The
paper deals with publishing and analyzing amphora stamps from the early
Hellenistic cinder heap No. 2 of the ancient sanctuary Viktorovka
I based on excavation materials from 2017 and 2019. In total, nine
stamps were found, which allow us to ascertain the entry of stamped amphora
containers into the filling of the cinder heap for about sixty years — since the 20s. of the 4th century to the beginning of the 60s.
of the 3rd century BCE. The earliest
stamps in the complex are Sinope, and the latest
are Rhodes. The presence of the
“wheel-shaped” Akanf stamp in the cinder heap, as
well as the stamp of an unidentified center Ἑρμι(-), makes it
possible to correct their chronology and date them no earlier than the last
third of the 4th century BCE.
