Transfer of Technology in the Late Republican Adriatic. The Case Study of the liburnica
Liburnica or liburna is well-known type of warship that was widely used in the Roman imperial fleets. The name leaves little doubt about the origins of the ship – it must have been originally developed by the Liburni, the indigenous people from northern part of Eastern Adriatic coast – modern- day northern Dalmatia. The Liburnian communities developed complex social structure prior to their inclusion in Roman imperial networks, and were known to Roman writers as able and innovative seamen connected with invention and use of two types of ship – the warship liburnica and merchant vessel made of stiched planks called serilia. Earlier scholarship discussed the period when this Roman adoption of foreign technology occurred, how and why it occurred, how did those warships looked like originally and in the Roman version. This paper wants to go one step beyond those obvious, and certainly justified, questions. Our intention is that through examination of available written and material evidence ask different set of questions, shifting the focus of the debate from the description of cultural and technological exchange to more profound discussion about the actual meaning of this exchange for the both sides in interaction. On one hand, the paper will assess Roman adoption of liburnica on the local level, by looking in to the nature of trans- Adriatic networks, construction and perceptions of local indigenous identities in the period of late Republic and early Empire. On the other hand, it will discuss wider problems, using this transfer of technology to analyse some aspects of interaction between the imperial core, its peripheries and frontier-zones in period under discussion.
