Money and Power in Hellenistic Bactria

By Simon Glenn (Ashmolean Museum)

An historically grounded study of the coins produced by the kings of the Graeco-Bactrian kingdom (3rd and 2nd c. BCE). The coins produced by the kings of the Graeco-Bactrian kingdom of the 3rd and 2nd centuries BC are the best and, in some cases, only primary source for the history of the period. The lack of context has, however, often led to highly speculative uses of the numismatic evidence in previous historical reconstructions. This book returns the focus to the coins themselves and presents the results of a study of the issues of Euthydemus I, Demetrius I, Euthydemus II, Pantaleon, Agathocles, and Antimachus I, proposing a new, soundly based history based on an thorough understanding and reconstruction of these enigmatic coins.
