Summary/Abstract: This study is dedicated to a series of 49 amphora stamps of Sinope found during the excavations at Orgame-Argamum (Jurilovca, Tulcea County) after 1992. The new stamps add to the previously published 44 stamps, both series revealing analogies with astyonomes and producers. The stamps of Sinope found at Ogame-Argamum provide an opportunity to resume the subject of Sinope amphorae’s circulation at this site and to refine, by comparison with the amphora stamps identified in other west Pontic fortresses, the hypotheses regarding the role of Orgame-Argamum in the trade with Sinope.
