Abstract:
The tamga signs images and titles engraved on coins represent symbols of ruling dynasties and the states they had founded and were as-sociated both with the territory in which they ruled and with their origin (ethnicity). In this regard, a particular interest is the caused by Old Tur-kic tamgas and titles (“Qaghan”, “Yabghu”, “Tegin”, “Tarkhan”) available on the Pre-Islamic Turkic coins of Tokharistan region (Southern Uzbekistan – Southern Tadjikistan – Northern Afghanistan) with Sogdian scripts. On the early medieval coins of Chach related to the Western Turkic Qaghan-ate (568–740), there are four types of tamgas – a lyre-shaped one with its varieties, a tamga in the form of two crossed swords, an anchor-form tamga and the diamond-form one, and the fact comes under notice that similar tamgas were engraved on the coins of the Northern Tokharistan of the same epoch. Appearance of these tamgas and titles on the territory of Chach and Tokharistan in the Early Middle Ages is directly related to poli- tical activities of the Western Turkic Qaghanate and ethno-cultural proces- ses which were taking place in Central Asia.

Abstract:
Ancient coins are ubiquitous items used by archaeologists, along with several types of artifacts, for purposes of relative dating when excavating at ancient sites. Furthermore, coins play an important role in gaining a better understanding the cultural milieu of the first centuries of the Common Era, the period into which events and writing of the New Testament fit. Some archaeologists are also numismatists, that is, specialists in ancient coins. In writing this article the author has drawn upon his own years of work as a field archaeologist and numismatist in Israel. This survey introduces the reader to the subject of ancient Roman Imperial coins, Roman Provincial coins and coins minted in ancient Palestine specifically for use by the Jewish populace. Examples of the importance of the coins as both official, and unofficial, propaganda (as is the case with Jewish coins of the First Revolt of the Jews against Rome, 66–70 CE) are discussed. There is an analysis of the coins that circulated in Palestine and the eastern Roman provinces into which early Christianity spread. Special attention is given to those coins specifically mentioned in the New Testament. Ethical issues concerning the removal of coins from ancient sites and the collecting of them by individuals are also introduced. Finally, possibilities for presenting numismatic information via the pulpit and religious education are addressed. To this end the reader will find some resources for starting out in the field of ancient and Biblical numismatics, and creatively applying that information for the edification of others.

Abstract:
The Kotta Cina Site Museum is a museum where the archaeological findings of The Kotta Cina are stored in Medan city precisely near the Siombak lake, Medan Marelan District. The ancient coins of Chinese character are a proof that the Chinese people had carried out trading activities in the Kotta Cina we know today. Some of the coins collected by the Kotta Cina Site Museum are ancient coins dating back to the Song Dynasty. This study aims to identify ancient coins of the Song Dynasty to find out the identity of the coins, the size of each coin, and the type of material used in making coins. The research method used is a qualitative descriptive method to describe, describe, explain, explain, and answer in more detail the problem under study. From the results of the research, of the many coins collected by the Kotta Cina Site Museum, there are 34 Song Dynasty coins consisting of 31 Northern Song Dynasty coins and 3 Southern Song Dynasty coins. The entire coin identified was made of the main material iron which had a size of ≤23.99 mm including small coins and a ≥ size of 24.00 mm including large coins.

