Sažetak
The sepulchral monument with the inscription of Remmia
Maxima, embedded in the cloister of the monastery of St.
Bernardino of Siena in Kampor on the island of Rab, has been
known since the end of the 19th century. It was published
in the CIL (III 3125), but its typology has not been analysed
in detail yet. This paper defines the typological affiliation of
the monument, which corresponds to the osteothecae of
Salonitan production, on account of its stylistic and formal
features, and especially its dimensions. This, together with the content of the inscription, facilitates its more precise dating.
Furthermore, given the low abundance, and insufficient
knowledge of this type of monument in the province of
Dalmatia, the osteotheca from Rab is classified in a wider
group of such and related monuments from the central
Dalmatian area. The analysis of available information on the
spolium itself and on other monuments from the area of
Kampor is an attempt to reconstruct its possible find-spot as
well as its numerous reuses, ultimately including embedment
in its present location.
The osteotheca from Rab, as a new type of sepulchral
monument on the island, as well as in the greater area of
Kvarner, enhances previous knowledge about ancient funerary
monuments of northern Liburnia and their origin, all the while
pointing to another more monumental solution within the
(rural?) necropolises of Rab.
