Can an image be considered a historical document? Certainly yes, if it is a monetary image, chosen by the governing authority to facilitate the acceptability of the currency, communicate messages to users, play a role of legitimation and strengthening of political power! The initial question was answered by scholars of different disciplines, who participated in Messina, in March 2002, in the international study meeting promoted by the inter-university research group (Messina, Bologna, Genoa, Milan) for the realization of the Lexicon Iconographicum Numismaticae ( LIN). The contributions record the point of view of numismatists, archaeologists, philologists and glottologists, historians (Eastern, Greek, Roman and medieval), in a variety of proposals and reflections that emblematically account for the multiplicity of opinions currently existing on the problem.

Proceedings of the III International Study Meeting of the Lexicon Iconographicum Numismaticae (Bologna, 12-13 September 2013).

The volume collects the contributions presented on the occasion of the international conference Money and territorial identity: from the ancient polis to the medieval civitas, held in Bologna on 12 and 13 September 2013. The intent of the publication is to offer an articulated vision on the proposed theme. , through the contributions of specialists from different disciplinary sectors, who offered the starting point for scientific reflections and comparisons. Within the extensive examination proposed, the numismatic documentation was analyzed in a diachronic and diatopic vision, according to the reading method proposed by the LIN project (Lexicon Iconographicum Numismaticae), which identifies the expression of a communicative language connected to the different cultural, political and ideological contexts from which it springs. In fact, attention was paid to the Greek and Roman world, but also to medieval reality and the dynamics of communication that are its own, identifying aspects of continuity or discontinuity with respect to the previous tradition.
