Summary

Throughout the Hellenistic Period, from the late 4th to the middle of the 1st century BC, more than 500 producers in Rhodes and the Peraea produced amphorae for transporting Rhodian wine. As an indication that this activity was controlled by the state, they stamped their jars with dies bearing their names and the names of the eponyms who were chosen for one year from among the priests of Helios. The Rhodian amphora stamps found in the archaeological excavations of various consumption centres have been gradually published since the second half of the 19th century and today the number of such items is enormous. This volume contains different dies bearing the names of more than 200 eponyms and is based on the studies of matrices which began in 2003 in the rich Alexandrian collections of the Graeco-Roman Museum, especially the Benaki Collection, and in finds from excavations.
