Abstract (english)
Pharos is one of the oldest Greek colonies on the Croatian part of the eastern Adriatic, founded in the early 4th century BC. From 2021 to 2023, extensive rescue excavations took place in Stari Grad (Pharos), uncovering various sections of the ancient city and yielding a vast array of archaeological discoveries. This paper presents the first results of the archaeomalacological analysis conducted with the aim of enhancing our understanding of the exploitation of marine ecosystems, the significance of molluscs in the local diet, and the marine economy in Late Classical and Hellenistic Pharos. Notably, this marks the first archaeomalacological study conducted on intact layers documented within a Greek city along the Croatian Adriatic coastline. The palaeoecological component of this study encompasses the quantity, distribution, and ecology of the collected species in Pharos and at contemporary sites on the eastern Adriatic coast. Furthermore, taphonomic analysis was employed to investigate the role of molluscs in the diet and the potential implications for Greek culinary practices. Lastly, emphasis was placed on exploring the potential contribution of select collected molluscs to the local economy, particularly within the fishing sector. In summary, this research sheds new light on the historical dynamics of Pharos, providing insights into the ancient city’s relationship with its marine surroundings and the significance of molluscs within its culture and economy. The findings not only contribute to our understanding of Hellenistic Pharos, but also add to the broader knowledge of ancient Greek colonies in the eastern Adriatic region.
