Barter, Money and Coinage in the Ancient Mediterranean
La acuñación de moneda es, junto con la escritura, uno de los grandes inventos de la historia de la humanidad. La escritura ha sido esencial en la transmisión de ideas y conocimientos a través del tiempo y el dinero ha jugado un papel muy importante en la fermentación de la evolución política y social de los grupos humanos. Muy pocas cosas han condicionado la economía de manera más directa que la moneda , con sus efectos concomitantes sobre las ideologías políticas de nuestro universo.. Hemos confirmado que nunca la invención del dinero supuso una evolución lineal de proto-monetaria a la economía monetaria y también que no se llevó a cabo al mismo ritmo en los diferentes espa...

Charlemagne's Early Campaigns (768-777)
Charlemagne's Early Campaigns is the first book-length study of Charlemagne at war. The neglect of this subject has truncated our understanding of the Carolingian empire and the military success of its leader, a true equal of Frederick the Great and Napoleon.
Urban Interactions
This volume is dedicated to eliciting the interactions between localities across late antique and early medieval Europe and the wider Mediterranean. Significant research has been done in recent years to explore how late "Roman" and post-"Roman" cities, towns and other localities communicated vis-à-vis larger structural phenomena, such as provinces, empires, kingdoms, institutions and so on. This research has contributed considerably to our understanding of the place of the city in its context, but tends to portray the city as a necessarily subordinate conduit within larger structures, rather than an entity in itself, or as a hermeneutical object of enquiry. Consequently, not enough research...
The World of Juba II and Kleopatra Selene
Raised and educated in Rome, Juba II (48 BC- AD 23) was sent to uphold Roman interests in northwest Africa as ruler of the cliet kingdom of Mauretania. Together with his wife K'eopatra Selene, daughter of Marcus Anthonius and Kleopatra VII, he established a rich, multicultural environment at their capital, renamed Caesarea, where Egyptian, Hellenistic Greek and indigenous elements came together. Juba combined a reign of more than half a century with a career as a distinguished scholar and writer, producing an extensive collection of works and shaping Roman knowledge of the southern half of the known world, from the Atlantic coast of northwest Africa to India. This book explores the complex culture and legacy of the kingdom, with emphasis on Juba's scholarship and the world created by these two remarkable monarchs. This detailed and comprehensive study is not only the first examination in English of Juba's life and career, but the first critical analysis of the king both as an implementer of the Augustan political, artistic and intellectual programme and as a notable scholar.
The Power of Cities

Rirha : site antique et médiéval du Maroc. I
Localisé à environ 35 kilomètres de l’antique Volubilis, le site de Rirha possède une emprise spatiale d’environ 10 hectares. Occupé de l’époque du royaume maurétanien (Ve siècle av. J.-C.) à la période mérinide (XIVe siècle ap. J.-C.), il est à ce titre un excellent objet d’étude pour apprécier les continuités, les évolutions ou les ruptures dans les modes de vie des habitants de la plaine du Gharb, durant l’Antiquité et le Moyen Âge. Ce premier volume présente un historique des fouilles et des études complémentaires d’archéologie environnementale, menées par une équipe maroco-française depuis 2004. Celles-ci renseignent sur les pratiques des sociétés...
