Sažetak
During 2013. underwater archaeologists from International centre for underwater archaeology in Zadar started excavations on the newly discovered shipwreck that is located in shallow waters off the island Babuljaš near Pakoštane. Although only four trenches were excavated, and research is only at its begging, rich layer of finds suggest us that this is very important shipwreck that will give us new evidences about maritime transport in the Adriatic during 4th and 5th century. Several types of North African amphorae are already determined ; some of them are preliminarily determined as Keay 25, 35 and 27. Few of them carry stamps that could give us possibility to locate their point of origin more accurately. According to the number of different pottery types found during excavations, African red slip and cooking ware, this finds could also be determined as a part of the cargo that was transported for sale, and not only as utilitarian ship´s equipment. This lecture aims to present new evidences of trade import from North Africa in the Adriatic, and to present different amphorae and pottery types found on this shipwreck.
