This volume presents essays on the ancient history and classical
archaeology of the Black Sea. Like a Periplus, it offers a journey
throughout the Pontus. The introductory chapter provides an overview of
developments across the region over the last 20 years in the study of
Greek colonisation, the local population and the relationship between
them. The following chapters take the journey to the Cimmerians and
Thrace, and how we understand them from written sources. Next to the
southern Black Sea and recent surveys and excavations there, local
peoples and the early Greek presence; then to the west and an account of
archaeological research from the Archaic period to the Roman conquest.
To the north, with an essay on recent archaeological research, a chapter
on one of the local peoples, the Taurians, and another on the economy of
the Greek colonies of the region, presented through an examination of
Kerkinitis in the Crimea. The northern and western shores are combined
in a consideration, based on epigraphic sources, of religious experience
there. The final journey is to the eastern Black Sea, and a survey of
recent discoveries and studies in Colchis.
