W tekście przeprowadzono analizę relacji dotyczących pieniądza jakie pojawiają się w Vita Porphyrii episcopi Gazensis. W dziele Marka Diakona pieniądz pojawia się w kilku kontekstach, a mianowicie w działalności biskupstwa w Gazie, jako darowizny otrzymane przez palestyńskie Kościoły od dworu cesarskiego w Konstantynopolu (od cesarza Arkadiusza i jego żony Aelii Eudoksji) oraz pieniądza rozdawanego w ramach działalności dobroczynnej. Niestety w Vita Porphyrii nie odnajdujemy informacji na temat ówczesnych cen i płac. Wątpliwa jest również wartość poznawcza tego tekstu, także w kwestii zasadności wymienianych w nim sum pieniężnych.

The paper analyses the reports regarding money which appear in the Vita Porphyrii episcopi gazensis. In the work of Marc the Deacon, money appears in several contexts: as involved in various activities of the bishoprics in Gaza; as a donation to a church given by the imperial court (the emperor Arcadius and his wife the empress Aelia Eudoxia); and as sums donated to charity (also by the bishopric of Gaza). However, in Vita Porphyri we find no information about the prices and wages of the time. Another problem is the credibility of the reports when it comes to the amounts of money mentioned. Unfortunately, it is extremely difficult to verify their credibility with any degree of certainty.

The paper analyses the reports regarding money, which appear in the Historia religiosa writen by Theodoret of Cyrus. Historia religiosa, on the one hand, presents the life of the Syrian monks, and the other hand depicts the realities of everyday life of the inhabitants of the collapsed provinces of the Roman East at the turn of the fourth and fifth century. On this occasion, we also find in Historia religiosa nu­merous references to the role of money in everyday life. In the work of Theodoret money appears in several contexts: as an important element of trade on the market, as taxes, as a ransom paid for releasing captives but also as a money in welfare ac­tivities (amounts of money donated to charity). Unfortunately, in Historia religiosa, we didn’t found any information about the prices and wages. The analyzed reports, despite a certain lack of precision, are a valuable sources of knowledge. They depicts everyday life in eastern provinces, “stories” unknown to the “great history”, allow­ing for a reconstruction of social and economic history of the later Roman Empire.
