Sažetak
The historical episode we commonly call the Third Illyrian War (168 bc) ultimately resulted in the final destruction of the Illyrian kingdom on the Eastern shores of the Adriatic 1. Although mainly in the background of a fairly more significant Third Macedonian War, Rome’s actions against the Illyrian king Genthius were not left unnoticed by historical sources. Primarily by Livy, whose remarks about the circumstances on the Eastern shores of the Adriatic from the beginning of the second century BC, the course of war operations, and the imposed measures after the peace treaty is largely the only information recorded in ancient historiography. However, distributed and sporadically written throughout books 41-45, Livy’s information is not without historiographical and chronological problems. This article deals with three modern interpretations of Livy’s information about the Third Illyrian War in correlation to the general events of the Third Macedonian War.
