<p>[QUOTE="Gao, post: 1062016, member: 19409"]I've found that a bunch of academic sources refer to all Roman grain as "corn," including Geoffrey Rickman's <i>The Corn Supply of Ancient Rome</i>. I think it's a British thing. Maize had not yet been introduced to Europe at the time, so they definitely weren't referring to that in the description of this coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
