New Ways of Seeing the Past: Machine Learning, X-ray Fluorescence, and the Coins of Rome and Ancient Judea In-Person
With Yaniv David Levy, of the Israel Antiquities Authority.
Coins are one of the most ubiquitous artifacts of Mediterranean archaeology. However, many surface in a poor state for analysis. Even with modern conservation techniques, many remain unidentified or imprecisely identified. Yet machine learning and x-ray fluorescence can help us. AI is now providing data about ancient coins that would otherwise be lost. This talk looks at the impact of these technologies on the coins of the Hasmoneans (Maccabees) and Jewish rebels against Rome.
