ABOUT SOME GENERAL PROBLEMS REGARDING THE BAŠKA TABLET

LUJO MARGETIĆ

Abstract

As a starting point of his analysis author delivers well augmented statements of P. Vežić regarding year 1300 as foundation date of St. Lucia church in Jurandvor. By the same token, author states that the text of the Baška tablet was engraved during the fi rst half of the twelfthcentury, or more precisely either at the beginning of 1105 or after 1118. Therefore, author in this article investigates possibilities of the latter alternative, and concludes that Baška tablet has to be somehow connected with the fi rst notes about counts of Krk as governors of this island. Consequently, author suggests, following the analysis of Jagić, new datation of Baška tablet, namely that year engraved in the plate should be read as »1120«.
