Freie Universität Berlin Global Histories: a student journal Friedrich-Meinecke-Institut Koserstr. 20 14195 Berlin Sponsors This journal project is realized with generous support from Free University Berlin, specifically from the Global History Section of the Friedrich-Meinecke-Institut, the OJS e-publishing project at CEDIS, and the ZEDAT hostmaster team. Scope and purpose In response to the increasing interest in the ‘global’ as a field of inquiry, a per- spective, and an approach, ‘Global Histories: a student journal’ aims to offer a platform for debate, discussion and intellectual exchange for a new generation of scholars with diverse research interests. Global history can provide an opportu- nity to move beyond disciplinary boundaries and methodological centrisms, both in time and space. As students of global history at Freie Universität Berlin and Humboldt Universität zu Berlin, our interest lies not in prescribing what global history is and what it is not, but to encourage collaboration, cooperation, and dis- course among students seeking to explore new intellectual frontiers. Publication frequency The journal is published twice yearly in June and December.

    Agoranomia: Studies in Money and Exchange Presented to John H. Kroll, pp. – © e American Numismatic Society Amyntas, Side, and the Pamphylian Plain P A R. M* It is a pleasure to be able to honor one who has done so much over the years to remind us that numismatics is but one aspect of the broader pursuit of historical research.¹ It has its own methods, of which he is an undisputed master, but its goals should be those of any historian of the ancient world. e present I offer will, I hope, be tting for a number of reasons. At one level, it deals with a problem with which Jack has had to wrestle in the eld of Athenian coinage: that of imitation, the borrowing of the types of one mint by a different issuing authority (in the case of Athenian imitations at some geographical remove). On the other hand, my subject is one of the rare but wonderful cases where the understanding of a decade or more of the history of an entire region may depend upon the correct understand- ing of a single die link. It is also a case where, for us to be able to appreciate its historical importance, we must move beyond basic numismatic method and begin to question what coinage meant to the individuals who made and used it. I. A We begin in the area of southern Asia Minor, during the period of Mark Antony’s imperium in the East.² In , a Parthian army penetrated deep into Asia Minor under the com- mand of Quintus Labienus, a former lieutenant of the tyrannicides Brutus and Cassius.

  • The Spread of Coins in the Hellenistic World

    The Spread of Coins in the Hellenistic World

    The Spread of Coins in the Hellenistic World Andrew Meadows Although coinage was first ‘invented’ in the archaic Greek period, and spread to a sig- nificant part of the Mediterranean world during the classical period, it remained a mar- ginal element within the economy. At very few cities or mints were coins produced regularly, and the issues of a vast majority of mints were sporadic, small and of coins ill- suited to daily transactions.1 Moreover there existed in the nature of early coinage inher- ent impediments to international use. Thus, while coinage can be said to be a financial innovation of the archaic and classical Greek world, it did not radically change eco- nomic behaviour. Significant changes in the nature and scale of coinage occurred only in the wake of Alexander’s world conquest, during the Hellenistic period. The Hellenistic period runs, as usually defined, from the death of Alexander the Great in 323 BC to the Battle of Actium by which Roman superiority over the Greek world was finally established on 2nd September 31 BC. The period is defined by the world conquest of Alexander the Great, and the consequences of the division of his empire upon his death. The name ‘Hellenistic’ derives from the German term for the period, coined by J.G. Droysen in the 1830s in his Geschichte des Hellenismus (First edition, Hamburg 1836–1843). For Droysen, who had previously written a seminal study of Alexander the Great, the period of Hellenismus, was characterised by the Hellenisation of the world that Alexander had conquered. This world had largely been encompassed by the Achaemenid Persian Empire, but had comprised many different cultures in Asia Minor, the Near East, Egypt, Mesopotamia, Iran and beyond.2 1 On scale, see further below, section “Spread and Scale”.
