Sažetak
The foundation of today’s town of Trilj lies in the distant past, perhaps in the times of the first movements of people and goods. The reason for this is its position at one of the most suitable crossings over the river Cetina. This was the place where the important state road Salona – Argentaria crossed Cetina, which is why ancient sources have recorded its Latin name. On the Tabula Peutingeriana (VI (5), 3) it is called Tilurio, on the Antonine Itinerary (337, 5) Ponte Tiluri and on the Ravenna Cosmography (IV, 16) Tilurion and Ponteluri. The importance of the crossing is confirmed with construction of several important strategic strongholds in the vicinity, such as the Roman legionary fortress Tilurium and two late medieval and modern fortifications Čačvina and Nutjak. Apart from the state road, there were other, smaller roads that gravitated towards the river crossing, which makes the surroundings of Trilj very suitable for exploring historical roads – both those from antiquity and those from later periods. Based on this assumption, a research project of surveying historical roads of the Trilj area was designed, the results of which we present in this paper.
