But over the past decade there have been changes in technology – especially in excavation, transport and marketing via social media and the Internet--that have expanded and globalized the trade and made it easier for non-experts to reap the profits. This report looks at (1) the current state of the trade in looted antiquities from Iraq and Syria, (2) the role of new technologies that make it easier for terrorists and criminal groups to profit and (3) new ways to track terrorist involvement in the trade and try to disrupt it.

  • STEPHEN and the ANARCHY Ii35-1154
    STEPHEN AND THE ANARCHY ii35-1154 By R, P. MACK HENRY I died oil December 1st 1135 leaving his daughter Matilda as the sole representative of the legitimate line of the Dukes of Normandy and with therefore some claim to the throne of England. But Matilda was not popular with the barons and on Henry's death they elected Theobald, the eldest son of Henry I's sister Adele. However, Stephen, Theobald's younger brother, on hearing of this crossed over to England and had himself crowned King actually while the elections were taking place in Normandy. STEPHEN1 (1135-54) Stephen was an attractive personality and popular in both England and Normandy. He was brave and generous, his faults being a certain lack of firmness and strength of character and uncertainty in making decisions in difficult circumstances. He married Matilda, daughter of Eustace of Boulogne. Throughout his reign there was considerable turmoil and confusion and when the Empress Matilda came to England in 1139 to try and obtain the throne, with the help of her half-brother, Robert earl of Gloucester, there was more or less open warfare between the two sides, the Empress being supported in the north by her uncle, David I of Scotland. During this period Stephen, who with the help of his brother Henry, Bishop of Winchester, had the support of the church and controlled most of the wealth of the country, held the eastern part of England whilst the Empress with headquarters at Bristol and Gloucester controlled most of the west. It was at this time that many barons raised their own little armies, fortified their castles and joined in the struggle purely for selfish reasons, often plundering their neighbours and supporting whichever side they thought was winning.

  • NEW MONEYERS in Iethelred II's
    270 SHORT ARTICLES AND NOTES NEW MONEYERS IN iETHELRED II'S BENEDICTION HAND TYPE KRISTIN BORNHOLDT COLLINS AND ELINA SCREEN ^ETHELRED'S coinage of the 980s and 990s has attracted much debate, and the three Hand types in particular have featured in wider discussions on the nature, duration of issues and the general implementation of Edgar's reform of the coinage.1 The rare Benediction Hand type remains especially poorly understood. It is therefore worthy of note that a large quan- tity of new material - nearly 450 coins, more than half of which are Hand types, from three Dublin hoards found in 1993 and 1994 - has emerged for this formative period of Late Anglo-Saxon coinage. This will be fully published in the SCBI series (Dublin) and analysed in greater detail in due course. The purpose of this note is to draw attention to these as yet unpublished finds and in particular to the substantial Benediction Hand component, which includes seven new moneyers, here published for the first time. Other material has been brought to our attention by Kenneth Jonsson and come to light through reassessment of the Oslo collection for a SCBI volume on Norwegian collections; we have also taken the oppor- tunity to re-examine the two Benediction Hand coins Jonsson attributed to an uncertain London moneyer only. A revised table of moneyers in Benediction Hand builds upon the data published in Jonsson 1987a, and provides an updated overview of the type (Table 4). The Dublin hoards The three hoards from Dublin (summarized below in Table 1) were unearthed in relatively close geographical proximity, on Castle Street and Werburgh Street (just north and west of Dublin Castle), in rapid succession in 1993 and 1994.

