The Hellenistic Shipwreck of Phanagoria (Taman Peninsula, Black Sea, Russia): A Small Military Vessel

Abstract

The shipwreck was discovered in 2012 close to the shoreline of the ancient settlement of Phanagoria, Taman Peninsula, Russia. In 2014, a bronze casing decorated with a crescent and star, a symbol associated with the Kingdom of Pontus and the reign of Mithridates VI Eupator, was discovered 1.5 m to the west of the keel’s extremity. In 2019, the site was re-opened to complete the study of the ship’s structure. This article discusses its architecture and provides a first interpretation of the ship.
