This is the story of the mines, the markets, the goldsmiths and the merchants who, over the last 6,000 years, made gold a symbol of wealth and power.
Building on forty years’ experience investigating the modern market, Timothy Green has sought out its ancient origins in Mesopotamia, Egypt, Troy, Minoan Crete, Greece, China, Rome, Byzantium, Venice and Precolumbian South America.
