Sažetak

During the archaeological research of the Campus of the University of J. J. Strossmayer in Osijek, at the site of today’s Faculty of Agriculture, 2003–2005 an architectural complex named Area 1 was researched inside which four votive altars dedicated to Silvanus were found (they include his epithets Magnus, Domesticus, Silvester and Augustus). Covering the area of 1390 m2, the complex is located along the city road with the internal division into three spatial units: the central space, eastern and western rooms. Considering the architectural and structural features of the complex, the number of votive altars dedicated to Silvanus in one place and the correlations with numerous sanctuaries of Silvanus of different character attested across the Empire, we open a possibility that Area 1 was the place where Silvanus was worshipped in Mursa.
