Source about financial/economical policies

by Sicambre

Hi everyone. I have to write a paper about the economy of the Early Roman Empire. More accuratly on monetarisation policies of Augustus. I already have a lot of articles and books for documentation, but I also need sources from the period. It could be an epigraphy, a papyri, anything that gives some informations about some monetary, financial or economical decision during the Empire. I am relatively new into Classical Studies, and would be glad if you can give some suggestions or ideas. Thank you very much!

(I am not anglophone, so sorry for my possible mistakes!)

Hollander, Money in the Late Roman Republic (2007) has a nice treatment of primary sources. (and has index locorum).

Same for Kay, Rome's Economic Revolution (2014).

PM me and I can help you gain access to those tomorrow, if you don't have it already (your institution library might have them available online also). Check out the index locorum to find epigraphic and papyrological sources, then go see what the author has to say about them via the provided page numbers.
