Engraved gems from Tilurium in the Zagreb Archaeological Museum

Within the glyptic collection of the Archaeological Museum in Zagreb eight engraved gems and two glass gems from Tilurium are found. A rich but standard iconographic repertoire is attested on them, covering various subjects: Minerva, Eros, a centaur, a satyr, Three Graces, a warrior, a deer, an eagle, a group of symbols and an inscription. Although lacking archaeological context, based on their stylistic and technical characteristics, they can be dated in the period from the end of the 1st century BC to the 2nd century AD.
