Ateliers de poterie et éponymes amphoriques à Thasos
Pottery workshops and amphoric eponyms in Thasos

Summary/Abstract: The author makes a quick assessment of amphora workshops excavated in Thasos since 1978, specially the last ones, Sotiras (explored by Al. Avram) and Limenaria. He gives then a chronological list of all recent magistrates (one name only), each one with the various types found in the workshops. Finally, he tries to determine the number of workshops which were active every year and to draw an evolution curve, most names exceeding 30 types between ca. 315 and ca. 280 BC. Alphabetic attributes allow us to reckon how many types remain to uncover. So, we must now search for other workshops, including on the Thracian continent, in the Thasian Perea.
