Frome Hoard (original) (raw)
The Frome Hoard is a hoard of 52,503 Roman coins found in April 2010 by metal detectorist Dave Crisp near Frome in Somerset, England. The coins were contained in a ceramic pot 45 cm (18 in) in diameter, and date from AD 253 to 305. Most of the coins are made from debased silver or bronze. The hoard is one of the largest ever found in Britain, and is also important as it contains the largest group ever found of coins issued during the reign of Carausius, who ruled Britain independently from 286 to 293 and was the first Roman Emperor to strike coins in Britain. The Museum of Somerset in Taunton, using a grant from the National Heritage Memorial Fund (NHMF), acquired the hoard in 2011 for a value of £320,250.

dbo:abstract | Der Hort von Frome, ein Hortfund aus etwa 52.500 römischen Münzen aus der zweiten Hälfte des 3. Jahrhunderts n. Chr., wurde im Jahre 2010 in einem Feld nahe der Stadt in Somerset in England mit einem Metalldetektor gefunden. Die Münzen lagen in einem bis zum Rand gefüllten Topf. Im Jahre 1867 waren auf dem Feld bereits 111 und unmittelbar vor dem Fund 62 verstreute Münzen gefunden worden. Die Bergung durch herbeigerufene Archäologen dauerte drei Tage. Der Fund ist einer der größten jemals in Großbritannien gemachten. Sein Wert wurde auf £ 320.250 geschätzt. Über 760 der Münzen gehören zu Marcus Aurelius Mausaeus Carausius († 293), einem ehemaligen Feldherrn der römischen Armee, Gegenkaiser zu Maximian und Diokletian, dessen siebenjährige Herrschaft über England und Teile des nördlichen Galliens weitgehend in Vergessenheit geriet, da er von seinem Quaestor Allectus oder in dessen Auftrag ermordet wurde. Zum gesamten Schatz gehören Silber- und Bronzemünzen von 21 Kaisern und drei Kaisergattinnen. Die 67 verschiedenen Prägungen stammen aus den Jahren 253 bis 293 n. Chr., so dass der Schatz wahrscheinlich kurz vor dem Ende des 3. Jahrhunderts deponiert wurde. Der Hort war vermutlich eine kommunale Votivgabe an die Götter. Die Entdeckung der Münzen folgt im selben Jahr wie die Entdeckung eines Schatzes angelsächsischer Münzen in Mittelengland. Dieser so genannte Schatz von Staffordshire enthält mehr als 1500 Objekte, zumeist aus Gold.

Les pièces étaient rassemblées dans un vase en céramique de 45 cm de diamètre. L'ensemble est daté des années 253 à 305. La plupart des pièces sont de bronze et d'argent. Ce dépôt monétaire est l'un des plus importants jamais trouvé en Grande-Bretagne. Il est également remarquable par son contenu qui comprenait le plus vaste ensemble jamais trouvé de monnaies émises sous Carausius, usurpateur romain ayant régné indépendamment sur la province romaine de Bretagne de 286 à 293. Le musée de Somerset dans le Taunton, grâce à une subvention de la National Heritage Memorial Fund (NHMF), a acquis le trésor officiellement évalué à £ 320 250. (fr) Il tesoro di Frome è un ritrovamento di 52.503 monete romane di imperiali di argento e bronzo, avvenuto a Frome nella contea di Somerset in Gran Bretagna nell'aprile 2010. Le monete sono state trovate dal cercatore di tesori Dave Crisp: rilevate grazie al metal detector, erano contenute in una giara che si trovava nel terreno a circa 30 cm. di profondità. Si stima che il valore complessivo si aggiri oltre i 3 milioni di sterline. Le monete sono di 67 diverse tipologie, in prevalenza di bronzo, e sono databili tra il 253 e il 305 d.C. Sono state esposte durante una conferenza stampa al British Museum l'8 luglio 2010: in seguito (15-31 luglio), una parte del tesoro è stata esposta alla Gallery 68 del Museo londinese. (it) |
