Download or read book The Coinage of the Phoenician City of Tyre in the Persian Period 5th 4th Cent BCE written by Josette Elayi and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 640 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is the long-awaited corpus on Tyrian coinage in the Persian period (4th-5th cent. BCE), containing a chronological catalogue of 1,814 silver and bronze coins. Besides the usual numismatic analysis (monetary production, volume of emissions, manufacturing techniques and processes...), the authors have also studied the monetary inscriptions and iconography. They focused on using their own statistical data, reaching many interesting metrological conclusions. The Tyrian workshop was innovative, in that around 388 BCE it inaugurated a yearly dating system. This book is also an important historical volume on Tyre and on the Persians' western policy, based on the results of a numismatic analysis, combined with all the other sources: in particular, the city's significant difficulties in the first part of the 4th cent. and its prosperity during the reign of King Ozmilk (347-333/2), in stark contrast to the decay of Sidon at that time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Dated Alexander Coinage of Sidon and Ake It may be said, without fear of contradiction, that of all the many coins bearing the name and types of Alexander the Great, by far the most important to us are those struck in the two Phoenician cities of Sidon and Ake. This is not because these two coinages are particularly large, or of unusually fine style, or of any considerable importance in ancient times. Compared to certain other Alexander mints of this period (such as Pella, Amphipolis, Babylon, and many others) our two mints were relatively unimportant; and, if, on the whole, the artistic level of the Sidonian issues is not bad, at times even quite fine, that of Ake is almost beneath contempt. The great value and interest of these particular coins to us lies in the fact that they, the only ones of all the mass of "Alexanders" struck before the middle of the third century B. C., are actually dated. Aside from the special interest attached to this fact, so unusual in early Greek coinages, they are, for this very reason, of exceptional assistance to us in dating contemporary but undated Alexander issues of neighbouring mints. In studying such "finds" of this period as happen to contain specimens of our coins these absolutely fix the date post quem of the hoard's burial, and often even indicate the actual year in which the deposit occurred. In fact, these two coinages must form the basis of any study of the Alexander issues of the many mints of Cilicia, Phoenicia, Palestine, Babylonia, and Egypt. That this has already been recognized is clearly shown by the fact that more has been written about Alexander's Phoenician mints than about nearly all of his other mints put together. After the successful labors of such eminent numismatists as G. F. Hill, Dr. Jules Rouvier, R. Dussaud and others, the present writer may indeed be accused of needlessly wasting much time and attention on ground which seems to be so thoroughly worked over. It is hoped that an answer to this will be found in the results of the following pages. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
