Some remarks on trade in western Black Sea area during Roman times

The subject of this paper is a brief synthesis of some finds of Roman amphorae discovered on the western Pontic coast (today Eastern Bulgaria). The topic is faced during the research field of my PhD international research project, still in progress, focussed on the commercial dynamics in Moesia Inferior and Thrace during the Roman times. Some first data already came into results individuating some patterns of consumption and confirming the existence of important commercial guidelines between Roman provinces on the Lower Danube, the north-western Pontic area and the Adriatic coast. The results will be completed with analysis of some observations of general character concerning the commercial significance of the Black Sea region for the local market, as well
