Korint B i srodne amfore s istočnojadranskih gradinskih lokaliteta

The paper presents a preliminary overview of the appearance of Corinth B and related types of amphorae on hillfort settlements along the Eastern Adriatic coast, more precisely from sites on the coast of Monte Negro and Western Herzegovina, Southern Dalmatian islands and Central and Northern Dalmatian coast. Within the Adriatic area these types of amphorae, dated from 4th century BC onwards, indicate more intensive wine trade and their analysis enables a discussion on agricultural, craft and trade activities of Hellenistic production centres, as well as on the subjects that participate in the latter. Recently, intensified archaeological excavations and site surveys aimed at studying the indigenous Iron Age population of the Eastern Adriatic coast led to an increase in the number of finds of these amphorae. Thus, their recent recording, especially in submarine, harbour or shipwreck contexts, receives a real meaning. Through morphological and macroscopical analysis, the material presented here suggests the circulation of original products from Ionian Corcyra, central Dalmatian Pharos, but also of products of unknown centres, enabling a discussion on the dynamic trade of wine and the wine culture in the indigenous population, shedding light on the details of which will, nevertheless, be possible only after processing larger assemblages from hillfort settlements.
