DÜZCE'DEN HELLENİSTİK VE ROMA DÖNEMİNE AİT BEZEMELİ BULUNTU TOPLULUĞU
Öz
This paper covers the presentation and some observations on a group of finds, consisting of rims and handles of various plates, megarian bowls, lamps and figurines, presumably found at Düzce/Üskübü-Konuarlp in 1957. The ancient site at Düzce/Üskübü-Konuralp, identified as the Prusias ad Hypium, an ancient city of the Bithynia region in Antiquity. The ancient site lies approximately 8 km north of the modem district centre of Düzce. Even though the initial foundation date of the town is not precisely known, there are some remains that date back to the 5th century BC. The golden age of the city was during the 2nd century AD; its location in a rich and fertile environment and proximity to the main road system must have triggered its development. Most of the finds under concern here are of African Red Slip Ware and Pontus Sigillata groups, though some of the finds indicate the presence of a local sigillata production centre somewhere in the region.
