Amid constant warfare in the late Hellenistic era, vibrant Greek influence spurred a transformation in ceramic production and trade across Asia Minor, the Pontic region, and the eastern Mediterranean. Essays examine ceramic chronology challenges and highlight cultural impacts extending to the Black Sea.

The late Hellenistic period, spanning the 2nd and early 1st centuries BC, was a time of great tumult and violence thanks to nearly incessant warfare. At the same time the period saw the greatest expansion of 'Hellenistic' Greek culture, including ceramics. Papers in this volume explore problems of ceramic chronology (often based on evidence dependent on the violent nature of the period), survey trends in both production and consumption of Hellenistic ceramics particularly in Asia Minor and the Pontic region, and assess the impact of Hellenistic ceramic culture across much of the eastern Mediterranean and into the Black Sea.

Søren Michael Sindbæk, MA (Copenhagen), PhD (Aarhus) is a medieval archaeologist specialising in Viking Age Scandinavia. His research focuses on cultural communication, exchange and social networks in Early Medieval Northern Europe, and on the application of network theory and analysis to archaeological problems.
