Levantine Coinages Online: A New Research Tool for Southern Levantine Coinage

Abstract

Levantine Coinages Online introduces a new open-access, constantly updated digital platform for the study of coinages from the southern Levant under Achaemenid and Hellenistic rule. The current database covers the coinages of Judah (Yhwd) and Samaria (Šmryn), and is based on their recently published comprehensive studies, namely The Yehud Coinage: A Study and Die Classification of the Provincial Silver Coinage of Judah and A Corpus of Samarian Coinage from the Persian Period. Future additions will include the coinage of Philistia and Edom and will provide links to local southern Levantine mints under the Ptolemies and the Seleukids.
