The study is limited to the late Classical and early Hellenistic periods, c. It is as such indicators of ancient trade they are studied in the present work. Since the organic products transported in the amphorae have left little or no trace in the archaeological record, the amphorae themselves, if carefully studied, provide us with excellent indicators of trading contacts. Euesperides imported amphora-borne commodities on a large scale and over long distances, from the Aegean and Cyprus in the East, from mainland Greece, Magna Graecia and Sicily to the Punic cities in Spain and Tripolitania. Once the amphorae had reached their destinations they were emptied of their contents and most often discarded, like bottles today. The shape of a typical transport amphora with a pointed or rounded toe is unsuitable for storage, but ideal for transportation in the hull of a ship, where the vessels could be tightly packed. Amphorae are large, pottery containers for the transportation over sea of mainly liquid food products like wine and olive oil, but also processed fish. ABSTRACT The study aims at investigating the ancient trade in amphora-borne commodities based on a quantitative analysis of forms and fabrics of amphorae from the 1999-2006 excavations at the Greek city of Euesperides, modern Benghazi in Libya. It is an authentic bow tie, so you will have the possibility - if you wish - to undo it and tie it again afterwards in your own way.This book is the publication of the author's doctoral thesis, publicly defended at Lund University 3 March 2007. The bow tie you will receive will be already tied and ready to use. The bow tie was then made in the CINABRE workshops in Loir et Cher.

Les Olivades is also one of the last workshops in France to perpetuate the traditional techniques of printing with flat or cylindrical frames.

There they keep a large archive of traditional regional designs: a unique heritage. This collection was developed in collaboration with the French printer Les Olivades whose workshop has been located in Provence since 1818. The color flows through the cylindrical stencil and is gently deposited on the fabric through holes provided. The pattern is a traditional Provencal design in blue with white outlines on a navy background. DescriptionThis bow tie was designed from a French cotton percale.
