Sažetak
Last four centuries before Christ in the central Adriatic area are characterized with the interweaving of indigenous, Greek and, ultimately, Roman interests. Such dynamism in the historical development was manifested in many aspects of everyday life of the local population. Something that can be seen through archaeological material is the increased intensity of trade. In that sense, this occasion will be used to speak about Hellenistic (Corinth B, Greek-Italian, Pharos 2) and late-republican amphorae (Lamboglia 2, etc.) found on the island of Korčula. We speak about an indispensable point on the eastern Adriatic navigation route. On the other hand, the island's natural resources had supported highly strong late-Iron Age local populations repeatedly mentioned in ancient sources and, given the quantity of imported material, apparently actively involved in sea trade. The presented material is the result of collected data from scientific literature, multiple reconnaissances of a number of underwater and inland sites, and finally a systematic archaeological survey of the Kopila hill fort.
