Book Description
The catalogue, arranged according to standard rules geographically and chronologically and based on the metal and denominations, contains 725 coins illustrated on 91 BW and 52 colour plates. In the introductory text, the history of the relevant part of the numismatic collection is presented including its beginnings, the origin of individual acquisitions and previous fate of particular private collections which came to the National Museum. Coins of the Seleucid Empire and Syrian cities are the most numerous components in the published assemblage. Thus, a fairly representative overview of Seleucid coinage was made covering the time span from Seleucus I to Antiochus XIII. The catalogue also includes several previously unpublished coins, and numerous variants of previously unpublished variants demonstrating the extraordinary variety and intensity of Seleucid coin production. The second most numerous assemblage within the published volume represent the coins of ancient Judaea from the Hasmonaeans to the Second Jewish Revolt, including the Roman Provincial issues. The coinage of ancient Phoenicia is considerably less numerous and represented mostly by the production of Aradus. The rest of the relevant territories, i.e. Mesopotamian, Armenian and Arabian issues, are presented only marginally within the published numismatic material. An important part of the publication are the results of the XRF analyses of particular coins, and their evaluation. The published numismatic material and the way of its presentation is intended to make it available to further scientific research and to develop the current knowledge on the coinage of the Middle Eastern part of the ancient world.

Book Description
Another volume of the Sylloge Nummorum Graecorum, Czech Republic project has been published by the National Museum in cooperation with the Czech Numismatic Society in the end of 2021. The catalogue presents the collection of Egyptian provincial coins, collected by ing. Luboš Král, a long-standing member of the Czech Numismatic Society. In total, 584 coins is represented in this volume including a small quantity of duplicates (always stuck from different dies). The core of the collection consists of Alexandrian issues; coins of the Egyptian nomes, which are quite rare, are represented by mere two specimens (nos. 583–584). The collection documents the coin production in Egypt from the time of Augustus till the end of the provincial mint in 295/6. The basic criteria for incorporation into the collection have been the quality and good state of preservation of the numismatic material allowing its further classification. The presence of coins of particular rulers reflects their occurrence on the numismatic market as well as different volume of mint production. It is most apparent in the case of coinage from Augustus to Caligula and later of Marcus Aurelius and especially Septimius Severus and Caracalla, showing considerable decline. The core of the collection (almost 65%) consists of 3rd century coins from Elagabal till the rulers of the first Tetrarchy. The collection illustrates also the restrain from multi denominational system consisting of tetradrachms and several bronze denominations. From the reign of Commodus on, only tetradrachms are present in this catalogue. Na konci roku 2021 vyšel další svazek edice Sylloge Nummorum Graecorum (Česká republika), jehož vydavatelem je Národní muzeum ve spolupráci s Českou numismatickou společností. Kniha zveřejňuje sbírku epyptských provinciálních mincí, shromážděnou dlouholetým členem ČNS ing. Lubošem Králem. V knize je prezentováno 584 ražeb, jen malém množství se zde vyskytují duplikáty stejného typu – vždy jde však o různá razidla. Jádro souboru reprezentují alexandrijské ražby, egyptské nomy jsou zastoupeny pouze dvěma kusy (č. 583–584), neboť se na trhu vyskytují jen vzácně. Sbírka se snaží dokumentovat vývoj mincovní produkce od Augusta až do zániku provinciální mincovny v roce 295/6. Základním kritériem pro ražby zařazené do souboru je jejich dobrá zachovalost umožňující přesné určení. Zastoupení panovníků ve sbírce odráží především četnost výskytu na trhu, ale zprostředkovaně i menší objemy mincovní produkce. Dobře zřetelné je to u mincí od Augusta do Caliguly, znovu pak za Marka Aurelia a především za Septimia Severa a Caracally, kdy je z hlediska známých typů zřetelný propad produkce. Jádro kolekce (téměř 65 %) tvoří ražby z průběhu 3. století od Elagabala až k panovníkům prvé tetrachrie. Sbírka rovněž dokumentuje ústup od více nominálového peněžního systému tvořeného tetradrachmami a několika bronzovými nominály – počínaje Commodem jsou zde zastoupeny již pouze tetradrachmy.

Book Description
Michael P. Theophilos explores the fascinating variety of numismatic contributions to Greek lexicography, pertaining to lexicographic studies of the Second Temple period in general, and the New Testament in particular. Theophilos considers previous scholarly attempts to grapple with, and incorporate, critical numismatic material into the emerging discipline of Greek lexicography - including foundational work by F. Preisigke and E. Kiessling - before outlining his own methodological approach. Theophilos' then examines the resources available for engaging with the numismatic material, and presents a series of specific case studies throughout the New Testament material. His carefully annotated images of coins draw readers in to a greater understanding of the material culture of the Greco-Roman world, and how this impacted upon the Greek language and the New Testament.

Book Description
This book studies small but highly captivating artworks from antiquity – engraved gemstones. These objects had multiple applications, and the images upon them captured snapshots of people's beliefs, ideologies, and everyday occupations. They provide a unique perspective on the propaganda of Roman political leaders, especially Octavian/Augustus.

Book Description
Sixteen distinguished scholars shed new light on the ancient Roman colony of Cosa. Anna Marguerite McCann surveys the harbor, inspiring Elaine Gazda's study of hydraulic concrete. The far-flung commercial activities of Cosa's Sestius family are explored by Lawrence Richardson, jr, and by Elizabeth Lyding Will, the latter documenting Sestius amphoras excavated by Jacques Cousteau. McCann finds similar Sestius amphoras on the ancient sea route from Rome to Africa with the remote robot excavator. Seaman Vincent Bruno describes Cosa's maritime neighbors. Eric Baade recalls life on the dig, while Russell T. Scott and Portia Paradise focus on the Cosa Museum. Jacquelyn Collins-Clinton's study of the marble statue of Dionysus, Theodore V. Buttrey's interpretation of the Cosa coin hoard, and Norma Wynick Goldman's reading of the New Year's lamp complete the Cosa offerings. Complementing these are studies by Helen North on mythology, by Anne Laidlaw on Roman painted plaster, by Larissa Bonfante on a Roman relief sculpture, by Lionel Casson on ancient travel, and by Blanche Brown on the city plan of Alexandria. All these studies honor Cleo Rickman Fitch, dedicated cataloger of the Cosa lamps.
