Cet article présente deux poids en bronze de balances romaines, découverts dans le sanctuaire montagneux d’Eklizi-Burun (Crimée). L’une des principales pratiques rituelles identifiées sur le site était la destruction délibérée d’objets. L’article propose de voir dans ces deux poids et leurs balances des trophées saisis par les fidèles du sanctuaire, avant d’être détruits et consacrés.

"Der Begriff „Maioten"" ergibt sich aus der Lokalisierung verschiedener Völkerschaften an den Ufern des Asowschen Meeres (Maiotis) durch antike Autoren. Die Identifizierung der archäologischen Kultur begann in den 1930er Jahren mit der Entdeckung von Siedlungen und Nekropolen entlang des unteren und mittleren Kubanflusses; deren Untersuchung ermöglichte die Rekonstruierung der sesshaften Lebensweise der lokalen Bevölkerung. In Anbetracht der Hauptzüge dieser Siedlungen (so z. B. besondere Formen von Grabritualen oder spezifische Töpfereigattungen) umfasst das Verbreitungsareal der maiotischen archäologischen Kultur den mittleren Lauf des Kuban und die Vorberge des nördlichen Kaukasus. Dieses Gebiet ist viel größer als der Bereich, der von den schriftlichen Quellen beschrieben wird. Seine „kulturellen Eigenheiten"" sind auf die geographischen Besonderheiten und das wirtschaftliche Potential der Gegend zurückzuführen. In diesem Sinne sollte die „maiotische Kultur"" eher „archäologische Kultur des Kuban"" benannt werden. Schlüsselworte: Maioten, archäologische Kultur, Kubangebiet, Forschungsgeschichte "
