Both Roman and provincial coins demonstrate a dialogue of power.The competition between Mark Antony and Octavian to be Caesar's heir is discussed, as are the coins of the assassins, Brutus and Cassius. The increasing use of divine imagery and divine ideology is explored: Julius Caesar is deified, and Pompey the Great becomes aligned with Neptune. Coinage can also reveal the competition that continued between key political players even during their alliances, and the increased visibility of woman (with a focus on Octavia and Fulvia).","PeriodicalId":413755,"journal":{"name":"From Caesar to Augustus (c. 49 BC–AD 14)","volume":"440 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115269637","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
