Sažetak
During the housing construction in 2011 in the settlement of Caska on the island of Pag, which is well known for abundance of ancient remains, a disposal pit full of Roman pottery fragments had been found. Unfortunately, only a part of the pit was preserved, as the entire foundations of the house were dug up before the Conservation department was alerted and the construction halted. However, the remaining finds are still quite indicative of the production period as well as the time of their disposal. Namely, the disposal pit was mostly filled with Roman pottery shards, predominantly tegulae, amphorae, jugs and pithoi, which all had sharp edges, indicating that they were thrown in shortly after the vessels (or construction material) fell out of use. The remains were all covered with a distinctive, mostly sterile layer of soil and at the bottom of the disposal pit a fragmented Sarius cup and a thin-walled thorn decorated cup were found, indicating the beginning and (quite short) duration of use of this pit. Furthermore, this find, situated on a mild slope extending from Sv. Juraj towards the sea, is seemingly detached from befitting Roman context - a house or a workshop - as the nearest Roman period remains are located further south of this plot. In this paper, therefore, we shall consider the use and dating of this disposal pit, analyse the surviving pottery fragments and place them in the context of other finds in the wider Caska area.
