The monograph examines 103 painted vessels discovered during the
excavations of the necropolis of ancient Apollonia Pontica in the
1990s. The ceramic forms and images are examined in their
archaeological and cultural-historical context. Created in classical
Athens in the 5th-4th centuries BC, pictorial narratives on vessels
played the role of one of the most influential media in the
dissemination of the values of Athenian society. At the same time,
they clearly capture the identity of the multicultural community that
was formed on the territory of the Pontic city as a result of
contacts with various centres in the Mediterranean world, with the
inhabitants of Inner Thrace and with the powerful Thracian kingdoms
in the area. The edition contains 233 illustrations and 10 tables
with data on the context of the objects, the composition of the clay
and statistical information.
