Sažetak
In the correspondence between two Roman bishops Vigilius (537-555) and Gregory I the Great (590-604) one can find information about the Patrimony of St. Peter in Dalmatia. In the letter addressed to his deacons Sebastian and Rusticus, dating from year 584/594, Pope Vigilius has mentioned the Patrimony of St. Peter in Dalmatia four times (Dalmatiarum patrimonium, patrimonium in Dalmatia). Pope Gregory I the Great in his letters, dating from year 592, 593 and 594, also speaks about the Patrimony of St. Peter in Dalmatia (patrimonium in Dalmatia) and about the Patrimony of Holy Church (patrimonium Sanctae ecclesiae). Administrators of the Patrimony of St. Peter in Dalmatia (rectorres) were also papal legates in the diocese of Salona (i. e. Dalmatia). As papal representatives, although they were in the rank with minor Church orders, they had extraordinary authority in Dalmatian clerics. They could handle investigations concerning Archibishops of Salona, and they could deny bishops- right to palium and they could excomunicate them from the Church. The available sourches, unfortunately, cannot tell us much about the origin of this papal Dalmatian Patrimony, as well as they are silent about its exact location.
