NUMISMATIC BIBLIOGRAPHY OF AQUILEIA ROMANA
Aquileia was born as a Roman military base, first to expand to Italy and later to Istria and
Dalmatia. There are also economic reasons, first against Norico, who was the main form of gold
and amber, and then against Pannonia. This made Aquileia an important transport hub for Gaul
from west to east to the Alps and later the capital of the 10th region Venetia et Histria (name
attributed to the most reluctant population groups) Romanization - the Istri - and the Venetian
civilization, who have contributed more than others to give the Italian Ostraum a cultural
order.
The Aquileia crisis prevailed through the devastation of Attila, which occupied it and was
destroyed on July 18, 452. They had to escape a future through the city Rebuild Grado. As for the
bibliography on the Roman coinage of Aquileia, it was never very extensive, on the contrary, it is
very small, especially when we consider the works with the term "Aquileia" in the title.
We know
that Maurice Jules began studying French at the beginning of the last century. L'atelier monétaire
d'Aquilée pendant la période constantinienne. Milano, 1901. Paperback, s. 42, tab. 1. Very rare
and coveted issue among the bibliophiles of the Roman Aquileia coin.
A good leap of just over
twenty years and we come to a German-language study that was published in 1923 in the
numismatic magazine "Voetter O. Romische Munzpragung in Aquileia". Numismatic Journal, Vienna,
1923.
A good impetus for the study of Roman coinage from Aquileia was in the 1930s and 1940s
with three studies by Oscar Ulrich Bansa, the most productive author for Roman Aquileia, Ulrich
Bansa Oscar.
Cinque nuove monete di Aquileia romana. Aquileia, s.d. Paperback, s. 42, tab. 2.
Ulrich Bansa Oscar. Note sulla zecca di Aquileia Romana. I multipli del soldo d'oro. Grafiche Chiesa,
Udine, 1936s. 79, all canvas with 2 photographic pictures on the front (front and back of a coin), 1
tab. folded from the text + 6 tables from the text of coins collected in a special carpet at the end of
the volume.
Ratto Rodolfo. Qualche considerazione sulla zecca di Aquileia. Rivista numismatica e
Scienze affini 1937;
Grafica Perugia, 1937. Ulrich Bansa Oscar, Le ultime monete della zecca di
Aquileia romana. Brossura, Padova 1947 p. 12, tab. 1.
Then the silence apart from a few small
articles in some magazines like Leogrande, Aquileia romana, Italia Numismatica, Casteldario and a
few studies by Giulio Bernardi e Giancarlo Drioli on a couple of yearbooks by Circolo Numismatico
Triestino in the 70s.
Still a long time of silence to get there Sagramora Moreno. Moneta
aquileiensis. I.R.I., Zero Branco, I ed. 1995, 464 s., Ill. and an II edition from 2010. At the end of the
last century, Bernardelli Armando, Gorini Giovanni & Saccocci Andrea came out on the occasion of
an exhibition. Monete ad Aquileia: l'esposizione numismatica. Ministero beni culturali ambientali,
Sovrintendenza Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Museo archeologico nazionale di Aquileia. Edizioni della
Laguna; 1997 p. 46.
It was only with the new century that the masterly work of Paolucci Raffaele &
Zub Artur finally came. La Monetazione di Aquileia Romana. Raffaele Paolucci editore, Padova,
2000s. 259, ill. It was released last year by Asolati Michele & Stella Andrea. Aquileia. Fondi Cossar.
3.1. le monete. Quasar editore, Roma, 2019 p. 292, ill. This volume contains the catalog and the
analysis of the money found from archaeological research carried out between 2009 and 2015 by
the University of Padua with funds from the former Cossar di Aquileia. The study contains a first
part, which deals with the numismatic analysis of individual monetary findings with regard to the
archaeological context of relevance. The following is a second part, dedicated to the nest of over
560 late Roman bronze coins found during the 2011 campaign, as well as a summary of the money
in circulation in the Italian diocese during the 5th century AD, aimed at finding the finds the aquile
eggs from this period.
Everything here is the specialist bibliography on Roman Aquileia. There are
other works dealing with the coin of Aquileia, mainly we have 4 volumes of the Roman Reich
coinage of the Bible for Roman Reich coins. Bruun Patrick Magnus. The Roman Imperial Coinage
vol. VII. London, 1966. Kent J.P.C. The Roman Imperial Coinage vol. VIII. London, 1981. Pearce
J.W.E. The Roman Imperial Coinage vol. IX. London, 1951. Kent J.P.C. The Roman Imperial Coinage
vol. X. London, 1994 Bastien, Depeyrot and Jelocnik also deal with the Roman Aquileia coin and,
however, in volumes that deal with Imperial Roman numismatics in general and not specifically
with the coin we are talking about.
