SUMMARY:From Money to Metal: How to Operate a Civic Mint in the Roman Empire
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Dr. Kenneth W. Harl\, Professor Emeritus\, Department of History\, Tulane University \nBased on analysis of the coins themselves\, Professor Harl reconstructs how Greek cities in the Roman Empire manufactured and distributed bronzes coins. Not only do the coins reveal the stages of production by workers and the engraving of dies by artists\, but they also offer a means of calculating the output of money. The scale of production and organization of labor are both far more impressive than hitherto realized. The coins struck by mint of Marcianopolis (today Devnya\, Bulgaria) in the reign of the Emperor Macrinus (217-218) offer the test case for explaining how metal was turned into money.

SUMMARY:Lecture: Communal Water\, Invisible Labor: Modeling the Social Impact of Pompeii’s Street Fountains
DESCRIPTION:A lecture by Professor Matthew Notarian (Hiram College\, OH) \nAbstract: The remarkable preservation of the Roman city of Pompeii provides unprecedented insight into an aqueduct-fed urban water system. Visitors often marvel at the city’s network of public street fountains\, but few consider the practical consequences of the tedious but essential labor required to transport water into living spaces. Fountains served as neighborhood hubs\, channeling movement through streets and facilitating social interactions. Their distribution also influenced water accessibility\, with severe implications for public health and socioeconomic status. The burden of water collection fell heaviest on those at the margins of Roman society – sub-elite women\, children\, and\, especially\, the enslaved – classes which are virtually invisible in the textual and visual record. This talk will present the results of a complex digital spatial model that sheds light on these issues at a household-level scale\, as well as an ongoing project of 3D analysis that aims to quantify use-wear on public fountain basins. Together\, they represent a significant first step toward repopulating Pompeii’s streets with indispensable but often forgotten laborers.
