The main aim of this work is to show what fireplaces looked like in the Middle Ages, and more importantly, what functions they could have performed. In the archaeological literature until now, it has been claimed that they were not kitchen hearths, but could only be used to heat meals. In this paper, I show that this claim is unfounded. A long search for suitable illustrations led to the discovery of a number of unique representations of fireplaces. Thanks to its frequent presentation in medieval painting, significant differences are noticeable in the way of presenting material culture and its details. The analysis presented in this paper made it possible to identify one more important issue concerning fireplaces that has not yet received any comments. So far, it has been emphasized that religious-themed performances are marked by symbolism and show typical scenes in a fairly unified way. Other ways of presentation of religious scenes have not been taken into account. Scenes showing saints in manuscripts present them in more everyday circumstances than in the panel painting. Unfortunately, such images are extremely rare, here I present one of the more interesting scenes at the fireplace – the Holy Family having dinner.

In the Hellenistic period Rhodes was an important centre of trade and wine production. Finds of Rhodian amphorae stamps are very common in the Northern Black sea region, but Rhodian coins are quite rare. Some finds from the tumuli of the Cimmerian Bosporus demonstrate Rhodian influence also. One tumulus excavated on the Tuzla cape (the Taman peninsula) in 1885 is especially interesting. A rich grave dating to the end of the 3rd or beginning of the 2nd century BC was excavated. The grave inventory consists of two Greek vases, one gold wreath, a silver ladle (kyathos), a silver strainer of unusual form, and a silver footless bowl of mastos type, bearing a gold indication of a Rhodian coin. It is the only find of such type in the aristocratic burials of the Bosporan Kingdom.

The aim of the present article is to summarize a current state of research on the problem of inflow of Roman provincial coins into Lesser Poland in antiquity. The term “provincial coinage” as used here refers to coins from the mints producing coinages for the purpose of provincial circulation, as well as to the so-called pseudo-autonomous and autonomous coinages struck by various local mints. We consider coins produced in mints located in the Eastern part of the Roman Empire, beginning from Dacia and Moesia, and farther east and south to the provinces of Asia Minor, Syria, and Egypt as well as these struck by the rulers of the Bosporan Kingdom. The chronological scope of this presentation is defined by the final decades of the Roman Republic/the beginning of the Roman Empire and the Diocletian’s reform (AD 294). We shall concentrate on the relevant finds of bronze coinage and the so-called billon coins. Only one brief paragraph is devoted to silver issues.

The article discusses the principal “Herodotean question” of the completeness of the work done by the historian. How well did Herodotus manage to accomplish his design? Should we regard his work in the form it has reached us as complete and integral? Or does it end abruptly at the events of 479/8 BC, despite “the Father of History” having planned to continue his account of the Greek-Persian wars? Over the last century and a half, pluralism in the views the researchers on the issue of the completeness of Herodotus’ work has emerged. The author ventures some observations on the finale of the The Histories and draws our attention to the passage Hdt. 9.121 in which Herodotus emphasizes the fact that the barbarians transgressing the geographical boundaries of Europe had been punished: the cables of the bridges which the Persians had used to tie Asia and Europe were taken to Hellas by the victors. According to the author, the historian’s testimony τὰ ὅπλα τῶν γeφυρέων ὡς ἀναθήσοντeς ἐς τὰ ἱρά symbolizes the end of the war against the Barbarian, hence, the accomplishment of Herodotus’ design – the completion of the account of “great and marvellous deeds done by Greeks and foreigners and especially the reason why they warred against each other”.
