  • The Natural History of a Caeretan Hydria
    BABESCH 91 (2016), 69-85. doi: 10.2143/BAB.91.0.3175644 The Natural History of a Caeretan Hydria John K. Papadopoulos Abstract One of the most extraordinary renderings of various sea creatures is the well-known and often-published Caere- tan hydria now in the Niarchos Collection. In contrast to the accurately rendered seal, which is rare in Greek art of all periods, octopus, and dolphins, the central creature that dominates the scene is usually considered as an imaginary sea monster, a ketos. The purpose of this paper is to suggest that the central creature is no sea monster, but a fairly accurate representation of one of the most elusive creatures of the sea: an oarfish, of the family Regalecidae.

  • Black-Glazed, Red-Figure, and Grey Ware Pottery
    30448_panskoye_pc_.qxd 06-10-02 14:05 Side 127 BLACK-GLAZED, RED-FIGURE, AND GREY WARE POTTERY Lise Hannestad, Vladimir F. Stolba, Helene Blinkenberg Hastrup This chapter deals with the black-glazed (B 4-219) and grey ware pottery (B 220-242) from U6, and also includes three red-figure fragments found in the complex (B 1-3). RED-FIGURE POTTERY (B 1-3) Three pieces of Attic red-figure pottery were found in U6 (Pls. 68 and 70). B 1 is a small sherd, probably of a stemless cup, with the head and shoulders of a satyr. The style is early 4th century, and this piece undoubtedly derives from the period prior to the construction of U6, where it probably came to rest when already broken. B 3 is the upper part of an askos in a very late Kertch style. It remains an open question whether it was complete and in use in the initial phase of U6, or whether, by that time, only the upper part was kept for the sake of the painted decoration with the four heads. BLACK-GLAZED WARE (B 4-219) A number of the pieces of black-glazed ware are undoubtedly of Attic origin, whereas this is uncertain for others, and some are definitely from other, not yet localised centres, as indi- cated by the types of clay, and in particular the inclusion of minerals, which can be identi- fied in many of the black-glazed vessels from U6, but are, according to Rotroff, not visible in Attic pottery of the Hellenistic period.1 The Black Sea area was certainly the most impor- tant export area for Attic pottery in the 4th century and the early Hellenistic period,2 and no other similarly important source of black-glazed pottery found in that region has yet been suggested.

  • 192 Introduction
    192 Introduction Antiquities are easily described in just a few simple words: ‘objects, buildings or works of art from ancient times’. This perhaps rather stark definition, although true, fails to capture the elusive magic that one can experience in the presence of something thousands of years old. Often whilst examining an antiquity, turning it about in our hands, it is not unusual to encounter a moment of illumination that brings it to life. This sudden revelation may be caused by a dribble of paint (the result of a too-full brush), the short parallel marks of the sculptor’s chisel on stone, or the thumbprint the potter left when the clay was still wet. At such instances something remarkable happens: the centuries roll away and we are next to the ancient artist or craftsman, someone just like ourselves in many respects but living in an utterly different world. This is a strangely moving experience, unnerving, direct and personal; more immediate than walking through archaeological sites, temples or tombs. Time contracts and we become part of a great continuum. It is akin to listening to music or seeing a great painting and one of the thrills of civilisation. Used as we are to seeing antiquities locked inside glass cabinets in museums, it is easy to forget that, whether part of the paraphernalia of funerary rites, votive offerings or luxury goods for a wealthy elite, they were familiar elements of daily life in the ancient world. It is naturally a privilege to possess these objects which have, through accident or good fortune, survived the ravages of age.

  • Pontica 42 Supplementum 1
    GREY POTTERY FROM THE LATE CLASSICAL/EARLY HELLENISTIC PERIOD OLBIA NECROPOLIS BASED ON MATERIALS FROM THE HERMITAGE MUSEUM Y.I. ILYINA Keywords: ordinary undecorated grey pottery, Late Classical/Early Hellenistic period, Olbia, necropolis, local production. Abstract: The purpose of this article is to present examples of ordinary undecorated grey pottery discovered in Olbian necropolis. Nowadays these pieces can be found in Hermitage museum. These materials date from Late Classical/Early Hellenistic period. They were discovered in excavations carried out at the end of the 19th– beginning of the 20th centuries. Older studies focused especially on ceramics discovered inside the settlement. This is why a complex analysis of funerary finds from the Olbian necropolis had to complete these studies. The most frequent shapes in the excavated graves are: fish- plates, jugs, small lekythoi, amphorae and small bowls. Pottery is the material found on a larger scale than any other which is always the object of scholars’ special interest. These works enable scholars to resolve such issues as the emergence and development of trade relations between various parts of the Ancient World and the time when colonies appeared. Ordinary undecorated pottery is important because it was mainly used for everyday domestic purposes in view of its relative cheapness in comparison with painted pottery. In recent years, from amidst the vast mass of undecorated pottery, grey pottery has attracted the closest attention from scholars. The first main types of grey and red pottery from the Hellenistic period were singled out from the materials originating from the excavations at Olbia in 1935 and 1936 and these samples were also used for chemical and technical studies1.

  • The Hellenistic and Roman Fine Pottery
    II The Later 4th and 3rd Centuries BCE 1. Introduction: Fine Pottery in Sicily in the Later 4th and 3rd Centuries BCE The fills associated with the capture of Morgantina by the Romans in 211 BCE cast valuable light on the chronology of Hellenistic Sicilian tablewares. e destruction deposits at Gela (ca. 280 BCE) and a vast series of graves on Lipari (sacked by the Romans in 252 BCE, with most of the graves dated before that event and only a few after it), provide a picture of ceramic development on Sicily during the later 4th century and through the first half of the 3rd century. However, the deposits at Gela are limited in size, and one may also conjecture that the funerary assemblages on Lipari are specialized and do not wholly reflect the range of pottery used in domestic contexts.1 is seems to be demonstrated by appendix 3 below, which correlates the black-gloss shapes from the 3rd-century fills at Morgantina with the shapes commonly found in the graves on Lipari. Enormous numbers of some shapes have been found in the graves, a few examples of other shapes, but no examples of a good number of vase types. Taken together, however, the ceramics from the destructions at Gela, the cemeteries on Lipari, and the late-3rd-century BCE fills at Morgantina provide a reasonably full picture of 3rd-century Sicilian ceramics. There are useful contexts from this period at other sites on Sicily. Tomb assemblages at Assoros north of Enna, Butera near Gela, Montagna di Marzo (ancient Herbessos, south of Morgantina), and Morgantina provide information about
