This book is the first to explore the impact of coined money on the economy and society of Egypt, as well as its political implications for the formation of the Ptolemaic state. It argues that the introduction of coinage happened slowly, spreading gradually from Alexandria into the chóra. Under Ptolemy II, however, Egypt was aggressively monetised. Using both numismatic and papyrological evidence, the workings of a rural monetary economy are reconstructed in which coinage was in high demand but short supply, it is argued that, by the middle of the third century ВС, Egypt was much more thoroughly monetised than is usually assumed, but that the degree of monétisation was sustained only by an extensive credit economy as well as ad hoc commutation of monetary payments into kind. Conte.xtualising the complexities of credit and banking in rural Egypt, this book offers a new picture of their function in the ancient economv.
