Abstract
In Akhisar, a city located in Manisa-Turkey and the heir to the ancient city of Thyateria, a two-storied building which was constructed in 1 932 and partly used as a teachers' house was restored and opened as a museum in 2012. A group of artefacts which was preserved in the Archaeological Museum of Manisa before has been exhibited in the Archaeological Museum of Akhisar since then. Among those artefacts, there is a group of Hellenistic pottery. In this paper, these vases were examined in terms of their forms and groups. Although there isn't any detailed information about the find spots, it is attempted to give suggestions about production centers of some of them.
