AB  - The Mezul I hoard was discovered in 1966 in the area of Bobovik, a site on Mezul, in the vicinity of Smederevo. It consists of 272 denarii and antoniniani, spanning the period from Caracalla to Trajan Decius. Another hoard of Roman coins was discovered in the immediate vicinity in that same year, on the same site in the Mazgaj area (Mezul II; Trajan – Philip I). The character of architectural remains at Mezul cannot be clarified without the appropriate archaeological explorations, so the question remains open about whether they were just from a villa rustica or a civilian settlement. Both hoards were found in immediate proximity to the vicinal road (Vinceia i.e. Smederevo – present-day Smederevska Palanka and further on to the south), not far from the main via publica. The listing of numerous, so far unpublished finds from the Roman period, can confirm this route of the vicinal road, which was already proposed earlier. At the same time, they indicate that two other vicinal roads (viae vicinales) led from Smederevska Palanka, towards Kosmaj and Rudnik, strategically important mining zones in the interior of the province of Moesia Superior.

A Hoard fo Roman Silver Coins from the Village of Supska near Ćuprija (Supska II)

AB  - The Supska II hoard of Roman coins contains 933 denarii and two antoninians.
It was discovered in the village graveyard in the village of Supska in the immediate
neighbourhood of ancient Horreum Margi (present-day Ćuprija), an important point
on the Viminacium – Naissus via publica. Despite incomplete archaeological evidence
on the site, we can assume that in the immediate vicinity of Supska there was an agricultural
estate and that this find constituted the savings of the owner of a villa. The
earliest specimens in the find are the denarii of Marcus Antonius/Galba, and the last
is a denarius of Maximinus I, dated to between January/autumn (?) of 236, and the beginning
or first three months of 238. There may be several, different reasons for burial,
given the broad approximation of the date to during the short-lived rule of Maximinus
I – internal fiscal policy and the violence of the local administrations when collecting
taxes, the campaigns against the Sarmati and Dacians, about which historiography
has little to tell, or the preparations for the campaign Maximinus was going to launch
against Rome at the beginning of AD 238. The probability that the hoard was not collected
in its entirety at the site where it was found, leaves open the question as to the
cause of its burial.

А Hoard of Roman Silver Coins from the Village of Mehovine near Šabac

AB  - The hoard of silver coins from the village of Mehovine near Šabac, according
to data available from earlier literature and the factual state, contains 489 (150) specimens,
ranging from Nero to Maximinus I, and represents part of a larger, scattered
find. The terminus post quem of the hoard’s burial can be seen from the denarii dated to
the period from January 236 A.D. to the start or the first quarter of 238 A.D., although
one should not overlook the fact that the find was scattered. It was discovered in the
context of a villa rustica, suggesting that it belonged to the owner of the property. The
reasons for its burial, given the broad approximation of the date to within the brief
rule of Maximinus I, could be dual – internal fiscal policy and the violence of soldiers
and of the local administration, or Maximinus’ preparations for a campaign on Rome
in early 238 A.D., bearing in mind that the emperor had his base in those years in the
immediate vicinity of Mehovine, in Sirmium.
