About this blog
This blog, led by Will Leveritt, commemorates historical anniversaries from the Greek and Roman world through posts written by postgraduate and undergraduate students from the University of Nottingham. Each event is accompanied by a photograph of an authentic ancient coin taken by the blogging team using equipment from the University's Digital Humanities Centre.
