The history of money
Money or a form of currency has been around since man needed to exchange goods for other goods. This early form of exchange was bartering where 2 people who needed each others items would agree on a "price" or exchange value for the goods, for example, 1 chicken for a cabbage, potatoes or any other item that they agreed on. It was man-to-man or peer-to-peer. As humans advanced they changed the way they exchanged goods and items that considered to have a value were used, one of the earliest forms of items that had a percieved value was the Cowrie Shell. Cowry shells, especially Monetaria moneta, were used for centuries as currency in Africa. After the 1500s, however, it became even more common. Western nations, chiefly through the slave trade, introduced huge numbers of Maldivian cowries in Africa. The Ghanaian unit of currency known as the Ghanaian cedi, was named after cowry shells. Starting over three thousand years ago, cowry shells, or copies of the shells, were used as Chinese currency. They were also used as means of exchange in India.
The Romans had coins as currency, this was the next evolution in currency.
