Description

Ancient History from Coins is an essential introduction to numismatic methods for students of ancient history at all levels. This Routledge volume demystifies the specialist field of coin study, equipping readers with the techniques, methods and analytical frameworks needed to interpret coins as historical evidence. Coins represent a rich and underutilised source of information for ancient historians, yet many approach them with uncertainty due to interpretive challenges and the specialised nature of numismatics. Dr Howgego provides clear guidance on the main contributions coin analysis makes to historical understanding, addressing the problems that often deter non-specialists from engaging confidently with numismatic sources. Whether you are a first-year student beginning your studies or an advanced researcher seeking to strengthen your evidential base, this guide teaches you how to extract reliable historical insights from coins and medals, transforming them from mysterious artefacts into powerful scholarly tools.
