3rd Assemani Symposium on ISlamic Coins
Sapienza-University of Rome, 23-24 September 2011
The topic proposed for the 3rd Assemani Symposium is:
Umayyad Coinage in Context:from the late Byzantine and Sassanian time to the early 'Abbasid period
(7th -8th century)
Some suggestions concerning the themes that could be tackled:
1)Coinage during transitional periods (late Umayyad-early 'Abbasid issues);
2)Arab-Byzantine and Arab-Sassanian Coinages: chronology and iconography;
3)Contacts between Umayyad coinage and mediaeval Europe, Central Asia and the Orient;
4)Coin production and circulation (study of coin hoards, analysis of the output of one or more mints, …);
5)Literary sources related to the Umayyad coinage system;
6)Palaeography of coin inscriptions.