  • The Mint of Aylesbury William N
    THE MINT OF AYLESBURY WILLIAM N. CLARKE AND DAVID SYMONS THIS article has been prompted by the acquisition by one of the authors (WNC) of a previ- ously unrecorded coin of Aylesbury (see below, Corpus no. 10.5). However, rather than sim- ply publishing this coin in isolation, it seemed an opportune moment to re-assess the activity of the mint and to assemble a corpus of the known coins. A?gelesburh{ is a town in Buckinghamshire, about seventeen miles south-east of the county town of Buckingham. It was recorded as one of the towns captured in 571 by Cuthwulf, the brother of Ceawlin of Wessex.2 Little is known of its earlier history, but it must have become the site of a significant market since Domesday Book assesses the tolls at £25 in the time of Edward the Confessor, although this had fallen to £10 at the time of the survey. The number of surviving coins is small. Only twenty-eight have been traced in the course of this study,3 that total breaking down as follows - /Ethelred II CRVX (c.991-97) 4 Cnut Quatrefoil (c. 1017-23) 8 Edward the Confessor Radiate/Small Cross (c. 1044-46) 9 Trefoil Quadrilateral (c. 1046-48) 2 Pointed Helmet (c. 1053-56) 1 Hammer Cross (c. 1059-62) 2 Facing Bust (c. 1062-65) 2 No coins of the mint have been recorded in the successive issues of 'Coin Register' that have appeared in this Journal since 1987, nor have any been recorded in either the Early Medieval Corpus of Coin Finds4 or in the database of the Portable Antiquities Scheme.5 As these numbers suggest, Aylesbury seems to have made a comparatively minor contribu- tion to the Late Saxon coinage pool.

  • The Coinage of Kythnos* Περιληψη: Η Κύθνος, Κατά Την
    THE COINAGE OF KYTHNOS* ΠΕΡΙΛΗΨΗ: Η Κύθνος, κατά την αρχαϊκή περίοδο, δεν έχει να επιδείξει νομισματική δραστηριότητα, η οποία φαίνεται να αρχίζει μόνο στον 2ο π.Χ. αι. Από την φάση αυτή σώζονται 80 νομίσματα, στα οποία απεικονίζονται έξι διαφορετικοί εμπροσθότυποι: κεφαλή Απόλλωνα, Αρτέμιδος, Αθηνάς Παλλάδας, μία γυναικεία και μία ανδρική προτομή, πιθανόν αυτοκρατορικές, και ένας σκύλος. Στους οπισθότυπους εμφανίζονται η κιθάρα ή χελύς, το ρόδο, σταφύλι, υδρία και αμφορέας. Σε όλα σχεδόν τα νομίσματα σώζεται η επιγραφή ΚΥ ή ΚΥΘΝΙ, η οποία επιβεβαιώνει την απόδοση στην Κύθνο. Δυστυχώς δεν υπάρχουν βέβαια χρονολογημένα νομίσματα από "θησαυρούς" ή ανασκαφικά σύνολα, όπως δεν ανευρίσκονται και κοινές σφραγίδες ανάμεσα στις διαφορετικές κοπές, ώστε να υπάρξει μία σχετική κατάταξη τους. Σύμφωνα πάντως με τεχνοτροπικά κριτήρια, η σειρά Απόλλων/χελύς φαίνεται να είναι η πρωιμότερη. Μπορούμε ωστόσο να διακρίνουμε, ανάλογα με το βάρος και τις διαστάσεις, τρεις διαφορετικές υποδιαιρέσεις, από τις οποίες η μεγαλύτερη (Απόλλων/κιθάρα ή χελύς) ισοδυναμεί με διπλό χαλκού, η μεσαία (Απόλλων/ρόδο) με χαλκού, ενώ στην μικρότερη υποδιαίρεση έχουν κοπεί σχεδόν όλοι οι άλλοι τύποι, εκτός από τη γυναικεία προτομή/κιθάρα, οι οποίοι χρονολογούνται πιθανότατα στην αυτοκρατορική περίοδο. Σύμφωνα με τα γνωστά παράλληλα άλλων νησιωτικών εργαστηρίων της περιοχής, η Κύθνος φαίνεται ότι συνέχισε τη νομισματική δραστηριότητα της μέχρι το τέλος του Ιου π.Χ. αι. και ίσως και μέσα στον Ιο μ.Χ. Εξαιρετικό ενδιαφέρον παρουσιάζει η σειρά Απόλλων/ρόδο, στην οποία έχει ήδη αναφερθεί ο L. Robert, συσχετίζοντας την με την ροδιακή κυριαρχία. Πηγαίνοντας ακόμα μακρύτερα και με βάση και τις επιγραφικές μαρτυρίες, μπορούμε να υποθέσουμε ότι η Κύθνος αποτελούσε για τους Ρόδιους ένα εξαιρετικό σημείο ελέγχου του Αιγαίου, και κυρίως του Σαρωνικού.
