New Inscriptions from Pannonia and Dalmatia

Abstract

The paper presents three epigraphic monuments from Dalmatia and Pannonia. The first altar was dedicated to Jupiter and probably Silvanus, whose cult was widespread in Danubian and Balkan provinces of the Roman Empire. It was discovered at the site Graduština near Beljin in Serbia, on the territory of Pannonia. The second altat was found at the site of Crkvina in Gračanica, in the region of Ljubovija in western Serbia. The area presumably belonged to the mining district of Domavia in Dalmatia. The monument was dedicated to Jupiter Fulminator or Fulgurator. Judging by its palaeographic features, it should be dated to the third century AD. The third monument is the altar dedicated to Jupiter by a centurion of the the cohort I milliaria Delmatarum. It was discovered in Skelani in Dalmatia. It suggests the presence of the cohort’s detachment in the Roman settlement.
