It gained weight as a key feature of Mediterranean economies in the course of the first millennium BCE, mostly in the form of coinage. But money is more than just coin, and its significance is more pervasive than just to the strict sphere of "the economy". In the ancient Mediterranean, money and its rise to prominence have been predominantly associated with the state. But can money only emerge under state authority? This volume questions the assumed relation between the spread of early forms of money and the state and draws attention to different ways in which money as an innovation could be anchored and socially embedded. 517 $aPolitics of Value 606 $aPolitical economy$2bicssc 610 $aeconomy 610 $amoney 615 7$aPolitical economy 700 $aHeymans$b Elon D$4edt$01207520 702 $aTermeer$b Marleen$4edt 702 $aHeymans$b Elon D$4oth 702 $aTermeer$b Marleen$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557188603321 996 $aPolitics of Value: New Approaches to Early Money and the State$93028412 997 $aUNINA
