283.5关于查理曼传以及盎萨货币
283.5关于查理曼传以及盎萨货币 (第1/2页)此前,我一直把中世纪一词跟盎萨英伦时代,混在一起用,
但随着资料的查阅,虽然中世纪可以包含盎萨时代,但跨度太长,用盎萨时代应该更精确点。
本书应该是属于盎萨中期。
不知道为什么盎萨早期的资料,我看到的会比中期多???
就如上章正文所说,到了更之后时期,市场流通的各种货币,非常繁琐,只有相对通用。
肯特是盎萨七国时,第一个发行的,还有联合金币等,埃拉王钱币也是当代。
重新建构货币体系吧,这样就能有明确点的物价观感。
由于查找到了详细的例子,我才决定写英磅(鹰磅),
还有盎萨七国时代媒介日常货币使用,罗马古钱的使用,有空再来讨论。
......
我之前也提过,不少学者讨论指出,查理曼打萨克森,引发北欧大动荡。
异端们瑟瑟发抖抱团,大批人北逃。
我今天看了查理曼传
