Summary
A groundbreaking online database of pre-Imperial Carthaginian coin finds, geolocalized and standardized with contextual archaeological information, has been developed to address the long-standing gap in understanding Phoenician-Punic numismatics. This initiative aims to enhance visibility and accessibility of coin discoveries from Carthage, providing researchers with a comprehensive tool for studying this ancient currency phenomenon. The database integrates spatial data with detailed archaeological context, offering unprecedented insights into the economic and cultural dynamics of Carthaginian society. Presented at the XVI International Numismatic Congress, this resource promises to revolutionize numismatic research by bridging gaps in historical documentation.