Abstract:
The chemical reactivity of metals at inappropriate climate conditions can be a threat to metallic cultural heritage. It is known that oxygen plays an important role in the corrosion and decay of metallic objects. Oxide formation is among the most prevalent destructive phenomena in this field. The metallic archaeological objects lose their original shape due to the oxide layer that develops on their surface. Among physical-mechanical and chemical techniques used in the past to remove the oxide layer from these antiques, Cold plasma technology has been proposed as a novel safe method to successfully achieve this goal. In a plasma medium, which can be formed by an electrical discharge, chemically reactive species exhibit a unique behavior in response to the injected gas type, electrical and chemical parameters, etc. This special behavior aids in achieving the user's goal through physicochemical phenomena. In this study, Hydrogen gas, with its reductive character, in the plasma phase provides free radicals of Hydrogen reacting to the copper oxide layer on ancient coins. As a result of this plasma reduction reaction, separation of the oxide layer from the copper surface is achievable. This phenomenon which is called Plasma cleaning, is a type of etching. Plasma cleaning does not destroy surface structure and information contained within metallic heritage artifacts. The feasibility of this non-destructive cleaning method has been investigated for the preservation and restoration of ancient copper coins dating back roughly 300 years ago. These ancient copper coins were exposed to a cold hydrogen plasma for 120 minutes. Results show that Tenorite and Spertiniite formed on the surface of coins have been successfully removed. The black color of Tenorite, a type of copper oxide, gives a dark appearance to copper coins' surface, and Spertitnite, as a copper hydroxide, exhibits a blue-green color on copper coins. According to the results, after 2 hours of hydrogen plasma treatment, not only these green spots have been removed, but also the dark appearance of the entire surface of the coin has been reduced. This amount of clearance is a good result considering the untreated area. Moreover, Figure 1 illustrates the coin's surface using SEM (A) before and (B) after Hydrogen plasma treatment. These images were obtained at a 200x magnification from the surface. In contrast to Figure 1(A), which had heavily polluted surfaces, case B's dark pollution has been removed, reducing the amount of darkness on the coin's surface. This study shows the efficacy of Plasma cleaning for the preservation and restoration of ancient copper coins. Figure 1

Abstract:
Ancient numismatics, that is, the study of ancient currencies (predominantly coins), is an interesting domain for the application of computer vision and machine learning, and has been receiving an increasing amount of attention in recent years. Notwithstanding the number of articles published on the topic, the variety of different methodological approaches described, and the mounting realisation that the relevant problems in the field are most challenging indeed, all research to date has entirely ignored one specific, readily accessible modality: colour. Invariably, colour is discarded and images of coins treated as being greyscale. The present article is the first one to question this decision (and indeed, it is a decision). We discuss the reasons behind the said choice, present a case why it ought to be reexamined, and in turn investigate the issue for the first time in the published literature. Specifically, we propose two new colour-based representations specifically designed with the aim of being applied to ancient coin analysis, and argue why it is sensible to employ them in the first stages of the classification process as a means of drastically reducing the initially enormous number of classes involved in type matching ancient coins (tens of thousands, just for Ancient Roman Imperial coins). Furthermore, we introduce a new data set collected with the specific aim of denomination-based categorisation of ancient coins, where we hypothesised colour could be of potential use, and evaluate the proposed representations. Lastly, we report surprisingly successful performances which goes further than confirming our hypothesis—rather, they convincingly demonstrate a much higher relevant information content carried by colour than even we expected. Thus we trust that our findings will be noted by others in the field and that more attention and further research will be devoted to the use of colour in automatic ancient coin analysis.

Abstract:
Ancient Iranian silver coins minted in various parts of the ancient Iran from Transoxiana to Mesopotamia over a time span of 460 years (247BC-208AD) during Parthians dynasty were analysed by PIXE with a 2.2 MeV proton beam. Forty seven silver coins owned by Tamashagah-e-Pool (museum of money) in Tehran were examined in this study. The possible correlation between the composition of coins and the minting time or the minting location of coins has been the prime objective of the present study. Elemental analysis of ancient coins could also reveal the direct relation with the political and economical situation and also with the metallurgy of the minting time. Results on the contents of principal component elements ( Fe , Ni , Cu , As , Br , Ag , Sn , Sb , Ba , Au and Pb ) are presented and discussed.

Abstract:
The article focuses on the attribution of one gold and two copper coins discovered by the Russian Archaeological Mission of the Institute of Oriental Studies RAS in the ancient Egyptian necropolis of Giza. Coins come from mixed fillings of the burial shafts of the Ancient Egyptian rock-cut tombs of the second half of the 3rd millennium B.C. According to the archaeological context, the coins belong to the stages of the destruction of ancient burials that took place during the Middle Ages and Modern times. One of the coins is a Mamluk fals dating back to the first half of the 14th century A.D., the other two belong to the 1830s — the Ottoman period in Egypt, and are attributed as gold a buchuk hayriye and its copper imitation. Coins are rare for the ancient necropolis and are mainly limited to specimens of the 19th–20th centuries. In general, taking into account the numerous finds of other objects — fragments of ceramic, porcelain and glass utensils, metal ware, glass and copper decorations, we can talk about the dynamic nature of human activity in the ancient Egyptian cemetery in the 2nd millennium A.D. Egyptians and European travelers used the ancient rock-cut tombs as permanent habitats or temporary sites, leaving material traces of their stay.

