Sažetak
The basis of the economy of the Roman period can be divided into agricultural and artisan production. The main agricultural sectors were viticulture, olive growing, farming, cattle breeding and hunting and fishing. The main sectors of artisan productions were considered as mining, quarrying, the manufacture of metals objects from iron, bronze, silver and gold, and the production of ceramics, glass, wood and textiles also involved a large part of the economy, and also did the slave trade. The transportation of various products in the Roman Empire was possible because of the continuous policy of transport networks via any land or any sea. In the Roman world there developed parallel regional, interregional and interprovincial trade. Regional estates and workshops to a great degree influenced the economy of a single province whether they distributed on a certain narrower (local) area or if the demand of the product covered a large part of one province or many provinces. In this paper we will try to point out the influence of Crikvenica’s ceramic workshops on the
economy of the northern part of the Roman province of Dalmatia with a special emphasis on the products found in Senj.
