Unpublished Fragment of a Tropaeum of Salona

Nenad Cambi

Sažetak

Owned by Miro Mužić of Sv. Kajo (Solin) is a fragment made of the local lime stone, showing a Roman triumph, and making part of a public monument of Salona. The central part of the relief shows a tropaeum (wooden, cross-like structure with a helmet on the top and dressed in a belted dress, with two crossed shields and two spears at each side). At the right side is a defeated soldier's head. The arrangement of the figures is typical of the Roman official triumphal images. The helmet is a Late Classical one, and the dress most probably is an infantry, also Late Classical, item worn over the armour. The relief is a low one, and its execution primitive. Obviously it belonged to an official monument frieze. According to the figures and arms style analysis, it is undoubtedly Late Classical, most probably from the 4th or early 5th century latest. It is impossible to determine which Roman victory it was dedicated to.
