This study, which is named “The Urns of Antandros”, includes 34 urns that were unearthed at Antandros between the years 2001 and 2004. Depending on their forms, contexts and the position in which they were found, 18 of these 34 urns have been dated to the archaic period, 1 of them to the Classical period and 15 to the Hellenistic period.

According to this information, the Antandros urns of the Archaic Period were divided into three groups: amphorae, chytra and pots which can not be classified. From these groups the amphora urns are also divided into three groups: amphorae with handles from neck to shoulder, amphorae with handles on shoulders and amphorae with handles on belly. The amphorae with handles on shoulders are divided into two groups: flat-based and ring-based. The amphorae with handles on the belly were used in the second half of the seventh century BC while the amphorae with handles on the shoulders and the chytra seem to have been used between the end of the seventh century BC and the first quarter of the sixth century BC.

Only one urn dating to the Classical Period has been found. This urn dates to the fifth century BC and it is an amphora with handles on the neck. As the number of cremation increased in the Hellenistic Period, the number of urns also increased. These urns are divided into three groups: stamnos, chytra and pots which can not be classified. The stamnos urns date from the early Hellenistic period until the first century BC whereas the chytra urns were used from the second century BC until the first century BC.

According to the researches, it has been determined that the Antandros urns do not have a standard form. It is seen that, generally wide-mouthed everyday pots were used as urns.
