This dissertation was written as part of the MA in Black Sea and Eastern Mediterranean Studies at the International Hellenic University. The aim of the dissertation thesis is to examine and study societies inhabiting the northern Black Sea area in a time span between the 3rd century BC and the 3rd century AD. The goal of the study will be accomplished through the presentation of elite burials that have been uncovered in the above-mentioned area. Burial findings that have been mainly uncovered are precious drinking cups, cast bronze cauldrons, iron and bronze tripods/rods with zoomorphic terminals, weapons, and gold jewelry. In these findings, elements of the Greek and south-eastern Mediterranean world, such as images of Greek pantheon deities, floral motives, and semi-precious stones are encountered with Animal Style features, that characterize the decorative preferences of the indigenous societies. The proposed period from the 3rd century BC to the mid–3rd century AD is considered a crisis epoch due to the recorded destructions in Greek cities as well as in indigenous settlement organizations. The most representative burial type for the Hellenistic and Roman periods are the kurgan mounds, while by the mid-first century BC, the image becomes more complicated with the addition of flat burial grounds and necropolises. Selected burial complexes will be presented, representing the geographical and chronological frame mentioned. Then, the presented catalogue will be based on the different categories of objects, each category organized in chronological order. Similar (or non-similar) characteristics among objects and/or decorative systems will be discussed, and thus will lead, through this comparative method to the contact networks responsible. The material evidence consists of burial findings published in detail in the English language (EL)
