The study of these hoards provides a wealth of new information on the archaeological contexts in which they were found, on the dating of many coin types and jewelry, and on the social role of gold in pre-Roman society. All these hoards seem to have been buried in the 50's BC, thus making a direct association with the historical context of Caesar's war campaigns in Northern Gaul very plausible. This makes the volume important for archaeologists as well as numismatists and historians.Amsterdam archaeological studies ;18.1385-7347.Goldwork, CelticNetherlandsGoldwork, CelticBelgiumNetherlandsAntiquitiesGoldwork, CelticGoldwork, Celtic936.01Roymans Nico800853Creemers G(Guido)1723149MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910807236203321Late Iron Age gold hoards from the Low Countries and the Caesarian conquest of northern Gaul4124163UNINA
