Document Details : Title: Third-Century Currency Changes Subtitle: Evidence from Egyptian Papyri Author(s): ROBERTSON, Stuart Journal: Ancient Society Volume: 50 Date: 2020 Pages: 247-275 DOI: 10.2143/AS.50.0.3289084 Abstract : This article examines viticulture labour papyri from Egypt in the third century AD for evidence of the impact that the currency reforms undertaken by Aurelian had on wages. It suggests that the inflation that is generally ascribed to these reforms is of a far more modest nature than is usually argued. |
