Abstract

During the period from 7th November 2016 to 3rd April
2017, rescue archaeological excavations were carried out during
the installment of the new communal infrastructure in the area
around the De Villeov uspon Street in the old town centre of
Pula. On that occasion, a partly preserved route of an antique
paved street, sewage network and parts of masonry structures
belonging to Roman buildings were discovered. Besides these
finds, the remains of masonry structures belonging to a more
recent period have been unearthed, together with a functioning
Austro-Hungarian masonry canal, equipped with a cascade
manhole chamber, which joined the Roman sewage network
in the Sergijevaca Street. The excavation was performed along
the entire route of the De Villeov uspon Street and under the
supervision of AMI employees.
