Primitive existenceA coin from Panticapaeum, bearing a star within a diadem and the letters "ΠΑΝ", 2nd century BCSee also: Greeks in pre-Roman CrimeaDuring the first centuries of the city's existence imported Greek wares predominated: ceramic (see Kerch style), earthenware, and metal objects, probably from workshops of Rhodes, Corinth, Samos, And Athens. At the same time, local production was carried out, imitated by models. Athens produced a special type of bowl for the city, known as Kerch ware. Local potters imitated the Hellenistic bowls known as Gnatia style as well as featured items—Megarian bowls. The city minted silver coins from the 5th century BC and gold and bronze coins from the 4th century BC At its greatest extent it occupied 100 hectares (250 acres). The Hermitage And Kerch The museums contain material from the site, which is still being excavated.Representations of Pan on gold and silver Pantikapaion coins from the 4th century BCFrom the V to the I century BCIn the V-IV century BC the city became the first residence of the Archaeactidae and then del Sparticides, dynasties of Thracian king of Bosphorus, and was therefore itself sometimes called the Bosphorus. Its economic decline in the 4th-3rd century BC was the result of Sarmatian conquest of the steppes and the growing competition of Egyptian grain.MithridatesSmall statue of Scythians with bows from Panticapeum, 4th century BC
