<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ardatirion, post: 704694, member: 9204&quot;]Currency does not need to be paper. It can be coins or shells or spears, for that matter. In this instance, I&#039;m talking about something that can be called &quot;primitive money.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m well aware. And the Greeks were using particular weights of precious metals. What I&#039;m saying is that, in the West, the development of ANY form of currency is taught as beginning with coins in Lydia. In the East, it starts logically with &quot;primitive money.&quot;[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
