These advances show in particular two breaks at the threshhold and towards the end of the Classical period, respectively in connection with the Persian invasion of 480 BC and the 3rd Sacred War (356-346 BC). Among the Phokian cities in Hellenistic times, Panopeus undoubtedly remained an average city, whose life is made manifest by two new inscriptions, a dedication to Herakles and an erotic text.

The continuous habitation of the site as well as the fact that ancient stone blocks were used to build the modern harbor facilities have contributed to the extensive destruction of the ancient structures, and in particular of the fortifications. These last, which were likely founded in the late 4th century BC, are preserved in fragments among the modern city. This paper gathers the results of previous and more recent studies, mainly of a rescue nature. Its aim is to graphically reconstruct, with the greatest possible degree of accuracy, the course of the walls, and to understand the defensive function of the fortification in the context of contemporary siege operations.

In this paper the material brought to light during a rescue excavation which took place in the courtyard of the Archaeological Museum of Delphi in 1959 is presented. One of the objects found was the broadly depicted white-ground kylix with Apollo pouring a libation, dated to the early Classical period. Because of the decoration’s uniqueness, the pit has been considered to be a priest’s grave and that the vessel had been his personal item. Nevertheless, the rest of the objects are dated to a very wide timespan, from the early 5th to the 3rd century B.C. The finds comprise clay masks and figurines, of which the majority exhibit influence from Boeotian workshops (if they are not directly imported from Boeotia), drinking vessels, lamps and pyxides, mainly
imported from Corinth, some Athenian lekythoi, an ivory pyxis and many unguentaria. Τhe pit, where the Apollo kylix was found, was not used for the inhumation of a deceased, let alone of a priest, but as a deposit
created after the clearing of several graves of the 5th, 4th and 3rd centuries B.C.

It was first published by Stackelberg, who in 1835 found it on the acropolis of ancient Crissa, in a relatively short distance from Delphi. At that time the stele was preserved in a much better condition; the published drawing shows a male figure seated left on a folding stool, wearing himation that left his torso nude, which is depicted in a nearly three-quarter twist. The figure holds and reads a scroll horizontally that is wrapped at both ends. Immediately in front of him lies a large kithara with curved arms and fifteen vertical strings, whereas higher up, a wreath of myrtle or laurel, a strigil, a conical aryballos and a disc in a net are hanging on the wall. The conditions under which the stele was shredded are unknown, as is also the time during which it was transferred to the Museum of Delphi. In its present form, the stele retains only the edges of the figure and the stool, as well as most of the kithara. Despite the poor preservation, date and interpretation of the depiction on the stele are attempted here. Morphological features along with the style allow us to date it to the 1st century BC or the 1st century AD. The musical instrument and the scroll leave open the possibility of the figure being a prominent man, athlete, and musician, who received special honours after his death.

À la croisée des routes commerciales, militaires et religieuses du monde grec, les fortifications de Phocide et de Locride ont conservé jusqu'au XXe siècle une grande importance stratégique. Pourtant, elles restent mal connues.
Ce projet vise à produire de nouvelles connaissances, non seulement sur leur architecture et les techniques de défense déployées à différentes époques, mais aussi sur l’histoire de ces sites dans une région qui à plusieurs reprises a été en première ligne des affrontements entre puissances hégémoniques.
The purpose of this study is to present the excavation results from the tumuli (Tumulus A and Tumulus B), both located within the administrational borders of the Anaphlystos’ deme. Furthermore, the limited in terms of quantity material from Euthymios Mastrokostas’ excavation at Croesus’ tomb is also presented, along with the results from a short excavation campaign in the cemetery of the Aigilia’s deme, which is clearly distinguished from the burial mound of Croesus. Moreover, the grave offerings and the burial practices are discussed, along with issues concerning the topography of the coastal demes from Lamptrai to Sounion.
