Sažetak
This paper deals with an altar dedicated to the goddess Salacia.
Salacia was known as the wife of the god Neptune, and
this is the first monument to this goddess in Dalmatia and
only the second anywhere else in the Roman Empire. This
fact alone means that the discovery and publication of such
a rare monument contributes to new knowledge on Roman
religion both on the eastern Adriatic coast and in the Empire
as a whole. The altar was found in Trogir, where it was walled
into another structure as a spolia during Late Antiquity.
