The development of coinage gave men freedom to move beyond their communities, served as a propaganda tool for advancing armies and visually showed people the source of politics which governed their lives. Today, these same bits of metal, these ancient video disks, transmit through time information that might otherwise be lost to us. This volume comprises a selection of papers given at a conference held at the Nickle Museum of The University of Calgary, Alberta, by perhaps the most distinguished gathering of numismatists ever to assemble in North America. Topics include specific coins of the Graeco?Roman world as well as discussions on coinage and propaganda, art, architecture, and archaeology. Archaeologists, historians, coin collectors, students of the Classics, in fact, anyone who is interested in art and life as it existed in ancient times will be captivated by this collection. 606 $aCoins, Greek$vCongresses 606 $aCoins, Roman$vCongresses 615 0$aCoins, Greek 615 0$aCoins, Roman 676 $a737.4938 701 $aHeckel$b Waldemar$f1949-$0182145 701 $aSullivan$b Richard$0213609 701 $aKraay$b Colin M$0207081 712 02$aCalgary Institute for the Humanities. 712 12$aNickle Conference$f(1981 :$eNickle Arts Museum) 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910154731803321 996 $aAncient coins of the Graeco-Roman world$94203760 997 $aUNINA
