Sažetak
The Small Roman Theatre in Pula is a major cultural
monument that bears witness to the city’s status during the
Roman administration. It was buried and unnoticed for many
years, having been exploited primarily as a source of construction
materials for nearby structures. It had been forgotten by the 19th c.
until the initial investigation that uncovered one of the entrances
to the theatre. The uncovering of the remains of the theatre
continued gradually in the 20th c.; this was, however, attended
by record keeping typical of the time in which it was performed.
As a result, we now have very modest surviving data on the
investigation of the theatre. The same is true of the reconstruction
interventions that have been performed, the scope of which in
places was so significant as to have altered the appearance of the
monument in relation to the condition prior to the intervention.
The objective of this paper is to consolidate the available data
in order to obtain an overview of the events associated with the
Small Roman Theatre up to the end of the 20th c.
