This fully-illustrated catalogue publishes 2,021 pre-imperial ancient Greek coins from an area of Asia Minor covering Caria to Commagene but excluding Cyprus. Each coin is carefully photographed and its description appears opposite for ease of reference. Technical details are supplied for each coin, with comparanda and provenances in nearly every case. This welcome addition to the Sylloge Nummorum Graecorum series continues the cataloguing of the Ashmolean Museum's rich holdings. It will be of interest to numismatists, coin collectors, and scholars and students of the archaeology and history of the Greek world.

Roman Britain: A Sourcebook has established itself as the only comprehensive collection of source material on the subject. It incorporates literary, numismatic and epigraphic evidence for the history of Britain under Roman rule, as well as translations of major literary sources.   This new edition includes not only recently discovered material, but also the texts of Caesar’s commentaries on his expeditions to Britain in 55 and 54 BC, as well as relevant sections of Tacitus’ biography of his father-in-law, former governor of Britain. The inclusion of these pivotal texts, which provide the most detailed account of the Romans campaigns in Britain, significantly underlies the volume’s usefulness to all students of Roman Britain.   Though most of the material is arranged chronologically, there are also thematic sections on geography, religion and social and economic activity. Each section is prefaced by an introductory note, and the inclusion of illustrations and maps enhances the attractiveness of this updated collection as a teaching tool and a work of reference.

Though in later antiquity the social comedies of Menander ranked second in popularity only to Homer, his plays were for centuries thought to be irretrievably lost. Only in this century have instances begun to re-emerge from the sands of Egypt, and it was not until 1958 that a complete play, Dyskolos or The Bad-Tempered Man, came to light.

'What reason has an educated man for going to the theatre, except to see Menander'?Thus the judgement of Aristophanes of Byzantium, and in later antiquity the social comedies of Menander ranked second in popularity only to the epics of Homer.

Roman Britain: A Sourcebook

Roman Britain seeks to introduce the history of Rome's involvement with Britain in a succinct and readable way, providing an overview of the country's already diverse culture before the advent of the legions; tracing the historical development of the province under Rome and how the Romans maintained their hold on it; and tackling topics such as administration, development of the towns and countryside, religion and art.
