Résumé 0

Two shipwrecks of the Byzantine period have been discovered in the Bay of Sudak, Crimea, Black Sea. A significant amphorae assemblage has been retrieved as a result of ongoing archaeological excavations in the bay. Our paper focuses on the amphorae of types Günsenin II, Günsenin III and Günsenin XX (10th-11th century and late 13th century, respectively) found at the Novy Svet shipwreck site. Chemical analysis showed that at least some of these three amphorae types came from the same workshop(s). Thus we assumed that these amphorae represent derivative chronological and typological stages of transformation from one shape to another. Here the archaeological typology of the selected amphorae from Novy Svet is presented, and ideas concerning interconnection between shape and dates are discussed, based on the fact that all shapes considered to be attributes for chronological assumptions are presented in one stratigraphic context.
