Reviews

‘In sum, Zając’s volume offers essential baselines in terms of metrology, denomination, iconography, and quantitative estimates that can be further deployed for a variety of research purposes. Issues concerning cooperative mechanisms, inter-city and inter-regional interactions are also raised. Readers will also likely value mentions of local cultural nuances and the varying degrees of Roman influence.’ – Ching-Yuan Wu (2024): Bryn Mawr Classical Review
