The Slavic Migrations in Istria: An Expression of Relationship between Christian and Pagan Landscape

Through the transitional period from the Late Roman period to the seventh century Istria was Christianised and the settlements had a spatial organization which included Christian basilicas. These churches belonged to the Christianized Roman population settled in Istria throughout the Roman period. Until recently these migrations were considered mostly in order to establish the historical circumstances of the encounter of two different ethnic groups in Istria. This work presentation will include the examination of the two historical settlements: 1) Nesactium (Nezakcij) near Pula, and 2) Muntajana near Poreč.By this examination, a model of cessation of Christian cultic spaces caused by Slavic interventions tends to be reconsidered. In 30 this context we still deal with a contact between the existing Roman population and the new ethnic element who did not have the same religious practices.
