Iamneia (by the Sea?): A Newly Discovered Mint in First Century BCE Provincia Syria

Abstract

The authors present two unpublished bronze coins of Iamneia (Yavneh), a mint unknown so
far from the Early Roman period. In addition, the authors suggest attributing another type to
this mint, one previously assigned to Gaza. The historical and numismatic context of the coins
and their implications for our understanding of Iamneia are discussed.
