New Epigraphic Finds near Čačak

Abstract

The seventeen fragments in Latin, that have been found on Gradina-Jelica site near Čačak, сап be classtfied into two groups: the first one consists of an inscription of a beneficiarius and a dedication to Diana, and the second one includes fifteen fragments of Christian inscriptions. The monuments from the first group indicate the existence of a station of the beneficiarii consularis in the surroundings of Čačak, and a system of roads and ancient mines in this region. The fragments of the Christian inscriptions from Basilica A, which are impossible to organize into a whole, have been dated, according to their paleographic traits, to the end of the 4th or even perhaps the 5th c. A.D.
