Between Roman Culture and Local Tradition delves into a comprehensive examination of the Roman provincial coinage of Bithynia and Pontus during the reign of Trajan (98-117). This period witnessed the issuance of coins by 14 cities, providing a rich source of information for scholars. The book explores various aspects of these coins, including the individual mints, the rhythm of monetary production, the iconography and legends, and the attribution and dating of specific issues. Contextual insights are gained through studies of other artefacts discovered in the local area, encompassing epigraphic and material remains such as fine art, sculptures, and architectural remnants. The extent of coin circulation is analyzed, as well as the coinage of neighboring provinces like Thrace, Asia, and Galatia-Cappadocia. Historical sources, particularly the correspondence of Pliny the Younger with the emperor, offer valuable perspectives on the realities of life for the inhabitants of individual centers, showcasing ongoing construction projects and local challenges.
The overarching goal of the book is to reconstruct the coinage policies of individual cities and the cultural and religious landscapes of various centers during this period. By studying individual cities, scholars can gain a broader understanding of coinage in the province as a whole. The book contributes to our knowledge of Roman provincial coinage and its role in shaping economic, social, and cultural interactions within the region.
