Analyzing the coins from the Harvard-Cornell Sardis Excavation during the period 1973 to 2013, Evans focuses here on coins dating from the Lydian period to the late Byzantine period, noting that Islamic coins will be published separately. She begins by looking at excavation coins as evidence of the economy and trade during the Lydian period, the Hellenistic era from the late fourth to early third century BC, the early imperial era: Augustus to the second century, from the third century through the fifth, and the Byzantine period: sixth through 13th centuries. Then she explores archaeological contexts of note, among them theater deposits, the votive deposit in Field 49, the Wadi B Temple, Hellenistic burials, coins used as amulets, and hoards.
