Sažetak
The Roman port of Zaton near Nin was discovered in the 1960s. Preliminary excavations indicated it was a spacious port with a breakwater. The cultural layer is very rich and offers an insight into intensive trade and cultural connections. This paper analyzes the archaeological finds of Eastern Mediterranean production, terra sigillata B, collected during excavations of the Roman port of Zaton. The shapes, size and subtypes of 16 types of vessels are typologically compared. Based on different dimensions and shapes and their versions and taking into account the quality of clay, representative specimens of every form are singled out and graphically presented in plates (Pl.) as combinations of drawings and photographs.
Prominent among these pottery finds are vessel bases with pottery stamps on the inside. These bases are presented in seven tables (Tab.), each with a photograph and outlines of its stamp. The graffiti carved on the outer, sometimes on the inner, side of the vessels are drawn in the plates (Pl.).
