Aims & Scope
«Numismatics is neither more nor less than the study of one species of evidence to be used in the service of archaeology which itself is one of the Rooms in the Mansion of History» (J.
Kent, in P.
Curnow, Coin Lists: some problems of the smaller site, in Coins and the Archaeologist, edited by J.
Casey, R.
Reece, London, Seaby, 19882, p. 57).
John Kent’s words perfectly illustrate the spirit and aims of this international numismatic magazine: the reconstruction of history through the study of coins.
Coins are, by all means, an archaeological source, as numismatic analyses the external features of an artefact, its authenticity, time and place of production, the connections with the socio-cultural system in which it was produced, its period of utilization and mode of exclusion.
To achieve the goal of a rigorous historical reconstruction, a wide range of methodologies are called forth, such as those implied in the analysis of literary, epigraphic, historical, artistic, stratigraphic, archival and statistical sources, as well as those more suitably involved in the practice of numismatics.
The rigorous application of these methodologies is surveyed by an International Scientific Committee, as a guarantee of the high scientific value of the journal.
Written in English, the magazine has a traditional look, with contributions covering a wide gamut of topics.
Subsequently, issues focused on a specific research area are envisaged too.
Last but not least, this publication also aims at encouraging young scholars to submit their papers, thus offering a qualified opportunity to make their research known.
