Black-Glazed Pottery with Stamped and Incised Decoration from Underwater Research near Ak-Burun Cape
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Unbroken and fragmented black-glazed vessels were one of the most informative categories of pottery found during underwater excavations by the expedition of the Institute of Archeology of the Russian Academy of Sciences in the area of the port of Panticapaeum near Ak-Burun cape (about 480 in total). Items decorated with stamped and incised ornaments, brought to the Bosporus from Attica, Asia Minor and Corinth, accounted for a significant percentage. They date back from the last quarter of the 5th — the second half of the 2nd century BC. The set of shapes and combinations of decorative elements are, generally, quite standard, somewhat inferior in diversity to the pottery finds from the urban layers of Panticapaeum. New impressions that have not been seen before can be identified, as well as identical stamps, which made it possible to cautiously assume the possibility of manufacturing several pairs of vessels in the same workshop. Fragment of a Stemless cup of the first quarter of the 4th century BC with a unique decoration on the inner surface is of particular interest: Silenic masks surrounded by stylized pine cones. There are no analogies to such images, but stylistically, the closest examples come from Southern Italy.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
