Abstract
The chapter house of the church and monastery of St. Francis
in Pula is most known for the Roman mosaic dated to the
2nd-3rd century AD, discovered during excavations in 1963.
From 2011 to 2014 the entire chapter house was investigated
archaeologically, except the part with the mosaic covering almost
a quarter of the area. During this investigation, below the recent
floor numerous remains of deceased, situated on the remains of Antique architecture, were discovered.
