Summary/Abstract: The recent discoveries of some Anatolian pots, both of « Late Phrygian » and Lydian types, scattered between NW (Istros, Olbia, Berezan) and NE (Panticapaeum) Pontic Greek settlements, invite to wonder about both their respective centres of manufacture and routes of delivery from the Anatolian hinterland. It is argued that the « Late Phrygian » ones brought to light at Panticapaeum might well have followed the same western coastal sea route from the Bosporus mouth northwards as their Anatolian counterparts excavated in Istros and Berezan‐Olbia.
