Abstract
Ninth season of archaeological research on the Crikvenica-Ad turres site has, once again, been riddled with problems which hindered field work, this time due to heavy rain flooding the site and most of the surrounding area. Thankfully, the resources granted by the Ministry of Culture were reallocated to finance primary analysis of previous research, which included washing, initial sorting of the finds and database entry.
Exhibition 845°C Ad Turres was organized in collaboration with the Museum of Crikvenica in 2014 to encourage the popularization of science by presenting results of the research conducted so far. Apart from the team of experts from the Institute of Archaeology and Museum's employees, many experts and collaborators participated in the exhibition which focused on guiding the visitors through the earliest history of the Crikvenica and Vinodol area. Some of the material was on loan from the Archaeological Museum in Zagreb, Maritime and History Museum of the Croatian Coast in Rijeka and private collections.
