Sumario:During the Late Roman period in Scythia, we may have observed a preponderance of the storage of products in dolia inside the households. This situation is well demonstrated by the discoveries from the Histrian insula – University of Bucharest’s Acropolis Center–South Sector (henceforth ACS). The dolia from this sector are medium and large–sized, with rim dimensions that vary from 50 to 70 cm, and an average capacity of 1000 and 1600 l. They are locally made and could store wine or cereals.
