Il commercio medio e tardo repubblicano (III - I a.C.) nella parte occidental del Mediterraneo attraverso la distribuzione cronologica dei naufragi

In this study will be analyzed statistically the chronologies of 282 Hellenistic shipwrecks (III up to I century BC) found in the Western part of the Mediterranean Sea. Through the sum of their weighted averages it will be possible to draw a graph of their chronological distribution. Moreover, it will be discussed the connection between the “historical anchoring” of the events selected and the interpretation of the archaeological data.
