Abstract: This edited collection analyses the phenomenon of coin use for religious and ritual purposes in different cultures and across different periods of time. It proposes an engagement with the theory and interpretation of the ‘material turn’ with numismatic evidence, and an evidence-based series of discussions to offer a fuller, richer and fresh account of coin use in ritual contexts. No extensive publication has previously foregrounded coins in such a model, despite the fact that coins constitute an integrated part of the material culture of most societies today and of many in the past. Here, interdisciplinary discussions are organised around three themes: coin deposit and ritual practice, the coin as economic object and divine mediator, and the value and meaning of coin offering. Although focusing on the medieval period in Western Europe, the book includes instructive cases from the Roman period until today. The collection brings together well-established and emerging scholars from archaeology, art history, ethnology, history and numismatics, and great weight is given to material evidence which can complement and contradict the scarce written sources.

Abstract: During excavations near Merklingen (Alb-Donau-Kreis) in 2014, a small late Iron Age hoard consisting of 42 silver coins came to light. The coins were not found in situ but were scattered over a larger area and discovered by metal detecting. This may be due to earlier construction works and ploughing. The homogeneous composition of the hoard shows close relations to the coins of the oppidum of Altenburg, situated in a meander of the Rhine at the German-Swiss border: It consists of two quinarii of the Kaletedou and one of the Arverni type, two unidentifiable quinarii and, above all 37 quinarii of the bushel type (88,1%). The hoard was deposited in the early stage of LT D2a, roughly between 80 and 60 BC. From this period, we know of only a few clearly datable finds from the southern part of Baden-Wurttemberg. Some scholars have connected this negative record with the migration of the Helvetii and the abandonment of their lands (“Helvetiereinöde”) as described by the ancient writer Ptolemy. Against this background, questions arise on the hoard’s original owner(s) and how the hoard finally reached its place of deposition.
