The Greeks and Romans in the Black Sea presents the Proceedings of
the Sixth International Congress on Black Sea Antiquities,
dedicated to the 90th birthday of Prof. Sir John Boardman,
President of the Congress since its inception. It was held in
Constanta in September 2017 with the same theme as the first of
these congresses, which took place just down the coast in Varna 20
years earlier ('the Greeks and Romans in the Black Sea and the
importance of the Pontic region for the Graeco-Roman world between
the 7th century BC and 5th century AD'), celebrating the work of
successive congresses in bringing together scholars and scholarship
from Eastern and Western Europe and the extensive progress of
'Black Sea Studies' in the intervening years. Overall, 85 papers
were received for publication from authors in Western and Eastern
Europe-there is also a full set of the abstracts submitted to the
Congress in Appendix 2. As with previous congresses, the work is
divided into sections, the largest of which, the fourth, is,
following a pattern established with the first congress, devoted to
New Excavations and Projects. The opening lectures and various
papers in the first sections reflect (on) the '20 years on' in the
title. The vast majority of contributions are in English, a handful
each in French and German.
Settlements and Necropoleis of the Black Sea and its Hinterland in
Antiquity contains a selection of some two dozen of the papers from
an international conference held in October 2017 at Tekkeköy in
Samsun, ancient Amisos, on the Turkish Black Sea coast. The
archaeology sessions included presentations not only on the
Tekkeköy/Samsun region but also on other parts of the Black Sea.
They were presented by participants from Bulgaria, France, Georgia,
Romania, Russia, Turkey and the United Kingdom. The selection
offered here includes almost all of the contributions on
archaeology and ancient history. The papers cover all shores of the
Black Sea, studying (once again), the establishment dates of some
Greek colonies, East Greek transport amphorae, the Black Sea on the
Tabula Peutingeriana, the history of Tekkeköy, a Sinopean from
Tomis, imports at Açic Suat (Caraburun), arrowhead and
dolphin-shaped monetary signs from Berezan, the pre-Roman economy
of Myrmekion, the necropolis of Porthmion, Artyushchenko-1
settlement on the Taman Peninsula, South Pontic imports at
Classical sites in Ajara, recent excavations in Gonio-Apsarus, the
Alaca Höyük Chalcolithic culture in coastal settlements, the
Baruthan Tumuli at Amisos, iron finds from the Fatsa Cıngırt
Kayası excavations, new excavations at Amastris, ancient
Sebastopolis, politics and diplomacy in Paphlagonia, the Great
Göztepe tumulus in Paphlagonia, Amasya-Oluz Höyük, the Iron Age
sites of Zile district, Byzantine finds at Komana, glass bracelets
from Samsun Museum, and dating the Kavak Bekdemir Mosque in Samsun.
The book consists of 49 papers and two Appendices. The themes

Every year archaeological research is producing new evidence for
the study of Greek colonisation. The eight essays in this
collection dedicated to Sir John Boardman provide an up-to-date
survey of these new discoveries. They introduce new approaches to
handling both the old and new data, pointing out at the same time
the gaps and possible future directions for the study of Greek
colonisation from the archaeological viewpoint. Contributors
include A M Snodgrass (The growth and standing of the early Western
colonies), M R Popham (Early Greek contact with the East), D
Ridgway (Phoenicians and Greeks in the West), J N Coldstream
(Pithekoussai, Kyme and central Italy), B. Shefton (Massalia and
colonisation in the north-western Mediterranean), F. De Angelis
(The foundation of Selinous: Overpopulation or opportunities?), G.
Tsetskhladze (Greek penetration of the Black Sea), John Boardman
(Settlement for trade and land in North Africa).
Eight papers, seven in English and one in German, from a seminar
held at Cambridge University in 1996 on the subject of Greek
colonisation and settlement in the East Mediterranean and the
Pontus. Based on literary and archaeological evidence the
contributors assess the social, political, economic and cultural
interaction between the Greeks and the indigenous people. Contents:
Greeks and Syria (J Boardman); Greek contact with the Levant and
Mesopotamia (A Kuhrt); The Poleis of the southern Anatolia coast (A
G Keen); Herodotus on the Black Sea coastline and Greek settlements
(J Hind); Aspects of the Pontic and Eastern Mediterranean regions
(Z H Archibald); Colonial origins in the Black Sea region (D
Braund); Ionians abroad (G R Tsetskhladze); Archaische attische
Keramik in Ionien
