered the Danish king Erik V known from his square-cut coins as “Erik Klipping”. The direct cause of the assassination was king Erik’s unpopular financial policy: he ordered all silver pennings circulating in his realm to be sent back to the royal treasury where they would be cut in order to mint new coins from the clipped parts, and imposed new taxes, too. However, another event made Erik even more famous in Danish history. He was the first king in Denmark who had to sign a royal charter (called “håndfæstning”), in m

Abstract:

Coins have provided specific and concrete markers of official, legitimate political sovereignty since the time of the Roman Empire. Europe's female monarchs of the old regime, a group that has not been much studied, used numismatics in effective ways to enhance their official sovereignty. Throughout the entire period, most royal heiresses were married, and despite a persistent and widely circulated literature that preached wifely subservience, their coins (and, later, their medals) suggest their full political autonomy.

From 1716 to 1718, Sweden experienced a shock of liquidity when the absolutist regime of Charles XII issued large amounts of fiat coins (mynttecken) in order to finance the Great Northern War. After the death of the king in November 1718, the new parliamentary regime decided to partially default on the coins. In international literature, this episode is largely unknown, and in Swedish historiography, scholars have often claimed that the country's currency collapsed in hyperinflation.

The motif of the horned horse on the coins of Seleucus I is characteristic for the coinage of the first Seleucid king. Its meaning is still unclear in spite of many attempts to interpret it. The horned horse is associated with Dionysos, or Alexander the Great. Most of the coins featuring this motif were minted in the Iranian part of the empire of Seleucus I and this fact suggests that it should be interpreted in the context of Iranian culture in which a horse featured significantly and could symbolize royal power and authority.

Like his predecessors, he also tried to install a Safavid prince at Tehran as a puppet ruler. However, following his official coronation and his conquest of Iran, he changed the format of his royal edicts and issued extraordinarily heavy gold coins.

Portraits were the standard obverse types of Roman imperial coins. Up to the mid-1st century AD, gender-specific morphological differences in the numismatic portraiture of emperors and their family members are in evidence. There were invariably portrait heads for the rulers, but draped portrait busts for imperial ladies. In this paper, the differences are analysed in detail and possible explanations are discussed. The imperial bust types are set in the context not only of Hellenistic royal coinages, but also of the heads and busts of gods and mortals appearing on Roman Republican coins –

This paper contests the claim that the certain attributes depicted with Wēś should not be construed as belonging to the Indian god Śiva or the Greek god Heracles.

The article deals with the coins of the Duke and King Ladislaus II (I) of Bohemia, as elements of display of power. The denar around which the lecture focuses on is the so-called coronation denar of King Vladislav. Minted probably in 1158 or not much later, it was intended to legitimise the royal power of this Premyslid over Bohemia. This attribution allows for a new interpretation of the iconography on the obverse of this coin. The throning figure is not necessarily identified with Frederick Barbarossa, it could be a figure/symbol embodying sacred, imperial power.

The preserved fragments of poetry dedicated to Alexander I seem to speak rather in favor of his interest in the Trojan myth.

Abstract:

الملخص: امتد العصر الصفوي منذ أوائل القرن السادس عشر الميلادي (10هـ) حتى أوائل القرن الثامن عشر الميلادي (12هـ)، ويُعد من أزهى فترات التاريخ الإيراني الإسلامي، إذ ازدهرت فيه الثقافة، والتجارة والاقتصاد، والفنون. ومن بين ملامح هذا الازدهار كان تطوير نظام مالي متين استند إلى سك العملات الذهبية والفضية. فكانت النقود الصفوية، كالعملات الذهبية المعروفة باسم "أشرفي" والعملات الفضية التي سميت بـ"عباسي" أو "شاهنشاهي"، عكست التطور الاقتصادي والتجاري للدولة، كما عبّرت عن الهوية الثقافية والدينية، إذ حملت النقوش الدينية وعبارات تمجيد أئمة أهل البيت (ع) لتأكيد الهوية الشيعية للدولة. ولم تعكس العملات الذهب

Abstract:

