| description | Rescue excavations at Histria–“ Pescărie” uncovered a rich archaeological assemblage, mostly from the Hellenistic period. The finds probably come from a previously destroyed tumulus, where three burials were also found. The area where the research took place is located on the contact zone between the Early Roman extra muros neighbourhood and the tumuli belonging to the western necropolis of Histria. One explanation could be that in this area the Greek habitation is overlapped directly by a Roman tumulus (as suggested by the already excavated other tumuli situated in the near proximity – no. VII, VIII and XXXV dated to the third stage of the necropolis). It is also possible that the Greek finds originated in a tumulus from the autonomous period of the city, where secondary burials had also taken place. Accepting this interpretation would imply that the previously mentioned tumulus together with tumulus XXXVI, represent the earliest and the closest funerary structures to Hellenistic defence walls from the western plateau of the city. The archaeological assemblage consists of amphora stamps (from Thasos, Sinope, Rhodos, Cnidos, the Parmeniskos type), fragmentary mouldmade relief bowls, Attic decorated pottery, fragments of kantharoi (one with graffito), lamps etc. The amphora stamps suggest a date towards the middle of the 4th century BC (365/ 360 BC) until the first decades or the middle of the 2nd century BC. Best represented among all the types of finds is the 3rd century BC. Finds with an earlier date (first half of the 4th century, or even the end of the 5th century BC) or later than the middle of the 2nd century are rare. The only finds from the Roman times are bone items |
