Работа посвящена результатам археологических разведок в округе античного укрепленного комплекса Масляная гора в 2014–2015 годах. Район исследований расположен в Юго-Западном Крыму, в нижнем течении р. Бельбек. Античное укрепление функционировало в IV–I веках до н.э., и в течение первого столетия существования, очевидно, представляло собой херсонесскую усадьбу. В ее округе обнаружены два поселения, находки из которых относятся к концу IV–III векам до н.э. Вероятно, данные селища связаны с носителями кизил-кобинской археологической культуры, историческими таврами. Ситуация, когда херсонесский укрепленный пункт был окружен селищами, в которых проживает местное оседлое население, характерна для «дальней» хоры Херсонеса, в особенности, Тарханкутского полуострова. Таким образом, комплекс Масляная гора структурно отличается от усадеб «ближней» хоры на Гераклейском полуострове и иллюстрирует иной принцип взаимодействия херсонеситов с местным населением. The paper is based upon the results of archaeological research in the area of ancient fortified complex Maslianaya Gora in 2014–2015. The area of investigation is located in the South-West Crimea, in the lower reaches the Belbek river. The fort existed in the 4th–1st centuries BC, and in the first hundred years of its existence it presumably was a Chersonesian farmstead. In the vicinities of the fort two settlements have been detected. The finds are dated to the late 4th–3rd centuries BC. The settlements tend to be related to the representatives of local Kizil-Koba culture, associated with Taurians. The situation when Chersonesian fort is surrounded by the unfortified settlements of local barbarian dependent dwellers is typical for the remote areas of Chora, especially for Tarchancut peninsula. Thus, the investigated complex is structurally different from the farmhouses of the adjacent Chora on the Heraclean Peninsula and illustrates a totally different principle of interaction of Chersonesians with the local population.

Tragom lončarije: kulturološke interakcije helenističke Budve

Tijekom iskopavanjâ antičke nekropole koja su se 1983. godine odvijala na položaju Vlaška njiva u Visu, u jednom od grobova pronađen je željezni pilum, vrsta dugačke sulice, oružja za bacanje koje su rabili pješaci. Riječ je o trenutno jedinstvenom nalazu oružja koje se veže uz materijalne ostatke helenističkih pogrebnih rituala prakticiranih u Isi na otoku Visu, grčkom urbanom naselju na središnjem dijelu istočnog Jadrana. Njegov kontekst djelomično su narušene pogrebne cjeline, u kojima su uz skeletne ostatke tijela dvaju pokojnika dokumentirani i keramički prilozi datirani u kasno 4. st. te prvu polovicu 3. st. pr.Kr. Tipološke analogije samog piluma sugeriraju da se radi o njegovoj ranoj varijanti, koju valja datirati u 4. st. pr. Kr. i ukazuju da je u pitanju jedinstveni nalaz na prostoru središnjeg istočnog Jadrana i njegova zaleđa. Upotreba konceptualno bliskih tipova oružja dokumentirana je u etruščansko-italskom i keltsko-iberskom kulturnom krugu, a pilum je sastavni dio opreme rimske republikanske i carske vojske. U kontekstu navedenog važno je naglasiti da je rani pilum iz Ise stariji od dosad poznatih najstarijih rimskih piluma iz 3. st. pr. Kr. Najbliže analogije samog predmeta, kao i kulturološke prakse ritualnog polaganja sličnog tipa oružja tijekom pogreba u grobove s pokojnikom, evidentirane su kod različitih indigenih zajednica na Apeninskom poluotoku, najčešće u grobovima muških pokojnika različite starosne dobi, pa je stoga i sam nalaz najvjerojatnije odraz kontakata sa suprotnom jadranskom obalom i njezinim zaleđem. Asocijacija oružja i smrti pruža uvid u dosad nepoznati aspekt isejskog pogrebnog običaja te govori u prilog raznolikosti kulturoloških identiteta stanovnika grada Ise u sklopu dinamične interakcije na prostoru srednjeg Jadrana., During excavations at the ancient necropolis which proceeded at the Vlaška njiva site in the town of Vis in 1983, an iron pilum (javelin), a throwing weapon used by infantry soldiers, was found in one of the graves. This is currently a unique weapon find which is associated with the physical remains of Hellenistic funerary rituals practiced in Issa on the island of Vis, a Greek urban settlement in the central part of the eastern Adriatic seaboard. Its context consists of partially devastated burial assemblages, in which the skeletal remains of two bodies and ceramic goods dated to the late 4th and first half of the 3rd century BC were documented. Typological analyses of the actual pilum suggest that this was one of its early variants, which should be dated to the 4th century BC, and indicate that this is a unique find in the central part of the eastern Adriatic seaboard and its hinterland. The use of similar type of weapon has been documented in the Etruscan-Italic and Celtic-Iberian cultural spheres, and the pilum was an integral component of equipment in the Roman republican and imperial armies. In the latter context, it is important to stress that the early pilum from Issa is older than the thus far oldest known Roman pilum from the 3rd century BC. The closest analogy to the item itself, as well as the cultural practices of the ritual depositing of similar weapon type into a grave with the deceased during a funeral has been recorded among various indigenous communities on the Apennine Peninsula, most often in the graves of men of various ages, so this find is most likely a reflection of contacts with the opposite shore of the Adriatic and its hinterland. The association between weapon and death offers some insight into a thus far unknown aspect of Issaean funerary customs and backs the view of a diversity of cultural identities of the residents of Issa as a component of dynamic interactions in the central Adriatic zone.

