Once a Greek settlement was founded near the delta of the Don (Russian Federation) in the last quarter of the 7th century B.C., long-term contacts were established with poleis on the Black Sea and the Aegean. On the basis of the analysis of a burial field and a settlement, excavated within the framework of Russian and German-Russian projects, this volume examines the character of these contacts. Applying theories of consumption and the model of cultural appropriation makes it possible to describe cultural transformation not as an automatic consequence, but as a process initiated within society.
