Description
Summary:The archaeological excavations conducted by the EBAF of Jerusalem between November 2010 and April 2011 in the area of the Greek-Orthodox Church of Saint John the Baptist, in the centre of the Holy City, led to the recovery of 78 coins and 1 seal probably from the Ottoman era. The coins cover a very lengthy period from the 2nd century B.C. to the mid-14th century, with particular concentration during three periods (Asmonean, Late Roman and imitations, Byzantine) but there are also a significant numismatic documentation of the Umayyad era.
Les fouilles archéologiques menées par l’EBAF de Jérusalem entre Novembre 2010 et Avril 2011 dans la zone de l’église grecque-orthodoxe de saint Jean-Baptiste, dans le centre de la Ville Sainte, ont conduit à la récupération de 78 monnaies et 1 sceau probablement d’époque ottomane. Les pièces couvrent une très longue période, depuis le 2ème siècle avant J.-C. jusqu’au milieu du 14ème siècle, avec une concentration particulière dans trois périodes (Asmonéen, IVe-Ve siècle avec des imitations, Byzantin), mais il y a aussi une documentation numismatique significative pour l’époque omeyyade.
