1. Title: "Ancient Roman Quadrans Coin from Emporiae (L'Empordà), Catalonia, Spain: A Glimpse into the Economy and Mythology of the Roman Empire" This print showcases an ancient Roman Quadrans coin, discovered in Emporiae, Catalonia, Spain. The obverse side of the coin features an image of Pallas Athena, the Greek goddess of wisdom and war, holding a spear and an olive branch in her hands. The goddess is depicted with a helmet adorned with an "A" monogram, symbolizing Athena. The reverse side of the coin displays Pegasus, the mythical winged horse, with a lion in an attacking stance beneath it. The lion's fierce expression and the powerful muscles of Pegasus are intricately detailed, highlighting the skill of the ancient Roman engravers. The coin is made of bronze and was minted in Unticescen, an ancient Roman mint located in Emporiae. The presence of this coin in Catalonia provides evidence of the economic connections between the Roman Empire and the region during ancient times. The image of Pallas Athena on the obverse side represents the importance of wisdom and knowledge in the Roman society. Meanwhile, the image of Pegasus and the attacking lion on the reverse side may symbolize the power and strength of the Roman Empire. This Quadrans coin, with its intricate designs and historical significance, offers a fascinating glimpse into the economy, mythology, and art of the ancient Roman Empire. Its discovery in Catalonia, Spain, underscores the extensive reach of Roman influence and trade during that period. The Museum of Sabadell in Catalonia now houses this precious artifact, preserving it for future generations to appreciate and study the rich history of the Roman Empire.