Abstract:
As part of the study of trace elemental analysis of ancient Indian coins, twenty-five coins belonging to medieval period (11th-14th century A.D) and fifty-nine coins belonging to Kusanas (78-250 A.D) from India have been analysed using Proton Induced X-ray Emission (PIXE) technique. The elements S , Ca , Fe , Cu , Ag , Sn , Pb were detected in 11th-14th century A.D. coins while elements namely S , Cl , K , Ca , Ti , Cr , Mn , Fe , Ni , Cu , As and Zn were detected in most of the Kusanas coins. Based on the elemental analysis different hypotheses put forward in the earlier literature were examined. The presence of Pb determined in medieval period coins does not rule out the utilization of local source of silver extracted from argentiferous galena instead of the Faranjal mines of Afghanistan as normally accepted. From the consistent concentration of Ag in these coins despite the change of Kingdoms it is confirmed that beside the rulers the commercial communities had a great influence in the currency of medieval period. This is the first attempt where reasonable number of ancient coins belonging to different periods were analysed by modern non destructive multi-elemental technique such as PIXE and has put the importance of the elemental analysis of ancient Indian coins in the proper perspective.

Abstract:
Introduction: The three of several ancient bronze coins were selected for this master thesis research. The coins were considered to belong to the Roman mint of the Egyptian origin in the province of Alexandria. They were excavated in the archaeological site Bubastis ancient city. Archaeometallurgical characterisation of those coins implies to a performance of detailed investigation of the chemical composition and microstructure of the alloy and the analysis of corrosion products of the coins. The archaeometry analysis was performed by means of a multi-analytical approach: X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray fluorescence (XRF), optical microscopy (OM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS) will be used to determine the elemental composition and microstructure of the bulk metal and understanding the corrosion mechanism. The origin of the three ancient bronze coins that were chosen for performing the present master thesis research is not known for sure. They are a part of a several coins collection that were purchased at a market in Egypt in Cairo with a purpose of their material study in sense of advantages of conservation science and archaeometry. It is known that nowadays it is not easy to acquire samples of historical value to perform a scientific research, taking in consideration the situation with some museums laws, that sometimes or usually do not support an idea of cooperation between cultural heritage protection and conservation science. On the other hand, a research on material study in most usual cases requires destructive methods of analysis by application of some analytical techniques that consider sample preparation (like cross-sections). ‘It is often difficult to persuade museum curators to permit any sampling technique that involves the physical removal of metal from a coin, although all relevant techniques require the removal of at least some material in order to obtain or expose the ‘heart metal’ of the coin…’ 1 [1] Obviously, the chance of destruction of cultural heritage object is not in any case acceptable, which is one of the reasons of absence of contact between museums and archaeometry and conservation science. In this case, it was necessary to find other ways of obtaining the samples, and the simple idea of their purchase was quite essential.

