{"product_id":"material-culture-and-cultural-identity-rosa-maria-motta-9781784910921","title":"Material Culture and Cultural Identity: A Study of Greek and Roman Coins from Dora","description":"The ancient harbor town of Dor\/Dora in modern Israel has a history that spanned from the Bronze Age until the Late Roman Era. The story of its peoples can be assembled from a variety of historical and archaeological sources derived from the nearly thirty years of research at Tel Dor - the archaeological site of the ancient city. Each primary source offers a certain kind of information with its own perspective. In the attempt to understand the city during its Graeco-Roman years - a time when Dora reached its largest physical extent and gained enough importance to mint its own coins, numismatic sources provide key information. With their politically, socio-culturally and territorially specific iconography, Dora's coins indeed reveal that the city was self-aware of itself as a continuous culture, beginning with its Phoenician origins and continuing into its Roman present.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rosa Maria Motta\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1784910929\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781784910921\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Archaeopress Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/26\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 118\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Rosa Maria Motta","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48113725145343,"sku":"9781784910921","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_98935c4d-c950-44ed-9cbf-cd44fd7ea9a9.jpg?v=1769616907","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/material-culture-and-cultural-identity-rosa-maria-motta-9781784910921","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
