Abstract

The subject of this paper is a gold solidus of the Ostrogothic king
Theodoric, which was minted in the name of the Byzantine emperor
Anastasius. It was discovered in the area of the settlement
of Lukar, which is located in the present-day municipality of
Promina and about fifteen kilometres northwest of the town of
Drniš. In addition to a brief outline of the archaeological topography
of Lukar, this paper also provides general information on the
findings of Ostrogothic coins, particularly in southern Croatia,
while the solidus of Theodoric itself is placed in a broader cultural
and historical context.
