Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Although a few of the classicising pre-Roman coin types derive from actual Imperial coins, many more were inspired by the designs on intaglios. This is particularly clear in the Catuvellaunian coins, whose execution is so classically fine that their die-engravers must have been trained within the Empire. They perhaps worked in Britain, using for their models the clay seal-impressions on diplomatic and trade correspondence, since no intaglios have ever come from pre-Roman contexts in Britain. | ||||
