Resumen de Intermittent coin production at Roman Sagalassos and the existence of regionale monetary networkds
This paper focuses on the intermittent pattern of coin production at Roman Sagalassos and especially these periods when the city did not strike its own small change. Both the civic coinage struck in name of the city as the coin finds from the excavations are considered. Firstly, an overview of the evolutions in production rhythm and volume at Sagalassos from the reign of Augustus until the reign of Claudius II is presented. Secondly, two possible explanations for the absence of a fresh coin supply during certain moments in time are discussed, being the long-term circulation of local coins on the one hand, and the regional circulation of other provincial coins on the other hand. Also, the possible existence of regional monetary frameworks will be questioned, in which cities could rely on external stocks of small change.
