Sažetak
This paper presents archaeometrical, macroscopic and experimental data gathered on Crikvenica – Igralište site (Croatia). Roman pottery workshop was discovered and excavated there. By the stamps on tegulae we know that the workshop belonged to Sextus Metillius Maximus. Workshop produced amphorae, pottery, construction material and loom weights. Archaeometrical analysis confirmed that the clay used is from the immediate vicinity of the workshop. The raw material is only slightly enriched before shaping and baking by the removal of large fragments of limestone. Due to the nature of the main clay mineral expanding smectite, drying process had to take was unusually long, and it is baked at temperatures below 850 ° C in the oxidative atmosphere. Macroscopic analysis showed eight typical fabrics. By the fabrics and typology of vessels we managed to confirm distribution along coastal area, islands and shipwrecks of the northern area Roman province of Dalmatia in the interior of the region of Lika.
