Статья посвящена изучению клейм на наиболее многочисленным в золотоордынском керамическом комплексе импортным византийским амфорам группы «Трапезунд», так же за ними закрепились описательные названия ...«амфоры с дуговидными ручками», реже – «грушевидные амфоры с дуговидными ручками» Амфоры этой группы составляют 99% всех находок импортной тарной керамики на территории Золотой Орды и поступали на протяжении всего периода существования в государстве оседлой жизни. Хотя клеймилось, вероятно, менее 1% амфор этой группы, общее число зафиксированных на различных памятниках клейм составляет уже несколько сотен. Более половины всех клейм на амфорах этой группы это эмблема в виде прямой сетки различных вариантов. Реже встречаются эпиграфические клейма с монограммами или полными формами имен или сложными лигатурами анаграмм. Византийские амфоры «трапезундской» группы с клеймами поступают на земли золотоордынского государства в первой половине XIV в.
The article deals with the study of stamps on the most numerous imported Byzantine amphoras of the "Trebizond" group in the Golden Horde pottery assemblage. Amphoras of this group make 99% of all ...finds of imported container ceramics on the territory of the Golden Horde and came throughout the entire period of the existence of sedentary life in the state. More than half of all stamps on amphoras of this group are an emblem in the form of a straight grid of various variants. Less often there are epigraphic stamps with monograms or full forms of names or complicated ligatures of anagrams. Byzantine amphoras of the "Trebizond" group with stamps came to the Golden Horde in the first half of the XIV century.

Of particular note, is a stamp of Diotimos most probably from Ainos (Thrace).
Abstract
Antique trade amphorae illuminate a little understood but important find category for Arabia, still in the twilight of publication. Most of the find data lie buried in unpublished work ...regarding recent excavations at ʿAqaba/Ayla. Recent research has verified mineralogically the origin of these documents and their dating. An example fortuitously found forms the basis of this find note.

In this paper, we study split graphs and related classes of graphs from the perspective of their sequence of vertex degrees and an associated lattice under majorization. Following the work of Merris ...16, we define blocks α(π)|β(π), where π is the degree sequence of a graph, and α(π) and β(π) are sequences arising from π. We use the block representation α(π)|β(π) to characterize membership in each of the following classes: unbalanced split graphs, balanced split graphs, pseudo-split graphs, and three kinds of Nordhaus-Gaddum graphs (defined in 5,3). As in 16, we form a poset under the relation majorization in which the elements are the blocks α(π)|β(π) representing split graphs with a fixed number of edges. We partition this poset in several interesting ways using what we call amphoras, and prove upward and downward closure results for blocks arising from different families of graphs. Finally, we show that the poset becomes a lattice when a maximum and minimum element are added, and we prove properties of the meet and join of two blocks.
Presents the results of the RACIIC International Congress (Roman Amphora Contents International Interactive Conference, Cádiz, 2015), dedicated to the distinguished Spanish amphorologist Miguel ...Beltrán Lloris. This volume aims to reflect on the current state of knowledge about the palaeocontents of Roman amphorae.
•Island geographies complicate issues of everyday supply, and usual assumptions about local sources for most imports may not apply.•Islands can develop maritime hinterlands based on local networks ...that intersect with broader circuits of movement and exchange.•Shared production of certain ceramic forms across large areas necessitates petrographic analysis to determine origins and identify trends.•Shipping during Late Antiquity created conditions for growth of communities along its path in southern Anatolia.
How do resource-poor island communities develop networks to ensure their supply of foodstuffs and basic commodities? The growth of the Late Antique (5th-7th century CE) town at Kekova Adası on the southern Turkish coast of Lycia offers an instructive case study. Underwater survey along the town’s harbor front yielded large quantities of amphoras, utilitarian and fine pottery, and ceramic building materials that testify to local consumption and transshipment activities on the island. The origins of these materials serve as proxy for the networks of exchange that underpinned life on Kekova Adası. Yet because many of the most common amphora and other pottery types were produced over wide areas of many hundreds of kilometers of coast in Late Antiquity, ceramic petrography is necessary to determine or more precisely define the origins of these materials and, in turn, the shape of the networks through which they moved. The results reveal that the inhabitants of Kekova Adası developed a hinterland for supply by sea that encompassed the coastal plain around Limyra some 40 km to the east as well as, seemingly, across the open sea to the southwest corner of Cyprus. While most of the bulk processed agricultural goods (particularly wine and oil) carried in these amphoras, and the ceramic building materials and other imported wares, derived from these two regions, this hinterland also intersected with larger networks of exchange that brought amphoras as well as fine and cooking wares from across the Levant, Cilicia, the east Aegean, and the northeast Peloponnese. This pattern articulates the integration and mutual interdependence of Kekova Adası’s local network with the particularly busy interregional route that supplied major urban centers and the state during this period. In the process, the case study highlights the necessity of ceramic petrography as a means of precisely reconstructing such networks.
