bronzr hoard Sicily archaic age intrinsic value notion of weightSettore L-ANT/04 - Numismaticadescription
The contribution analyzes the structure, composition and contexts of the archaic age bronze hoards found in the colonial and anellenic sites of Sicily. The particular frequency of hoards in sacred areas is evident, where they are consecrated to the chthonic divinities due to their intrinsic value, linked to their metallic nature and their notion of weight.
