S28. ANTIQUITY AND MIDDLE AGES 2. COINAGE OF AND IN ANTIOCH ON THE ORONTES

  • Alan Stahl (Princeton University)

Description

Org. and chair: Alan Stahl

Antioch on the Orontes was a center of minting and of coin circulation from the early Hellenistic period through the Crusader era. Much recent work has been done on the nature of minting in Antioch, which maintained parallel imperial and municipal coinages from the Seleucid through the Roman periods. Renewed work on the Princeton-led excavations of the 1930s and contemporary archaeological exploration in the city have greatly enriched our understanding of coin circulation in Antioch over the millennium-and-a-half from 300 BCE to 1300 CE. The four papers in this session will integrate existing scholarship with new research to explore Antioch as a mint and as a site for coin finds.
