This paper presents a new inscription mentioning a dekaprotos from Antikyra in Phokis, dated around the middle of the 3rd century AD. The offi ce of dekaprotos is examined in its historical perspective with a review of all available sources. The paper tries to identify more closely the function of the offi cials denoted as dekaprotoi in the Roman East, as well as their relationship to the decemprimi and decuriones in the Roman West. It readjusts the dates of the introduction and abolition of the institution, discusses the terms of the offi ce and how often a man could hold it, and makes several additions to what is already known about its geographical spread.

Amphorae and jar stoppers (excavated/recovered)found during the 2010–2014 seasons of the Polish–American excavations at Berenike in the Red Sea are found mainly in the early Roman trash dumps, although single finds come from all over the ancient city. Altogether 54 stoppers were studied. More than 60% were preserved fragmentarily, some were stamped and colored. As a category they are typical of the Eastern Dessert. Numerous finds come from Myos Hormos and Mons Claudianus, single finds from Mons Porphyrites and Sikait. They reflect Egyptian wine production during the Roman and late Roman periods. They consist of plug and sealing mixture, made from various materials like plaster and mud, ceramic elements (bowls, lids, roudcuts(?), sherds), natural cork, wood or textile.

The main legal source for the post-classical Roman imperial law – Codex Theodosianus – contains many interesting regulations about social and economic issues. Among them there are constitutions devoted to the property rights of the specified social groups. In the 4th century Roman authorities reformed administrative, social and economic system of the state in order to soften the effects of the “crisis of the 3rd century” and restore the public order and efficiency of the economy and taxation. The essential aspect of the reform was the introduction of the many restrictions in relation to the various groups of population which had important position in the social and economic structure of the lat Roman Empire. In the paper Author discusses some roman imperial constitutions that imposed some restrictions on the property rights of the members of the Rome corporations (like pistores, suarii etc). These regulations strengthened the legal ties between the corporation and its members by the restriction of the alienation of the property that were shares of the corpora. Moreover similar regulations related to the imperial craftsmen are discussed.

Within the complex system that once formed part of the epigraphic ensemble that accompanied these amphorae, we highlight the particular study of the painted marks known as tituli picti in the delta position of the olive oil amphorae from Baetica, Dressel 20. Here we address a singular fact, only detectable through the visualization of large data sets, indicating the existence of the endorsement in delta of the amount expressed in alpha throughout the years of the Antonine reform. If until now it was believed to be something fortuitous, or a scribeʼs error, now it could be considered, due to its structure and the cases exposed, a regulated script.
