Owl-skyphoi are a kind of mass-produced Attic red-figure vase of the 5th century BC, much studied by F. P. Johnson, J. D. Beazley, A. D. Trendall, O. V. Tugusheva, B. Kreuzer and others. Widespread in the Mediterranean, owl-skyphoi could transmit all over the oecumene the imperial prestige of Athens. The non-authorized copies made in Corinth, Laconia, elsewhere in Greece as well as Magna Graecia allow us to assume that everybody could understand their connotations. The
simplicity of the standard depiction with the owl between a pair of olive twigs could be compared with any modern logo, understandable even without any details, communicated by visual or narrative means. However, the meticulous study of the owl-skyphoi allow us to discover separate series of them, painted at a particular time, in a particular workshop, by a particular hand and even depicting different small species of owls. It could represent a case study for an understanding of the interrelation of artistic minimalism and the deep-seated roots of folklore symbolism in a common form of red-figure vase painting in Athens of the 5th century.

The paper deals with the depictions typical of the Athenian red-figure vases of the 4th century BC (so-called Kerch vases) with polychrome additional decoration. All of them have been found in burials, serving not only as just grave goods, but also as urns for ash or bones. The thematic circle of these vase-paintings is rather limited to several subject; ca. 40 percent related to marriage or wedding subjects. The reason should be the symbolic parallelism of the funeral and the wedding as rites de passage. There are some archaeological complexes with significant difference in dating of vases under consideration and other items (half a century or more). This fact claims for socio-cultural interpretation and for the revision of the chronology of the Athenian red-figure polychrome vases.

Mythological subjects on the black-figure fragments from Tyritaka are mostly related to the thiasus of Dionysus. There are also figures of other gods (Apollo, Athena, Nike). Among subjects with heroes there are Labours of Heracles (battles with Nemean lion, Amazons and Cretan bull) as well as fighting of Peleus and Thetis. There are also Gorgoneions (and, possibly, Perseus with the Gorgon); sphinxes (figures framing the figure friezes); sirens (obviously, playing music); possibly hippalectryon.
Key world: Athenian black figure vase painting, Greek mythology, Classical mythological iconography, Tyritake, Cimmerian Bosporus, North Black Sea.

Author analyzes the historical background for collecting and trading in the ancient painted pottery (Corinthian, Boeotian, Euboean, Greek geometric, Italiote, Cypriot) which was considered as finds from the South Russia (Crimea, Odessa region and Taman peninsula) during 1890-1910s. At that time these specimens of ancient pottery played an important role as an element bringing more colors to the expected image of "the Classical Hellas in the South Russia". The pieces are currently available for studies in various Russian museums.

Several Classical antiquities acquired for the Imperial Hermitage in the 1870s - 1880s were allegedly found in Macedonia in the vicinity of the Struma (Strymónas) river and in near of the ancient Via Egnatia. The seller was Stefan Ilyich Verkovich. Studies of Verkovich's archival materials and documents of the Ministry of the Russian Imperial Court and the State Hermitage Museum made it possible to identify these antiques with items of the museum's modern collection. These are both genuine Greek and Roman pieces as well as forgeries. The history of antiquities of Verkovich colorfully illustrates the development of the Russian culture of collecting and Classical archeology in the second half of the 19th century as well as the Russian-Balcan cultural contacts of the period.
