This study presents Roman pottery finds stored at the DAI Athens and collected during early explorations by German archaeologists from various sites on the Greek mainland, the islands and the western coast of Asia Minor. The sherds date from the 1st cent. B.C. to the 7th cent. A.D. and belong to a wide range of functional categories, including imported fine ware, local and regional tablewares, coarse and cooking ware, lamps and transport amphorae. Most of the sites they were recovered from are known from previous research, but not all of them have been investigated systematically, especially with respect to their Roman or Late Antique phases. The specific information about those sites makes the material valuable for comparison with future excavations and surveys. In addition, these sherds provide important information about the distribution of particular ceramic wares and shapes. They illustrate the existence of regional or local production and allow a broad overview of the typological and chronological characteristics for certain areas of Greece and the Aegean.
Die Rückgabe des DAI Athen im Jahr 1951, e-Forschungsberichte des DAI 2018/1, 30-33
In July 2016 the project “Reappraising the History of the DAI Athens during the National Socialist Era” began. The research in both German and Greek archives offers insight into an historical epoch from which we are now divided by over two generations. The focus is on concrete events and activities, but also personal feelings and experiences which can provide information about the role of the German Archaeological Institute in Athens. The following essay sheds light on a topic that until now has barely been the subject of research: the handing back of the DAI premises in 1950–1951 following the end of the occupation and the Greek Civil War.
