Ceramic unguentaria are among the most common grave offerings of the Hellenistic and early Roman periods. The function of these vessels in funerary contexts, however, and their chronology have not yet been firmly established. A preliminary study of the unguentaria from the site of Stobi in Yugoslavian Macedonia suggests new directions of investigation. Information about the context, appearance, capacity, frequency, and chronology of unguentaria at Stobi and elsewhere indicates that 1) unguentaria were produced in many centers rather than in just a few, 2) any proposed chronology for unguentaria must take into account this regional or local variation, and 3) the function of unguentaria found in burials was closely connected to funerary ritual and not necessarily related to the commercial trade in perfumed oils and unguents.
