Learning objectives
The module aims to introduce students to the study of coinage in the ancient world, especially in Greece and Rome, and to learn how to use it as an historical and archaeological source. The main learning goals are: understand the role of coinage in economic, political and cultural history; learn to read, catalogue and contextualise ancient coins, using the subject-specific vocabulary; acquire essential knowledge on the importance of coinage as an iconographic source for the study of ancient art history; know how to clean and recognise coins from archaeological excavations to gather information on the stratigraphy and the settlement history of the site of provenance; learn to use the main bibliographic and informatic tools for the study of coinage.
Prerequisites and basic notions
No prior knowledge of the subject in required, but some basic knowledge of history (mainly Greek and Roman) and of ancient geography (with the aid of a historical atlas) is recommended. The course is designed to attract students with a diverse range of interests and show them how Numismatics can give us a better understanding of different disciplines, especially History, Archaeology and Art History, and help us connect them together.
