Epigraphic Spolia from the Eastern Adriatic Coast: the Evidence from Trogir

Located on an islet in a naturally protected area of central Dalmatia, Trogir is an exceptional example of urban continuity. The Greeks established their settlement in the late 3rd or early 2nd century B.C.E., while the Romans absorbed the area in the 1st century B.C.E. The city comprised most of the typical urban features of Greco-Roman civilization. From the late antiquity up to modern times, its population continuously used large quantities of stone material as spolia in domestic and public buildings. In addition to marble reliefs, the most common examples of spolia consist of inscribed funerary monuments, in particular stelae, plaques, sarcophagi, and funerary altars. The aim of this poster is to gather, present, and interpret them to get a clearer understanding of their content, purpose and subsequent fate.
