<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kevin McGonigal, post: 7854606, member: 72790&quot;]Sulla, good write up. I am very much interested in prices of goods in ancient Rome, which, of course, in the case of grain, must have varied considerably with periodic disruptions of the grain supply by war, internal discord, and natural occurrences. As I have read, circa 100 BC, the subsidized price of grain was some 5/6 of an As. Do you happen to know what the unsubsidized price, the price of grain in the marketplace, was at that time? And again I realize that its price would vary with geography, proximity to grain producing regions. Any more information of the price of grain in the city of Rome, at any time from the late Republic to the early Empire, would be greatly appreciated from any other posters as well.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
