Abstract
Parion is situated within the boundaries of the village of Kemer, located in the northwest of the Biga district, which now forms a part of Çanakkale province. The excavations conducted in the town since 2005 have yielded various types of amphorae. Amphorae is one of the most numerically dense ceramic groups that were recovered from the Parion excavations. Previous investigations have indicated the existence of amphorae dating back to the Archaic, Classical, Hellenistic and Roman periods. This article analyses the Günsenin-type amphorae discovered during excavations in Parion between 2007 and 2020. The study categorises amphora styles produced in Northern Marmara into typological groups. It was noted that the Günsenin type amphorae from Parion exhibit both high and low-capacity morphologies. The investigations identified eight different types of Günsenin amphorae present in Parion, which arrived in the city during the Middle Byzantine period (9th-13th centuries AD).
