Svoronos, J.N. "Ulysse chez les Arcadiens et la Télégonie d'Eugammon à propos des types monétaires de la ville de Mantinée," Études Archéologiques et Numismatiques. Premier Fascicule, Paris and Athens 1889. (Originally printed in Gazette archéologique 1888) 28 pages, 1 plate of engravings. 4to (23x30cm), new tan half leather with brown spine letters (Types Monétaires de Mantinée). Bound in are mounted original printed paper covers and additional heavy paper leaves. Interior As New. Daehn 4349

A note from BCD: A long, detailed discourse unfolds from the obverse interpretation of a rare Mantineian drachm. Svoronos, being a master storyteller, will weave into the plot exciting new characters to maintain our interest. He ends with a prophetic plea to archaeologists to pay more attention to excavation coins.
