This book is a comprehensive study of the coins minted by Apamea,
Larissa, Raphanea, Emesa and Laodicea ad Libanum in Syria during
the late Hellenistic and Roman periods. It offers a historical
overview of the individual cities, followed by in-depth discussions
of the production, circulation, metrology and iconography of the
coins. The text is supplemented with numerous die studies providing
a structural framework of the various issues. A catalogue of 1,367
coins is also provided. Detailed discussions of the coinages and
comparisons with contemporaneous issues of neighbouring mints
reveal the diverse nature of the coins. The volume bridges the gaps
in our understanding of coinage in the Orontes Valley and
surrounding regions.
