Denmark 2002. This is the first volume of the complete publication on Panskoye I, a rural settlment in North-Western Crimea dating from the period ca 400-270 B.C. Panskoye was founded by the city of Olbia, but half a century later its fortress was destroyed and the settlement subordinated to another Greek city, Chersonesos. After the incorporation of Panskoye into the chora of Cheronesos, a monumental building, known to the excavators as U6, was erected at Panskoye. This building provides invaluable archaeological information thanks to the unique combination of a very precise date with rich finds of sculpture, pottery, lamps, terracottas, coins, metals, stone and glass objects, and inscriptions. This comprehensive publication of the material from this building offers an extroadinary insight into the important issues in ancient history and classical archaeology: A Greek city’s exploitation of its territory and the interaction between Greek settlers and local tribes-in this case the Scythians and the Taurians., English8772887702, Year2002, Illust.
