EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Adverse Bronze Head of Assarius: A Glimpse into Ibero-Roman Coinage at the History Museum of Sabadell, Catalonia, Spain" This evocative image showcases an intricately detailed bronze head of Assarius, an Ibero-Roman deity, as depicted on an adverse (reverse) side of a coin minted at Iltircescen, now known as Tortosa in Catalonia, Spain. The coin, a testament to the rich cultural heritage of ancient Rome's influence in the Iberian Peninsula, is a stunning example of the region's Ibero-Roman coinage. Assarius, a god associated with fertility and abundance, was widely worshipped in the Iberian Peninsula during the Roman period. His image, often depicted wearing a Phrygian cap, was commonly featured on coins minted in various Roman colonies, including Iltircescen. The coin, made of bronze, is a marvel of ancient metalworking and minting techniques. The intricate details of Assarius's face, with its expressive features and individualized characteristics, reveal the skill and artistry of the mint workers who created it. The coin's obverse side bears the image of an emperor or a Roman god, while the reverse side showcases Assarius, highlighting the dual nature of the Roman coinage system. The History Museum of Sabadell, located in Catalonia, Spain, houses an extensive collection of Ibero-Roman artifacts, including this beautiful bronze coin. This museum, a treasure trove of ancient history, offers visitors a unique opportunity to explore the fascinating world of Ibero-Roman culture and its intricate connections to the Roman Empire. This image, with its captivating subject and historical significance, invites us to delve deeper into the ancient past and appreciate the art, culture, and history of the Iberian Peninsula during the Roman age.
