Other than these features and refuse contexts in the Late Antique / Early Byzantine period Domus at Pompeiopolis, the central sewer, and the drainage have the potential to provide alternative information related to the consumption, production, and discard behaviors of the households and the community in general. In this paper, microdebris samples taken from the street sewer, the drainage of the Domus, and a direct refuse link from a kitchen space adjacent to the street sewer were analyzed and discussed in consideration of the formation processes of the archaeological record.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessSpatial-analysisRefuse patternLate antiqueEarly byzantineBlack seaArtifactsEcofactsSocial sciencesArts & humanitiesArchaeologyHistoryArticle0011446115000041351682910.26650/anar.2023.29.13651772667-629X