The shape of the ring askos has a long tradition: it had already appeared in the Bronze Age in Cyprus and Greece in the Late Mycenaean Age. In Medium-Tyrrhenian Italy the ring askoi, placed horizontally, were common during the Orientalizing period, with some specific exceptions relating to the Villanovan period. Examples in the Villanovan impasto pottery from Tarquinia, Veji, Bisenzio and Vetulonia with a bull, ram or horse protomes were also well known (IX-VIII century B.C.). As in Greece, also in Italy, animal heads are present on ring askoi of ancient production, but of a later date. However, after the Archaic period they disappeared. U.H. Rüdiger, who studied the askos, does not mention any ring askos with an animal head after the Archaic period. This study intends to highlight the traditional and innovative characteristics of the Faliscan Pottery workshop that produced the ring askos with an animal protome. Etruscan pottery of the Hellenistic age shows a preference for zoomorphic askoi commonly duck, deer and lion shaped. Extraordinary are, for this reason, five ring askoi with a griffin, or fawn or bird (?) protome respectively, produced at the same Faliscan Red-Figured Pottery workshop during the last three decades of the fourth century BC.

Un proyecto de investigación recientemente desarrollado en Calescoves (Alaior, Menorca), y en concreto las excavaciones llevadas a cabo en la Cova dels Jurats, han supuesto la documentación de un interesante conjunto de materiales cerámicos, en el que conviven elementos de producción local e importaciones. De estos últimos analizamos aquí un conjunto muy significativo, el perteneciente a los boles helenísticos procedentes de la zona jonia. Vinculados en su zona de origen al consumo de vino, la presencia de estos vasos en el santuario menorquín debe vincularse a los rituales y libaciones que se debieron llevar a cabo en la cueva. The research project recently carried out in Calescoves (Alaior, Menorca), and in particular the excavation in the Cova dels Jurats, has allowed us to study an interesting collection of ceramics, including both local and imported items. We will analyse here the Hellenistic bowls from the Ionian area. Linked in their original area to the consumption of wine, the presence of these vessels in this sanctuary must be linked to the rituals and libations that were due to perform in the cave.

WOS: 000293717000007, The excavation works being carried out since 1989 at Dorylaion (Eskisehir/Turkey) results in many findings belonging to different civilizations spanning from the First Bronze age to Ottoman period. One of the important groups of these findings is the moldmade bowls, familiarly known as the Megarian bowls from the Hellenistic period (330-30 B. C.). In a frame of an archaeometry project work, these artifacts were characterized with different analytical techniques. Wavelength dispersive X-ray fluorescence (WDXRF) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were used to study chemical and mineralogical composition of the bodies. Thermogravimetric-differential thermal analyses (TG-DTA) were performed to make the estimation of firing temperature of the sherds. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDX) were performed for the microstructural and microchemical characterization of body and slip layers of the selected potsherds. Based on the analyses results, the bowls should have been prepared from carbonated and siliceous clays and fired at the temperatures from 600 to 1000 degrees C. They have also iron-rich slip layers with different colors indicating probable adjustment of the redox conditions during firing. In addition, the effect of maximum firing temperature on microstructural characteristics was evaluated., Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TUBITAK) [106M463], This study was financially supported by the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TUBITAK) with the project number of 106M463.

