Recruté comme adjuteur à la Préfecture urbaine de Rome, Festus doit faire face à une série de crimes perpétrés selon un même rite : globes oculaires évidés, langue coupée, qui semblent impliquer des médecins publics de la ville de Rome et notamment un proche qu'il estime profondément. Cette enquête s'avère riche en rebondissements et lourde en révélations pour notre héros qui va s'apercevoir que même son entourage familial n'est pas complètement "blanc". Premier volet d'une série d'enquêtes par l'historien Bertrand Lançon. [Publisher] | ||

| Abstract:
An analysis of the coinage of the Seleucids and Parthians, uncovered at Susa by French archaeologists during more than a half-century's work. See reviews by G. K. Jenkins in Num. Chron. 7th ser, vol 6 (1966), pp. 247-250; G. A. Koshelenko, VDI, no. 1, (1969), p. 192-194; M. Mainjonet, Revue Numismatique, ser. 6, vol. 8 (1966), pp. 322-324; P. Naster, Revue Belge de Numismatique et de SigillographieN, vol 113 (1967), pp. 210-211. "Although in the first place giving a catalogue of the coins found at the French Susa excavations, it is so crammed with facts on other coinages, that no one who is interested in whatever problem of East Greek numismatics can afford omitting to consult at least the excellent indices. In the manner of Robert and Seyrig, the book also treats the history and geography of Susiane and Elymais; it is one of the greatest numismatic works ever written." [J. P. Guepin, "East Greek Numismatics, Syria to India" (1964)] This work contains the catalogue of Greek coins found at Susa since the beginning of the excavations (4871 examples). In the first chapter the author gives the catalogue and explains the method for chronological classification of the coins and for dividing them by mint; in the second he notes how he has resolved the dates inscribed on coins of the Parthian period. The inventory (pp. 45-254) lists by mint, first Susa, then Seleucia on the Tigris, then others in geographical order. Susa and Seleucia on the Tigris total 4414 examples; a reasonably large number of issues are new. At the end of the inventory is a list of 13 coin hoards so far uncovered in the excavations. The territorial extent of Susa in the Hellenistic period, its resources and administrative organization, its population and cults are studied. The history of Susa in this period is discussed on pp. 297-433, and the importance of the of the coins for the political and economic history is shown. This leads to a study in detail of the issues of the mint of Ecbatana from Seleucus IV to Mithradates I. A final chapter treats the circulation of money in Susa. The volume includes three appendices, lists of rulers and many detailed indices. [Author] Notably, it catalogs a gold stater of Andragoras, pp. 229, 313-314, note 1, plate LXX, 15. | ||
