Coin Hoards of the Roman Republic Online
Coin hoards of the Roman Republic
Online (CHRR Online) is a database of Roman
Republican coin hoards mainly from the period 155 BC to AD 2. This
database began life as a personal research database constructed by
Kris Lockyear using a combination of published data and Michael
Crawford's personal archive now housed in the British Museum.
The online database, which utilises the Numishare application
developed by Ethan Gruber, is a joint project between Kris Lockyear
(Institute of Archaeology, University College London) and the
American Numismatic Society. Project coordination provided by Rick Witschonke of the ANS.
The database is not intended to be a
comprehensive listing of hoards of that date. For a detailed
discussion of the construction of the database and the data contained
within it, please see the FAQ, Lockyear 2007, Lockyear 2013 or
Lockyear and Gruber forthcoming.
The database is currently Version 1 (beta).
The data is freely available to
scholars for use in their research. We only ask that you:
(a) identify each hoard in your
publications using the unique three-character hoard identifier;
(b) cite the database in the
following manner:
