In addition, the main silver coin, of course no longer detectable under another the corresponding name, again the Neronian denarius of ^ pounds, sometimes denoted by the value number XCVI; also the Qui- nar occurs again, albeit rarely. But the explanation The production of all these pieces was so uneven — the denarius e.g. B. fluctuates between 4 and 2.4 gr. — , furthermore The gold piece of this time was also minted so irregularly that... a fixed coin ratio between gold and silver coins hardly have passed, but only the weight for both may have been the value meter; although not It remains impossible for one to be certain about smaller amounts Conventional value approaches followed. Gonstantin kept from Diocletian's varied nominals are initially only the one restituted denarius, which was also among his closest followers conclusion, but has disappeared since the year 360. At the same time he probably tried to put the silver coin into a solid to put holdings on the gold pound by adding 18| Denarii on the Solidus, 1333 counting on the pound worked ^). But this was There's no way it's comfortable; Therefore, at least already under Gonstan tin, another way of minting silver into life, which the corresponded better to the new gold currency. With the same weight, namely Kch with the solidus a piece of silver was brought out, which as y^ö^ of the gold pound it should be considered and hence the name mili' arense {fxthaQtjoiov) led ^ ^). So there was a solidus exactly

9) This equation is calculated according to the coin value of the Miiiarense net. If the miiiarense of ^ pounds is equal to rdW gold pounds, so go from 18^4 ^^^ ^^^ to the gold pound, 18^4 ^^^ ^^^ Solidus. The gold is at 14 times (exactly 1x times) the value Silver taken. The same ratio (exactly 14.4 times) results the one in Cod. Theod. 13, 2, 1 of the ordinance of J. 397, whereby the pound of silver is permitted to be replaced with five solidi.
10) The reasons that lead to this in the silver piece of ^ pounds to recognize the TniUarense are convincingly taken from Mommsen p. 790 been wrapped. The oldest documented mention of the coin can be found can be found in the writing of Epiphanius about measures and Weights (§ 2 p. 12), where (t.

This was a new thing at the same time the subordination of the silver coin to the gold courant spoken, and again this resulted in further changes Monetary order that came into being under Julian.

But they didn't say how about the new coin to be expected given the early circumstances, 28, but already 24 pieces represent the value of a solidus, so that is now a loss was no longer to be feared with silver coinage.

When Diocletian, after the long period of immoderate If the coins deteriorated, the pure silver coinage would have to be restored. he inherited an endless mass of pseudo-silver a coin.

A part of it has to be called up and sold as coin metal, perhaps with a further addition of copper to the new coinage must have been used; because that's the only way to explain it It is clear that copper coins and silver can also be seen in the Diocletiani fmdet '^). It appeared in two denominations, one larger of about 10 gr., and a smaller one of 2.5 to 2 gr.; Like the earlier Billon, it was boiled white, and on the In the larger variety the peculiar one sometimes appears

Let us bring with it the ordinance of J. 397 (Cod. 13, 2, 1) in connection where the replacement of 1 pound of silver with 5 solidi is equipped, the ratio of silver to copper is 125:1. In the Cod. lustin. 10, 29, 1, where the regulation on copper detachment is repeated is, instead of 25 pounds, 20 pounds are added to the solidus. After that The ratio of gold to copper is 1440:1, and silver to copper like 100:1.

3. Weight and coin amounts. The two money weights in According to Herodotus 3.8^ ff., the Persian empires were the Babylonian ian talent for silver and the Euboian talent for gold. Unfortunately is the report he gave at the place mentioned about the tributes the provinces of the Persian Empire are not unadulterated reported Finding the 360 gold talents that India controlled According to the approach, the gold is thirteen times worth of the silver, correctly reduced to 4680 Euboian silver talents cirt. On the other hand, the other numbers are not correct. If you add them together individual amounts of the nineteen satrapies, you get 7600 Babylonian talents 7); If you reduce this according to the approach, which the handwritten tradition states that a baby If Ionian talent is equal to 70 Euboian mines, then you get only 8866|^ Euboian talents instead of those calculated by Herodotus ten 9540. Finally the total is correct, which according to Hero- dot is 14560 talents, not with the rest. Than very probable improvement is suggested by Mommsen, that Herodotus placed not 70, but 78 Euboian mines on the ba- Bylonian talent was calculated, and then the sum of the silver tribute, expressed in Euboian talents, 9880 instead of 9540 was, whereupon the total given by Herodotus was completely men is true®).