Günümüzde Muǧla ili, Marmaris ilçesi, Turunç mahallesi sınırlarında bulunan Amos antik kenti ve çevresinde arkeolojik yüzey araştırmaları 2019 yılında başlatılmıştır. Çalışmalar sırasında kentin ...Akropolü olan Asarcık başta olmak üzere, Güneyde İncirlipınar vadisi, Kuzeyde Zeytinburnu ve Batıda Sandaleylik tepesinden çeşitli dönemlere ve farklı kullanım amaçlarına sahip seramikler ele geçmiştir. Bu seramikler, yerleşimin seramik repertuarını anlamak, seramik kronolojisini kurmak ve ticari ilişkilerini ortaya koymak adına deǧerli yeni veriler sunmuştur. Makalede, bu veriler içerisinden incelenen seçme örnekler ve istatistikler, kent çevresinde yerleşimsel aktivitenin Arkaik dönemde başladıǧına, kentin Rhodos'un siyasi ve ekonomik hegemonyası altında, yarımadadaki diǧer kentlere benzer biçimde, Hellenistik dönemde varsıllaştıǧına ve böylelikle çeşitli nitelikteki mal ve ürünlere erişebildiǧine işaret eder. Ticari amphora ve ithal seramik verileri, kentin antik dönem boyunca Rhodos ve Knidos başta olmak üzere, çevresiyle güçlü ticari ilişkiler kurduǧunu göstermektedir. Yarımadanın doǧusundaki Hieroteles gibi atölyelerde üretilen amphoraların Amos'taki güçlü temsili, bölge içi ekonomik ilişkilerin boyutlarını gösteren kanıtlardır. Özellikle doǧu Ege atölyelerinde üretilen kaliteli seramik ve amphoraların varlıǧı, Amos kırsalında tarımsal üretime dayalı yaşamın, genel inanışların aksine, Geç antik dönem sonuna kadar kesintisiz sürdüǧünü ve kentin dış alım gücünü ortaya koymuştur.
The objective of this study is to identify, by means of the analysis of the graffiti ante cocturam on the Roman amphoras, the different processes of production which are registered in the amphorae ...workshops. The olive oil produced in the Baetica served massively to nourish the western provinces of Roman Empire for more than 300 years. The standardization of the selected amphoric type, which extended over more than one hundred amphora workshops, allows us to observe certain patterns of similarity in the amphoric productions, at either a typological or epigraphic level, that allow us to understand the production organization of these amphoras. We apply here a development of the categorization of graffiti ante cocturam on these olive oil amphoras (i.e. Dressel 20) that allows us to analyze the set of the epigraphs which have been published so far from a new point of view. Our work focuses on the analysis of graffiti belonging to thirteen different archaeological surveys conducted on the surface of Monte Testaccio (Rome, years 1989 to 2000 and 2005). Before now the graffiti found in the different excavations of Monte Testaccio have been studied and published independently, and only through a global analysis can we present a joint vision of graffiti for more than a century, appreciating certain patterns or key trends which are important for understanding the different processes of production of the Dressel 20 amphorae in the production areas. The results suggest that the presence of numerals responds to a clear will on the part of the artisan collective who was dedicated to the manufacture of these amphoras to quantify the lots produced in any of the various phases of a production system. The fact that one is a part of a complex system of artisanal ceramic manufacturing at industrial levels necessitated a strict organizational control of all the productive phases. The continuity over time and the dispersion of the marking method in the territory makes us think of possible well-defined standardization processes, with learning processes common to the ceramic artisan communities and their possible mobility through the different workshops that produced the same type of amphora. The same results could be understood as part of the internal control of the contracted productions, as well as constituting a log of the internal logistics of the baking phase or for its control, when storing them in one of the first phases of formation of the amphora.