Abstract:
Les objets quasi-plans sont obtenus à partir d’une matrice qui définit des caractéristiques spécifiques observables dans leur gravure. Les exemples de ce type d’objets incluent les timbres à sec, les timbres amphoriques ou encore les pièces de monnaies anciennes. Les objetsquasi-plans sont par conséquent des formes très plates sur lesquelles un relief caractéristique est inscrit. Reconnaître de tels objets est une tâche compliquée car de nombreux verrous entrent en jeu. Le relief d’objets quasi-plans est sujet à des déformations non rigides et les conditions lumineuses influencent la façon dont ils sont perçus. De plus, ces objets ont pu subir diverses détériorations menant à l’occlusion de certaines parties de leur relief. Dans cette dissertation, nous adressons le problème de la reconnaissance d’objets quasi-plans. Cette thèse est articulée autour de trois grands axes. Le premier axe vise à créer un modèle adapté pour représenter l’objet en exposant ces caractéristiques et en prenant en compte les divers verrous précités. Dans ce but, le concept de carte d’énergie lumineuse est introduit. Les deuxième et troisième axes introduisent des stratégies de reconnaissance. D’un côté, nous proposons l’utilisation de contours de l’objet en tant que données caractéristiques. Ceux-ci sont représentés via un modèle de signature à partir duquel sont calculés des descripteurs. Afin de stocker, retrouver et comparer ces descripteurs, une structure de donnée basée sur des tableaux associatifs, les LACS, est présentée ; elle permet une reconnaissance rapide de contours similaires. D’un autre côté, l’utilisation de textures comme descripteurs de l’objet est envisagée. Dans cette partie, l’étude est centrée sur l’emploi de régions 2D et leur description comme moyen de reconnaissance. Un angle similaire est adopté pour stocker et retrouver l’information ; une structure de donnée proche de celle précédemment décrite, mais plus complexe, est introduite
Quasi-flat objects are obtained from a matrix which defines specific features observable in their engraving. Some examples of these are dry stamps, amphora stamps or ancient coins. Quasi-flat objects are subsequently understood as very flat shapes onto which a characteristic relief is inscribed. Recognizing such objects is not an easy feat as many barriers come into play. The relief of quasi-flat objects is prone to non-rigid deformations and the illumination conditions influence the perception of the object’s relief. Furthermore, these items may have undergone various deteriorations, leading to the occlusion of some parts of their relief. In this thesis, we tackle the issue of recognizing quasi-flat objects. This work is articulated around three major axes. The first one aims at creating a model to represent the objects both by highlighting their main characteristics and taking into account the afore mentioned barriers. To this aim, the concept of multi-light energy map is introduced. The second and third axes introduce strategies for the recognition. On the one hand, we propose the use of contours as main features. Contours are described via a signature model from which specific descriptors are calculated. In order to store, retrieve and match those features, a data structure based on associative arrays, the LACS system, is introduced, which enables a fast retrieval of similar contours. On the other hand, the use of textures is investigated. The scope here is centered on the use of specific 2D regions and their description in order to perform the recognition. A similar angle is taken to store and retrieve the information as a similar, yet a more complex data structure is introduced

Abstract:
The Gorgon is a creature described as terrible in ancient literature. It was depicted with glaring eyes, tusks and a hanging tongue and was a part of Greek antiquity from Archaic to Roman Period. The Gorgon motif has frequently been adorned on different materials. The reason as to why such a creature was depicted has been a subject of interest in earlier studies. The Gorgon motif has been elaborately studied in combination with buildings, armours and vases. A gap of knowledge that is still to be filled is a deeper examination of the Gorgon motifs on coins, which is the inspiration for this study in which the main aim is to approach an understanding of what function the Gorgon motif could have had on Archaic Greek coins. The study is based on a collection of 42 Archaic coins from Athens and Neapolis in Macedon. Through Panofsky's theory of iconography the material is analyzed and discussed via a series of sub-questions; ‘Did the Gorgon motifs differ depending on the location?’, ‘What combination of features appear on the coins?’, ‘To what extent was the Gorgon myth linked to the locations that used the motif and what other myths were used on coins during the same period? ’, ‘Is there a link between the use of Gorgon motifs on coins and on other material objects?’ The paper measures the possible explanations of the Gorgon motif with archaeological finds and ancient texts dealing with the Gorgon, many of which point to the fact that the Gorgon’s function generally served a purpose as an apotropaic symbol. Its function as a possible amulet is investigated using previous research that studies the symbolic significance of the Gorgon, as well as tracing its background and examination of the Gorgon myth to find possible connections with other mythical creatures.
Gorgonen är en varelse som beskrivs som fruktansvärd i den grekiska antikens litteratur. Den avbildas med stirrande ögon, betar och en hängande tunga. Gorgonen har varit en del av den grekiska antiken sedan dess början och har varit ett populärt motiv på olika material. Det har funnits stort intresse i tidigare studier kring anledningarna till att en sådan varelse valts att avbildas. Motivet har studerats omsorgsfullt när det har smyckat byggnader, rustningar och vaser. En lucka som inte har fyllts än inom ämnet är en djupare undersökning av gorgonmotiven på mynt, vilket även är ämnet för denna studie med syftet att närma sig en förståelse för de funktioner som Gorgonmotiven fyllde på mynt under arkaisk grekisk tid. Studien baseras på ett urval av 42 arkaiska mynt från Aten och Neapolis i Makedonien. Genom Panofskys trestegsmodell analyseras gorgonmotiv som framkommer på mynten och svarar på en rad viktiga underfrågor: Skiljer sig gorgonmotiv åt mellan platser Vilka kombinationer av gorgoner förekommer på mynten? I vilken utsträckning var gorgonmyten kopplad till de platser som använde motivet, vilka andra myter användes på mynten under samma period? Finns det ett samband mellan användningen av gorgonmotiv på mynt och på andra objekt? I uppsatsen bedöms möjliga förklaringar till gorgonmotivet med arkeologiska fynd och antika texter som behandlar gorgonen, varav många pekar mot att gorgonens funktion i allmänhet fyllde ett apotropeiskt syfte. Detta undersöks med hjälp av tidigare forskning av gorgonens symboliska betydelse samt kopplingen med andra mytiska varelser genom att spåra dess bakgrund och granskning av gorgonmyten.

