Lămpi antice de tip „Euctemon” (re)descoperite într-o colecție locală
Antique lamps of „Euctemon” type (re)discovered in a local collection

Summary/Abstract: In this note are published four ancient lamps, that come from a village museum collection, from Neamț County (Romania). The pieces are almost intact, relatively well preserved, have traces of use, and as decorative elements we can mention a crater-type vessel, a rooster and an eagle.The objects belong to the same typological series and probably came from Moesia Inferior - Dobrudja. Based on the morphological features, and also on a pottery mark printed on one of the pieces, the lamps are part of the „Euctemon” type, being dated in the 2nd c. AD.Although the archaeological context from which they originate is unknown, the discussed pieces complement the repertoire of ancient lamp findings in the West-Pontic area.