This book offers a refreshing approach to the history of Lotharingia during the brief reign of Lothar II (855–869). Rather than providing a narrative account of Lothar II’s turbulent tenure, Charles West presents annotated translations of twenty-two primary sources related in one way or another to the political culture of his age. These range from royal charters, papal and episcopal letters, and aristocratic wills to material culture, like coins and luxury manuscripts. Accompanying each translation is a learned and lucid introduction that situates the source in its political and cultural conte

Abstract:

This article examines the visual strategies employed in the early modern period by a dynasty ruling a smaller state, the Duchy of Lorraine, to survive in the face of expansion by larger neighbours (notably France). The central argument posits that in order to be treated as fully royal (and therefore with inherent rights to exist independently, as full members of the society of princes), princes like the dukes of Lorraine had to appear as royal in their visual representation. The article therefore looks at different examples of selfrepresentation produced by the dynasty over time, including gen

AbstractThe introduction of European heraldry in the Americas created a special class of material culture and iconography that circulated widely on coins, paper, architecture, and textiles. More interestingly, its appropriation and use by indigenous communities has not received proper archaeological attention. In this paper I analyze the adoption of royal Spanish heraldry by Nahua political systems (altepetl) during the Colonial period, from the sixteenth to the eighteenth centuries. My primary goal is to understand the context, meaning, and social practices for three late colonial banners fro

Abstract:

The paper analyses the iconography and archaeology of the Seleucid ‘Nike crowning trophy’ coin type. This coin type features a deified male portrait (referred to as the ‘person wearing helmet’) on the obverse and Nike, crowning a trophy, on the reverse. It was minted for a brief period in the late 4th century BC at the Susa mint. Despite being locally circulated with a relatively limited volume of issues, this motif significantly contributed to the visual representation of the royal power of Seleucus. One of the main challenges in interpreting this coin type is identifying the helmeted head. T

В статье проводится анализ нарративного потенциала царского монетного портрета эпохи эллинизма. В отличие от портретов в скульптуре, на мозаиках и фресках, монетный портрет занимает в системе классического искусствоведения подчиненное положение и чаще служит в качестве вспомогательного средства для идентификации портретов в других изобразительных жанрах. Между тем появление и тиражирование монетного портрета, снабженного индивидуальными чертами, в период раннего эллинизма свидетельствует о переходе от коллективного (полисного) сознания к индивидуальному (монархическому).

Интерес к монетам этой группы обусловлен тем, что изображение сидящей на троне Афродиты не было свойственно нумизматике Боспорского государства до Савромата II, при котором ее стали чтить как главное божество местного пантеона. Немаловажно и то, что правее и левее фигуры божества оттиснуты метки эмиссионных центров — как столичного, так и периферийных, расположенных в европейской и в восточной частях государства. Там монеты оформляли с учетом местных представлений о символике Афродиты. Следовательно, в тот период единой идеологии на Боспоре не существовало, что свидетельствует об ослаблении ца

AbstractSilphium is the source of Cyrene's wealth. It is possible that the first colonists who landed in Cyrenaica realized the many qualities of the plant and decided at once to take advantage of it. Maybe, the Minoans knew about it too, as Sir Arthur Evans found some inscribed tablets from Cnossos with symbols very like those represented on later Cyrenaican coins.Silphium is represented on coins possibly as the symbol of Cyrenaica and a branch of silphium is also shown held by a female divinity in clay statuettes.

This paper offers the first ever discussion of all extant images of Abdissar, Monobazos I and ’tlw (Attalos), Kings of Adiabene. In analysing the numismatic and sculptural data, a few conclusions on the historical context are suggested. First, it is argued that stylistic features of the coinage of Abdissar suggest a date in the first half of the second centuryb.c.e., and this dating bears upon the question of the historical origin of the Kingdom of Adiabene. Adiabene originated as one of many “post-Seleucid” states which arose in the Near East when the Seleucid kingdom started to crumble, befo

AbstractThis paper is a study on the so-called “spread wings”—a particular element of the Sasanian art that is attested also in other regions of the Persian Empire in Late Antiquity, including the western coast of the Persian Gulf and the Caucasus. The spread wings can be observed on Sasanian coins above the royal crowns, which are considered specific for every Sasanian sovereign, supporting astronomical elements, like the crescent, star, and, possibly, the sun. The Arabs and the peoples of the Caucasus who adopted Christianity used the spread wings element as a pedestal for the cross. In Arme
