Stamped Byzantine amphora of X century A.D. from Laspi, 104-117

Abstract:
The article publishes a Byzantine amphora o f X century A.D. with two stamps on handles in shape of letter “N” and monogram (IW) as well as considers the assignment of the stamps and their attribution. Amphorae stamping is known in Byzantium from IV century A.D. Stamps on amphorae of late IX - XII centuries A.D. are the abbreviations o f the names, which in the most cases are defined as names o f Byzantine emperors or members of their families: owners o f erasterios. We can presumably determine other possible owners of amphorae production - city-states, separate spokesmen of capital or provincial nobility, large cloisters.
