Anatolia's Ancient History and Numismatics Blog
NumisTR focuses on the 2,700-year story of the Anatolian lands and presents information on the generally accepted ancient regions. It also aims to be a reference on fundamental topics for archaeologists, historians, collectors and anyone curious about numismatics.
The rich numismatic heritage of Anatolia's sixteen ancient regions has reached us through thousands of distinct coin types, each reflecting its own economic identity, political autonomy, religious beliefs and artistic taste. From the revolutionary invention of money in Lydia to the democratic federal coinage of the Lycian League, from the commercial genius of Kyzikos to the cultural synthesis of the Galatians, every coin is a primary historical document of its age.