U tekstu se objavljuju tri helenističke grobnice s brojnim keramičkim prilozima pronađene godine 1952. kod rasadnika palmi u Visu. Autor iznosi mišljenje da su pronađeni grobovi bili smješteni uz gospodarski objekt, nasuprot mišljenju da se radi o novoj isejskoj nekropoli. U grobove je bilo položeno od 31 do 37 predmeta, koji pripadaju različitim keramičkim stilovima: gornjojadranskoj keramici, Gnathia keramici, keramici s crnim premazom te običnoj finoj keramici (plain ware). U grobovima je nađen i jedan željezni strigil. Nije nam poznato koji su predmeti pripadali kojoj grobnici, jer su do dolaska arheologa svi nalazi vec bili izvađeni iz grobnica. S obzirom na brojnost pojedinih predmeta i samo tri groba, autor pretpostavlja da je svaki grob sadržavao oinohou, peliku, skifos i piksidu, dakle predmete koji se mogu vezati uz kulturu pijenja vina (osim pikside) i koji svjedoče da je vinogradarstvo i vino imalo istaknutu ulogu u gospodarstvu i životu isejske zajednice, što se ogleda i u pogrebnom ritualu. Ukopi kod rasadnika započeli su krajem 4. ili na samom početku 3. st. pr. Kr. istovremeni su i tipološki istovjetni s onima na Martvilu i Vlaškoj njivi (zapadnoj i istočnoj isejskoj nekropoli). Ukopi su iz razdoblja potpune afirmacije grada, kada Issa, kao grad rastućeg gospodarstva, započinje penetraciju na okolne južnojadranske i srednjojadranske prostore istočnog dijela Jadrana, s ciljem osnivanja vlastitih naseobina i svetišta, stvarajući svoju sympoliteia., This text contains a publication of three Hellenistic graves with numerous ceramic goods discovered at a palm nursery in Vis in 1952. The author expresses the opinion that the discovered graves were inside a farm building, in contrast to the view that this is a new Issa necropolis. 31 to 37 items were placed in each grave, which can be classified in various pottery styles: Upper Adriatic ware, Gnathian ware, black gloss ware and plain ware. An iron strigil was also found in the graves. Which items belonged to which grave is not known, because by the time archaeologists had arrived on the scene, all of the items had been removed from the graves. Given the high number of items and only three graves, this author assumes that each grave contained oenochoes, pelikai, skyphoi and pyxides, meaning items which may be associated with a wine-drinking culture (except the pyxides) and which testify to the fact that viniculture and wine played a major role in the economy and life of the Issa community, which is also reflected in burial rites. Interments at the nursery began at the late fourth or early third century BC, and they were contemporary and typologically identical to those at Martvilo and Vlaška njiva (the western and eastern Issa necropolises). The burials were from the era of full affirmation of the city, when Issa, as a city with a flourishing economy, began to penetrate into the surrounding southern and central zones of the Eastern Adriatic, with the goal of establishing their own settlements and shrines, creating their own sympoliteia.

Yüksek Lisans Tezi Menekşe Çatağı, Tekirdağ ili merkezine 13 km. uzaklıkta İstanbul-Tekirdağ karayolunun hemen güneyinde deniz kıyısındadır. Marmara Denizi’nin kuzey sahil şeridinde denizden 6.00-6.50 metre yükseklikteki bir kayalığın üzerinde yer alır. Bu alan Menekşe Deresi tarafından doğu ve batı olarak ikiye bölünmüştür. Bu çalışmada, 1993- 2000 yılları arasında Batı Çatak’ta yapılan kazı çalışmaları sonucu ele geçen Hellenistik Dönem’e ait seramik gruplarından 266 parça sunulmuştur. Menekşe Çatağı Hellenistik Dönem seramikleri, dokuz grup altında incelenmiştir. Bu gruplar içerisinde çoğunluğu içe dönük kaseler oluşturmaktadır. Menekşe Çatağı Hellenistik Dönem seramikleri çoğunlukla M.ö. 2. yüzyılda üretilmiştir. Bunun yanında, M.ö. 4. yüzyılın sonlarına tarihlenebilecek erken örnekler ve M.ö. 1. yüzyılın ortalarına kadar olan geç örnekler de görülmektedir.

remis en 1999 pour publication dans : O. Callot, P.-L. Gatier, Sanctuaires romains de la Syrie du Nord, tome II.; Rapport sur l'étude de plusieurs lots de céramique provenant de la fouille du temple de Burj Baqirah (Massif calcaire de Syrie du Nord) effectuée en 1996 et 1997. Le matériel le plus ancien est de la fin de l'époque hellénistique (IIe s. av. J.-C.), dans le secteur de l'autel. Le temple, construit à l'époque romaine a été transformé en habitat à la fin de l'époque byzantine (VIe s.), et occupé jusqu'à l'époque omeyyade (VIIe-VIIIe s.). Quelques fragments d'époque ayyoubide (XIIe-XIIIe s.) témoignent du passage de quelques nomades à cette époque.
