This project investigates the role of silver in ancient Mediterranean economies by analyzing silver isotopes to trace its sources and movement. It aims to enhance understanding of early coinage and its impact on societal development.
Silver was the primary metal of economic exchange and military finances in ancient Mediterranean and Near-Eastern societies.
Silver isotopes will help quantify monetization of these societies by identifying Ag mineral sources, monetary sinks, and its major transfer routes.
