Dramme, didrammi e tetradrammi di Panormos e a legenda ṣyṣ nel V secolo a.C.: aggiornamenti e riflessioni intorno alle sequenze dei conî

2019

The main objective of this essay is to comment upon the modes of production and the datings of the 5th century BC non-fractional silver coinage bearing the Greek legend ΠΑΝΟΡΜΟΣ (and variants) and the Punic legend ṣyṣ. The reconstruction of the die sequences published by G. Kenneth Jenkins in 1971 and its recent updates will be discussed in detail. As far as the identification of the issuing authority and of the minting place of the coins with legend ṣyṣ is concerned, for a long time to the center of the scientific research interests, only the inferences made from an analysis of the die sequence have been taken into consideration.

MIS-C and co-infection with P. vivax and P. falciparum in a child: a clinical conundrum.

2022

Abstract Background The ongoing Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) epidemic represents an unprecedented global health challenge. Many COVID-19 symptoms are similar to symptoms that can occur in other infections. Malaria should always be considered in patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection returning from endemic areas. Case presentation We present the first case of multisystem inflammatory syndrome (MIS-C) and Plasmodium vivax-falciparum and SARS-CoV2 coinfection in children. Despite clearance of parassitaemia and a negative COVID-19 nasopharyngeal PCR, the patient’s clinical conditions worsened. The World Health Organization (WHO) criteria were used to make the diagnosis of MIS-C. Treatment wi…

Cryptocurrencies, Cybersecurity and Bankruptcy Law: How Global Issues Are Globalizing National Remedies

2020

The market for cryptocurrencies is interspersed with cases of loss, theft and fraud and a new transnational practice in bankruptcy law is emerging whereby cryptocurrency exchanges compensate the injured users on a collective basis. This paper will argue: first, that this trend has transplanted into Asia and Europe the US idea according to which bankruptcy law can be employed to avoid mass litigation; secondly, that this trend has transcended the debate about the characterization of digital assets, including the concerns of those scholars who maintain that digital coins cannot be objects of property; and thirdly that – since this practice follows the pattern of so-called restorative justice …

Nuove considerazioni sull'unità ponderale della prima serie monetale di Biblo

2000

In this contribution it is proposed to identify the standard of 9 gr. of the first Byblos coin series with the Syrian standard of 9.40 gr. which, as evidenced by the material documentation, is rooted in Syria-Palestine from the Late Bronze Age up to the time of coinage of the Phoenician cities

Coinage and Indigenous Populations in Central Sicily

2015

The study of the coins found in the indigenous settlements of Caltanissetta province and the analysis of the related contexts of provenance, have highlighted that in these centers, still in the 4th century BC, the coin was considered a worthless piece of metal and that other bronze objects were used as medium of exchange. It is remarkable the discovery in this territory of three “mixed” hoards, including not only coins, but also of bronze scraps and small fragmentary objects. These elements seem to show a late achievement, among those communities, of an economy based on the exclusive use of coins, that was a peculiar expression of the Greek culture

Rinvenimenti monetali dall’area centro-meridionale della Sicilia

2007

Object of the contribution are the Roman coins found in central-southern Sicily. These are few specimens, almost always found in an isolated state and rarely known with the context of discovery, which, however, allow us to advance some reflections concerning the occupation of the territory. In particular, numismatic evidence from Gela would seem to suggest that the city continued to be frequented even after its destruction in 282 BC.

Rinvenimenti monetali e contesto di scavo. Un ripostiglio di monete puniche da Gela

2018

The excavations in Capo Soprano country at Gela (1999-2001) have hallowed to recover a living quarter, in which was a hoard of 17 bronze coins of Punic Sicily with female head and horse in front of palm-tree. The stratigraphic excavation of the quarter has permitted to find two living phases, sealed by collapsed roofs and walls. The excavation has supplied information concerning the relative chronology of the layers and the walls, while the stratigraphic association between pottery and coins offers information concerning the absolute chronology. These elements also make it possible to consider the siege of Gela by Agathokles (317-309 B.C.) as the terminus ante quem for the ancient phase. Si…
