Despre un depozit monetar odessitan de perioadă preromană
On a Pre-Roman Odessitan Monetary Deposit

Summary/Abstract: Near the current town of Hârşova (Constanţa County), was discovered by chance, a deposit consisting of three bronze coins struck during the autonomous period of Odessos (Varna, Bulgaria). All belong to the same monetary type (the Great God) and have the same conservation status, respectively the same patina. From the data published so far, the Odessitani monetary program of the Autonomous Period appears isolated among the monetary discoveries specific to the Dobrudjan space, both in the native and in the Greek environment. The present ones are the first ones belonging to a monetary deposit, probably a small pocket sum belonging to a merchant coming from the Black Sea coast in the local environment, near one of the most important crossing ford fromDobrudja to Wallachia. The moment of their penetration seems to correspond to the end ofthe 3rd century or the greater part of the 2nd century BC. The cause is the shift of the human factor in the context of trade.
