Sažetak
The Ravni Kotari region of northern Dalmatia is home to a number of archaeological sites that reflect a long record of urbanization. At Nadin- Gradina, a hillfort settlement centrally positioned in Ravni Kotari, collaborative work over the past five years has begun to reveal components of an Iron Age Liburnian occupation beginning in the early first millennium BCE or so, its evolution into a Roman municipium in the late first century BCE or early first century CE, and its apparent abandonment in the sixth century. Its reemergence in the Late Middle Ages and Early Modern Era is also evident and caps this millennial-scale process of change. The long-term record at Nadin provides an opportunity to evaluate principles of urban planning through time, and its evolution within the context of broader cultural changes evident in the archaeological record. In this paper, we rely primarily upon remnants of streets, edifices, town walls, and other elements of urban infrastructure to evaluate millennial-scale continuity and discontinuity evident in its urban plan.
