Topography of Burnum

Agglomeration of Burnum in the province of Dalmatia comprised several components. Oppidum on Gradina near Puljani on the left bank of the Krka River was the centre of Liburnian Burnistae. On the opposite site on the right bank were built Roman legionary camp and the auxiliary castellum. During the Emperor Hadrian’s reign municipium Burnum developed from canabae and peregrine settlement. Recent archaeological excavations of the military amphitheatre revealed two main building phases (the first one during the reign of Claudius and the second one in Vespasian’s time). Next to the south entrance of the amphitheatre started excavations of huge quadrangular object, probably military, then municipal campus.
