The University
of Athens excavations at Kardamena (ancient Halasarna) on Cos, which
started on 1985 and continues to the present day, revealed a large number
of late Roman amphorae. This material consists of several well-known
types from the late Roman period. A key question is whether or not some
of these amphorae were produced locally. The quantity and the variety
of these types suggests that this region was important in the network
of Mediterranean trade.
