Summary: The monograph deals with a comprehensive analysis of the ceramic tableware from the sites of the Northwest Black Sea region, which was produced by Tauric Chersonesos. The historiography of the issue is considered, where particular attention is paid to the views on the attribution of painted vessels of the Hellenistic period. The main features of ceramic imports to Olbia as a strategic economic partner of Tauric Chersonesos from the last third of the 4th to the middle of the 3rd century BC are revealed. The ceramic finds from Tyras and Nikonion, which also represented by Chersonesan products, are analysed. The northwestern vector of the Tauric Chersonesos economy, which was an important component of interpoleis relations in the Northern Black Sea region during the Hellenistic period, is represented.

Reading audience: For archaeologists, historians, art historians, cultural studies scholars and anyone interested in the ancient history of Ukraine.
