Aucissa Fibulae with inscriptions from the Collections of the Museum of Croatian Archaeological Monuments

Tomislav Šeparović ; Muzej hrvatskih arheoloških spomenika HR -Split 21 000

Abstract

The author discusses 20 fibulae of the Aucissa type with inscriptions that are in the collections of the museum of Croatian Archaeologica monnuments in Split and which come from central Dalmatian sites. Most of these fibulae were manufactured by craftsmen of Celtic origin in northern Italian workshops. It is hypothesized, however, that several examples were produced on Dalmatian territory. The author also touches on the unavoidable question of the dating of Aucissa fibulae in general. Their first appearance in the Roman province of Dalmatia is attributed on the basis of numismatic finds to between 15BC and the end of the first decade AD, while their
use continued into the first decade of the second centery AD.
