Four military (Balaklava, Charax, Chersonesos and Kazackaya Hill) and two civilian sites (Alma Kermen and Farmhouse No. 227) in the southern part of the Crimean Peninsula yielded about 300 Latin tile-stamps that comprise sixteen types and more than twenty dies. All the material is dated to the second and early third centuries A.D. The paper proposes a new reading of some stamps and dicusses problems of organization and places of military production. Since no tile-kilns have yet been found, all the observations are based on the results of laboratory analyses made in the Free University at Berlin. On the evidence of 18 samples, including two of raw clay, seven groups or workshops have been distinguished.

This interim report covers three excavation campaigns (2000-2002) within the headquarters building (principia) in the central part of the Roman legionary fortress at Novae on the Lower Danube (Northern Bulgaria). Excavation was concentrated on the courtyard, the crosshall and the rear range of administrative rooms. The last stratigraphic observations made in Room Cz with a loess pit preceding construction works on the principia confirm the Flavian date of the building. To judge by the stratigraphy in the crosshall and by three statue pedestals of AD 430-432 the building was destroyed and went out of use in the forties of the 5th century. New details are added to the plan of Rooms Ez1-3, the corridors Dw and Dz and both short sides of the crosshall.

The three excavation campaigns covered in this interim report were concentrated on the front and rear parts of the legionary fortress at Novae, where in the last years an intensive destruction activity of local treasure hunters took place. Some of the robber pits left by this clandestine excavation were replaced by a series of regular rescue trenches in order to record the exposed architectural remains. New information on the street-grid and plan of the legionary buildings in the praetentura and retentura of the fortress has been obtained.
