Sažetak

The Collection of Roman inscriptions of the Archaeological Museum Zadar contains a large number of monuments found on the wider territory of the Roman legionary fortress in Burnum. In its introduction, the paper discusses a funerary stele from Burnum, included already in the third volume of CIL, which was purchased from the local residents by Croatian Franciscan Lujo Marun in 1903. The content and the lettering of the inscription allows a relatively accurate dating. Symptomatically, however, the Museum’s collection includes a small stone slab with the identical text as on the above mentioned stele. Since the epigraphic and tectonic elements of the slab lack logic in many aspects, the paper is trying to prove it is a forgery.
