The A9 Edifice from Tropaeum Traiani (II). A Late Roman House in Scythia Minor (5th – 6th Cent. AD)
The A9 Edifice from Tropaeum Traiani (II). A Late Roman House in Scythia Minor (5th – 6th Cent. AD)

Summary/Abstract: The present paper continues the ideas of the previous article published in Pontica 46 (2013), p. 173‐215 and should be considered in close connection with it. The edifice A9 from Tropaeum Traiani consists of three rooms, a courtyard and an annex (possibly built later, above the small street AV2), all being part from the same edifice.TheA9 edifice is separated from the eastern neighboring home by a water discharge canal. The previous paper dealt mainly with the annex of the edifice and the water discharge canal. Due to the complexity of the archaeological approach (the archaeological excavations did not focus only on the A9 house, but also extended to some other complexes as pits, the ABV IV street, surveys), the material from the rest of A9 building is published so late. The present paper is set on the main three rooms and the courtyard with some general and particular considerations about the context of the discoveries, the archaeological material and the building system.
