| Additional information |
The Cessetani occupied the coastal territory around modern Tarragona — Kese in Iberian — and were among the more prolific issuers of Iberian bronze coinage during the period of deepening Roman consolidation in Hispania Citerior. Their mint output reflects a community navigating Roman administrative pressure while maintaining indigenous monetary traditions, striking coins with Iberian script at a time when many neighboring peoples had already begun accommodating Latin.
