Abstract: Our knowledge of the second Iron Age has evolved considerably over the past 30 years as shown by several recent syntheses (Buchsenschutz et al., 2015; Garcia, 2014; Krausz et al., 2013; Guilaine, Garcia, 2018). In the more specific field of numismatics, research has focused mainly on the civilization of the oppida (late 2nd-Ist centuries BC), a period when there was already a significant monetarization of economic activities. But the realities prior to the emergence of the oppida remain largely unknown. Looking further upstream, as early as the 3rd century BC, this study looks at the triggers for the monetarisation of the economy in protohistoric societies at various targeted points in Europe. Does the transformation of trading systems result from a structural change in European societies?