Abstract:
'Antigonos Gonatas: Coinage, Money and the Economy' is a presentation and systematic analysis of the precious metal coinages in the name of `king Antigonos'. Most of these issues, including (a) gold staters and silver tetradrachms with the types of Alexander III and (b) silver with individual Antigonid types (tetradrachms, `Pans' and 'Poseidons'; a few drachmae, `Pans' and 'Zeus'; pentobols, `Zeus'), are traditionally assigned to the Makedonian king Antigonos Gonatas (r. 283/277-239 BC). However, their relative chronology and their respective presence in hoards allow for their wider distribution from Gonatas to his later homonym, Antigonos Doson, and for their production at a single mint, demonstrating thus a strong sense of dynastic continuity among Gonatas' successors(chapter 2). It is argued that the numismatic iconography aligns itself with the main threads of the Antigonid international policy established by Gonatas: the Antigonids, following the example of the Temenids, deliberately emphasised their Hellenic identity and piety, in order to become assimilated to the military and political `debates' both in mainland Greece and on an international level. The introduction, in particular, of the second Antigonid tetradrachm type, the Poseidon-head, meant the resumption of the naval claims of Monophthalmos and Poliorketes in the Aegean concomitantly to Gonatas' victorious naval battle against the Ptolemaic fleet at Andros (chapters 2.1,2.4). The analysis of the numismatic material (chapters 3-6) is a prerequisite for a tentative estimation of its approximate quantity and for a better assessment of its distribution pattern. The disproportion between the low annual production rate of these issues and the Antigonid financial requirements may be explained by the use of other precious metal coinages following the Attic weight standard (chapter 7). It is therefore argued that the exercise by the Antigonids of pro-active economic and administrative control was limited and that the introduction of the Antigonid individual issues was inspired by political alongside economic forces.

Abstract:
viii, 113 p.
This thesis analyzes various literary, numismatic, and epigraphical narratives of the Roman civil war of 69CE, and the representations of the four emperors who fought in it. In particular the focus is on how the narratives and representations relate to one another. Such an investigation provides us with useful insight into the people and events of 69 and how contemporaries viewed the actors and the events. These various presentations, most notably the works of five ancient historians and biographers, give 69 the distinction of being one of the best documented years in all antiquity. Historical scholarship has typically sought to determine which of these authors was the most accurate on the points which they disagreed. These points of difference, largely subjective opinion and therefore equally valid, illuminate instead the diverse ways in which an event can be interpreted. This thesis will focus on why there is such diversity and its usefulness to the historian.

Abstract:
The author describes imported ancient coins found in the area of Sochi (Krasnodar region). Of particular interest are an early Caucasian imitation of the staters of Lysimachus, tetradrachm of Mithradates Eupator and bronze coin of Sicyon from the Museum of Sochi History (a local find?). Other coins come from the territory of the Bosporan Kingdom and the Roman Empire, including silver provincial coins of Caesarea in Cappadocia struck in the names of Antoninus Pius, Plautilla and Gordian III. These finds indicate the economic relations of the local population with the Bosporus and Colchis.
