The paper presents an unpublished silver amphora with zoomorphic handles shaped as winged horses. It explores the entire class of similar metal amphorae with zoomorphic handles (including isolated handles) from the Achaemenid domain and its neighbouring areas, as well as their clay parallels, and their iconographic occurrences. Some possible Greek bronze parallels are also discussed. The vase weight is understood as following the Achaemenid monetary standard. Finally, the vase is attributed to a Lydian workshop and dated ca. 500 BC.

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.

The paper discusses a relatively small wine container called an askos, which is part of a ‘treasure’ of silver vessels allegedly found in central Thrace. The askos is compared to several clay parallels excavated thus far exclusively in Thrace. These clay askoi occur in three different ceramic fabrics: banded ware, a fabric with painted floral and geometric motifs, and monochrome ware. Our silver exemplar is dated to the very end of the 4th century BC and attributed to a workshop most plausibly located in a Greek colony of the western Black Sea coast.
