Taurica’ (VDI 3, 2010, in Russian); ‘La ville libre grecque et l’administration romaine: le cas de
Chersonèse Taurique’ (in A. Bresson et al., eds., Une koinè pontique: cités grecques, sociétés indigènes
et empires mondiaux sur le littoral nord de la mer Noire [Bordeaux, 2007]); ‘Bosporus, Thrace and
Chersonesus Taurica in the First Quarter of the 1st Century AD’ (VDI 4, 2007, in Russian); and ‘L’épitaphe

During his stay at SCAS, Makarov will be continuing his work on the Northern Black Sea epigraphy with
