Event details

In a short talk Barry will outline the key elements of his research against the background of Romanisation in Ancient Britain, with a focus on coin use, money, and exchange. We’ll be looking at coins as texts with an author and reader, and coinage as a form of language system. You can then handle genuine Roman coins, and discuss some of the themes of his research in more detail at the exhibition afterwards!
