U Vranjicu je 2006. godine pronađen fragment dotad nepoznatoga grčkog javnog natpisa (RADIĆ ROSSI 2008), a preliminarno je čitanje objavljeno 2012. godine (KUNTIĆ-MAKVIĆ I MAROHNIĆ 2010). Datira se u ...4. stoljeće prije Krista. U radu donosimo epigrafsku analizu i komentar te natpis interpretiramo kao počasni javni natpis.
Članak donosi sliku carskog štovanja u rimskom Oneju pri čemu je glavna pozornost usmjerena na žrtvenik Božanskog Augusta, božice Rome i Genija carske obitelji (Genius domus Augusta). Riječ je o vrlo ...zanimljivom kultnom spomeniku, ne samo zbog njegove višestruke posvećenosti nego i zbog činjenice da ga podiže pomoćna vojna jedinica, Cohors I Gallica Voluntariorum, što je ujedno i njezin prvi spomen u provinciji Dalmaciji.
Prema sadržaju Peregrinova natpisa podignutoga 382. godine u cemeterijalnoj bazilici na Manastirinama G. B. de Rossi je pretpostavio postojanje židovske vjerske zajednice i njezinoga groblja u Saloni ...(coemeterium legis Iudaicae). Njegova je teza osnažena kada je F. Bulić na Gospinu otoku, oko stotinu metara istočno od salonitanskih gradskih zidina, pronašao ulomak sarkofaga s prikazom menore datiran u početak 4. stoljeća. Prisutnost Židova u Saloni indiciraju i neki drugi nalazi: keramička svjetiljka s prikazom menore iz 4. stoljeća, zatim gema s prikazom menore, šofara, etroga i lulava datirana između 4. i 7. stoljeća. Izravan dokaz za postojanje židovske vjerske zajednice je ulomak natpisa koji spominje tri religijske skupine: Rimljane, Židove i kršćane. Takav redoslijed odgovara vremenu kada kršćanstvo još nije bilo afirmirano i stoga natpis valja datirati u kraj 3. ili početak 4. stoljeća. Na kraju, mora se spomenuti i nadgrobni natpis Samarijanke No---, preminule godine 539. i porijeklom iz još uvijek nepoznatog sela Pit---. Nemoguće je odrediti je li vjerom pripadala kršćanima ili Samarijancima.

The epitaph of Priest Iohannes (CIL III 9527, Salona, August 13, 599 or AD 603) is one of the few inscriptions from the sixth-century Salona, which can be dated with precision. It is also one of the ...rare inscriptions from Dalmatia of this period, which mention a person (proconsul Marcellinus) known from other sources (Registrum epistularum of Pope Gregory the Great). However, its linguistic importance seems to be summarized in the remark of its most recent editor Nancy Gauthier (2010) that the language of the epitaph reflects the features of Latin spoken in Dalmatia at the time (“la langue vivante”). The aim of this paper was to check the plausibility of this statement by comparing the Vulgar Latin features in the inscription with the results of research on Latin in late Dalmatia. Also, a new interpretation of the word obsis l. 13 is proposed.
Salona and Tilurium were two settlements at a distance of some 30 km.
Salona was a city and a Roman colonia, while Tilurium was a fortress of the
Seventh Legion. These two settlements were ...interconnected economically and
culturally, as the former was the latter’s harbour, supplying it with various commodities
for the army units. As early as the foundation of the fortress, Tilurium
became a stone carving centre, whose workshops produced the so-called Gardun
Trophy and a series of funerary stelae decorated with weapons and military
equipment. There is no doubt that the carvers in Tilurium continued their
work for several decades after finishing the Gardun Trophy. The soldiers of the
Seventh Legion, stationed at Tilurium, were detached to serve in Salona, where
some of them died. Despite being produced in Salona, their funerary monuments
were designed in imitation of “Tilurian” shapes, which is further proved
by the kind of stone used (most probably the limestone from the quarry in Siget,
a village in the vicinity of Trogir, Roman Tragurium, a coastal town northwest
of Salona). Once the Seventh Legion had left Tilurium, the stone carvers moved
to the fortress of the Ninth Legion at Burnum, where they continued to produce
funerary monuments showing “Tilurian” characteristics. Later on, iconographic
traits of Tilurian workshops appeared sporadically in Salona (doors by the
sides of the inscription field on one sarcophagus). When the soldiers had left for
the Danube limes, the inhabitants of the area still sometimes purchased funerary
stones in Salona (the sarcophagus of Claudia Quintina).
The author publishes a stele of a veteran of legio VII Claudia pia fidelis found in Siculi. He provides reading of the inscription, onomastic analysis and interpretation in the context of other ...epigraphic confirmations of the legionary veterans in Salona in the 1st century and their settlement in Siculi in the period of the Emperor Claudius (41-54).
A stepwise change in atmospheric oxygen (O2) levels during the Ordovician has been attributed to the emergence of land plants. This phenomenon is tied to a major baseline shift in the stable carbon ...isotope (δ13C) curve and inferred increase in nutrient delivery and enhanced primary productivity in nearshore settings, which led to high organic carbon burial. The timing and magnitude of this baseline shift, however, is still elusive in part because of the lack of high-resolution δ13C data that span this period. Much of the existing Ordovician δ13C literature is focused on isotopic excursions with less emphasis on identifying long-term shifts in baseline (pre- and post-excursion) values.
This study presents new high resolution δ13C data from stratigraphic sections at Germany Valley (West Virginia) and Union Furnace (Pennsylvania) in the Central Appalachian Basin. These sections span the entire Sandbian Stage and continue into the lower Katian Stage. The δ13C data from both sections are characterized by relative stability carbon isotope values (mean = −0.61‰) in the lower Sandbian, followed by a + 1.2‰ shift in the upper Sandbian (mean = +0.62‰). Herein, we propose that the positive shift represents a long-term global shift in baseline δ13C values of dissolved inorganic carbon. The timing of this positive shift coinciding with the diversification of early land plants (i.e., bryophytes) supports earlier models that suggested enhanced organic carbon burial rates served as a mechanism for the stepwise oxygenation of the atmosphere during the Late Ordovician.
