A Late Sasanian Coin Hoard from Orumiyeh
نویسندگان
چکیده مقاله:
The coinage of the Sasanian Empire (224-651 CE) is not only the most important primary source for its monetary and economic history, but also of greatest relevance for its history and art history.Coin hoards are of pivotal importance for studying Sasanian coinage. On August 29,2007,two jars were unearthed during the construction work for the new border sentry post of “Havār-Barxāh-loh” in the Piran-Shahr region (close to the frontier village of Tamar-Chin, about 35 kilometres away from Piran-Shahr).The work was carried out by military personnel belonging to the frontier guard’s regiment. The jars contained altogether 1267 Sasanian silver coins, mostly from the Khusro II (590–628) period. Also numerous drachms of Khusro I (531–578) and Ohrmazd IV (578–590) were present, as well as a few late pieces of Ohrmazd VI, Queen Azarmigdukht, and one early Arab-Sasanian drachm.

متن کاملA Nonmeasurable Set from Coin Flips
To motivate the elaborate machinery of measure theory, it is desirable to have an example of a set which is not measurable in some natural space. The usual example is the Vitali set, obtained by picking one representative from each equivalence class of R induced by the relation x ∼ y iff x − y ∈ Q. The translation-invariance of Lebesgue measure implies that the resulting set is not Lebesgue-mea...

متن کاملTossing a Biased Coin
When we talk about a coin toss, we think of it as unbiased: with probability one-half it comes up heads, and with probability one-half it comes up tails. An ideal unbiased coin might not correctly model a real coin, which could be biased slightly one way or another. After all, real life is rarely fair. This possibility leads us to an interesting mathematical and computational question. Is there...
