Roman Amphorae (re)Discovered on the Territory of Iași Municipality

Over time, the territory of the municipality of Iași has been inhabited by different populations who used various products imported from the Roman world. From the analysis of the amphorae catalogued in this area, we have been able to establish the existence of six types of amphorae that transported oil and wine from the Pontic and Aegean areas. The containers can be classified into types known in the Roman world and north of the Danube, types Shelov B, C, type Zeest 69, type Agora M 273, and those less known in the barbarian environment, types Late Roman Amphorae 2 and Kapitän 2. From a chronological point of view, they can be dated to the 2nd-3rd centuries AD and the 4th century AD.