8) The most likely error can be found most reliably by going back- re-level. According to Herodotus, the total is 14,560, the two items, by adding them together they came into being, 9540 and 4680. The last number is safe, since they arose from the correct reduction of the 360 gold talents is; So either the total or the first item is incorrect. Now it has been shown above that the number 9540 is already used in other ways. is thoughtful; So if we assume that the main sum is correct, this results 14560 - 4680 = 988Ü instead of the 9540 in the text, a change change, which is also very likely palaeographically. Now let's set these 9880 Euboian silver talents equal to the 7600 Babylonian talents- th, which was the sum of the individual tax rates, it follows that the Babylonian talent had 78 Euboian mines. So if the Herodotus' calculation is supposed to be correct, so the numbers 70 and 9540 are in the in the manner specified. Mommsen has these improvements business of the Roman coin. S. 22 ff. suggested, starting from that The sentences found in the coin weights indicate that the Babylonian ta- lent is related to the Euboian one like 4:3. After that it would actually be 80 Euboian mines fall on the Babylonian talent, only Herodotus calculates only 78 because the Euboian d. h. Attic silver mine was a little bigger, as the Euboian or Persian mine of gold.

The Philetary System received a further modification under Roman rule, with the main masses of the Romans, the youth and the mile were included. Without All the difficulty came with the introduction of the Jugerum. Since the Roman feet shy of the Philetary in the ratio of 5:6 stood, so a philaterist straightened it out ftoppelplethron a Jugerum of 240 Roman feet and 120 feet width. The transfer of the mile was less easy, According to precise calculations, 7,004 phileteric stadiums were built the Roman mile, and 4.26 healing on the Egyptian waymafs, the Schoinos of 30 stadia. This relationship was simplified, by walking a round number of 4 miles on the Schoinos and deia- according to 7| Stadiums per mile. Of course this made it possible the mile larger, it contained, as did Heron and Didymus, tackle it aggressively, now 5400 (instead of 5000) Roman feet^ä); So we have to be careful with this Egyptian mile to be confused with Roman ones, as well as the Phileteric Stadium is quite different from the older Greek language.

After Strabo (17 p. 804), Artemidorus of Ephesus as an informant states, the length of these stations depended on the locality and very different from the flow of the river; it turned out that the the same, now 30, now 40, now even 60 and 120 stadia. Accordingly, the information about the size also varies, which is attributed to Schoinos as Wegmafs. Herodotus calculates it everywhere as 60 stages (§ 9, 1), Eratosthenes (according to Plin. 12, 13 § 53) to 40, Artemidor, Strabo and the Alexandrian niche metrologists to 30 stadiums. Provide safe support some information about the dimensions of Egypt partly from He- rodot partly in the Itinerarium Antonini (p. 152 Wessel.), from which d'Anville and Ideler already concluded that the Schoinos approximately 4 Roman miles^^). The more precise result could only emerge from knowledge of the philatelic system result. With the help of this, Letronne^*) proves that the Schoinos 4 Egyptian miles, each equal to 3000 royal cubits or 4500 Philetary feet. After that it's accurate Mafs of the Schoinos 6300 meters = 20077 preufs. Fuss := 4.26 Roman miles; But the Roman geodesists did the math the Egyptian mile is equal to the Roman mile and therefore also the Schoinos equals 4 Roman miles.

Egypt was among the Diadocian states that emerged from the Inii Cedonian monarchy emerged, the only one in which the Attic coin foxes introduced by Alexander were not accepted. The Ptolemies minted their coins in both gold and silver on the foot of the lyrical drachma, which, as shown earlier, the one that belonged to the currency of Asia Minor. The same one came in Egypt weighing 3.57 gr. out, and there were after that in gold since Ptolkmaeus 11 pieces of S, 4 and 1 drachma, in Silver mostly minted tetradrachms^). There was one for that Copper drachma, which in normal weight is probably the Golil and silver drachma were equal. All three metals were in one set a fixed ratio of coins to each other. That was the case golden octadrachmon as much as a mine of silver and as one talent of copper^), or the gold behaved like that to the silver 100: S, to copper like 6000 - 8; d. h. the gold had it 12 times the value of silver and 750 times the value of copper, the silver is 60 times the value of the copper.

The medimnon meant the sowing of a medimnos grain and its amount corresponded fairly closely to the Roman one Jugerum, because according to the verdict given by Hygin it contained ratios just like this 28800 D Fufs (36000000: 1250 = 28800).

There is therefore no doubt that the Sicilian see Medimnos was equal to the Attic^). The Romans learned first knew the Attic Mafs in Sicily, and called it there- according to probably also the Sicilian, a language usage, the Polybius retained from its Roman sources.
3. Coinage. In all of Sicily except the The north-eastern coast from Himcra to Naxos ruled natively from the Attic currency^). The large piece was in some cities the didrachmon, in others the tetradrachmon. This one Attic silver currency was used in a peculiar way with the Italian, also native to Sicily from ancient times Copper currency linked. The unity of the same was in Italy the pound of copper with its duodecimal parts. The Benen nations in Greek, which are entirely modeled on the Latin ones are, read:
Pound kiroa = libra

^\j tergag == triens

This copper currency was initially introduced into the Greek chical system introduced that the litra was reduced to half the attribute schen mine (= f Roman pound) standardized and the latter for it was completely abandoned. The talent therefore contained 1 20 liters. Furthermore, the values of the copper currency were converted into a fixed Holdings were set to the silver coin.
