Din punct de vedere al centrelor de producție, cele 17 ștampile se distribuie astfel: 10 documentează amfore de Thasos, două provin de la amfore produse la Heracleea Pontica, patru ștampile aparțin amforelor de Sinope și doar una celor ale Chersonesului Tauric. Chiar dacă o parte dintre ștampile au fost publicate anterior, am considerat utilă republicarea lor (cu unele corecturi și rectificări), acestora li se mai adaugă câteva exemplare inedite.

In the course of time, the few archaeological excavations carried out, as well as a series of random finds, uncovered a varied range of decorative marble elements. These finds are structural elements (bases, columns and capitals) as well as pieces of liturgical apparatus (pilasters, small columns and finials of the chancel bannister). The pieces were manufactured from the best material available, Proconnesus and Aphrodisias marble. The range of decorative motifs of the finds is limited to crosses and vegetal decoration (acanthus leaves), very simplified and schematic. The occurrence of such marble pieces at the site of Ibida, proves the inclusion of this religious edifice in the wide beautification program attributed to the reign of Justinian I, which was implemented on the whole territory of the Scythia Province. <br> <br> <strong>Key...

(cu 12 tabele, 30 diagrame, 20 figuri şi două planşe în text şi şapte figuri şi 112 planşe la sfârşitul acestuia) De mai bine de trei decenii, principala lucrare la care se raportează specialiştii preocupaţi de ceramica romană din Dacia este cea care-i aparţine "patriarhului" acestei categorii de artefacte, Gheorghe Popilian (Ceramica romană din Oltenia, Craiova 1976). Acesteia i se va adăuga, cu siguranţă, cea pe care-o prezentăm în rândurile ce urmează. Apărută sub egida Muzeului Naţional de Istorie a Transilvaniei şi a Centrului de studii romane din cadrul Universităţii "Babeş-Bolyai" Cluj-Napoca, în condiţii grafice de excepţie, cartea Vioricăi Rusu-Bolindeţ, concepută iniţial ca teză de doctorat, reprezintă al XXV-lea volum din cadrul consacratei serii Bibliotheca Musei Napocensis şi cuprinde Prolegomena (semnată de prof. univ. dr. Ioan Piso, coordonatorul ştiinţific al tezei) (p. 9-10), Cuvânt înainte (p. 11-14), I. Introducere (p. 15-67), II. Napoca romană (p. 68-100), III. Repertoriul formelor ceramice (p. 101-433), IV. Caracteristici mineralogice şi petrografice ale ceramicii romane din Napoca (autori Corina Ionescu şi Lucreţia Ghergari) (p. 434-462), V. Concluzii finale (p. 463-470) şi VI. Anexe (p. 471-681). Este cunoscut faptul că, în cadrul descoperirilor din orice sit arheologic, ceramica reprezintă, de departe, principala categorie de artefacte. În Cuvânt înainte, autoarea recunoaşte, cu modestie, că, în studiul acesteia, "este foarte dificil, dacă nu imposibil, de atins idealuladică de a cunoaşte, în egală măsură, fiecare categorie ceramică în parte, pentru a oferi o imagine de ansamblu, cât mai obiectivă, asupra acestui aspect al vieţii economice". Acesta este şi motivul pentru care Viorica Rusu-Bolindeţ s-a oprit, cu precădere, asupra veselei ceramice, opaiţele, amforele, teracotele şi materialele de construcţie fiind considerate, în stadiul actual al cercetării, ca domenii aparte ale ceramicii romane.

Bringing together bioarcheological data, this study contributes to understand the subsistence economy during a period of sociopolitical changes in the region. The stratigraphical sequences and the preliminary observations made on the archeological materials (ceramics, metal artifacts, coins) indicate a relative chronology beginning with the second to third centuries AD and lasting until the sixth century AD. Phytolith analysis highlights the clear domination of the grasses (Poaceae) and indicates the presence of cereals within the fortress. In the surroundings of the fortress, it appears to have existed an open environment. Although modest, the percentage of the Spheroid phytoliths suggests the presence of woody dicots, indicating the fact that the...

From the presentation of the Western amphorae types discovered in the Lower Danube region, it's easily noticeable that Hispanic, followed by the Italic products predominate. These were mainly found in the fortified cities along the Danubian limes: Novae, Carsium, Beroe, Arrubium, Aegyssus, Halmyris; as one advances downstream, the percentage of the vessel discussed here diminishes, the resulting idea being that these products entered the Moesia Inferior trough the Eastern Adriatic harbours, these crossed Dalmatia and Moesia Superior. The absence of the Western products in the West-Pontic cities (except for the two Dressel 14 type amphorae from Parthenopolis) confirms that these ones were mainly influenced by the Orient even after the Roman conquest.

The earliest production center for this type of amphorae was discovered at Seleucia; it dates from III rd - IV th centuries and only produced pieces included by the author in the C variant. The latest research revealed the existence of other two production centers situated in the southern Black Sea, one at Demirci (in the Sinopean territory), the second at Alapi (in the Heraclean territory), which begin their production at the end of the IV th century or at the beginning of the V th century. The amphora type discussed is documented in several circumpontic sites, in layers dated between the end of the IV th century and in the V th century for variants A, B, D and between the end of the IV th and the beginning of the VII th centuries for variant C.
