Abstract

A fragment of a limestone stele was found in Baška near the base of the wall of an old stone house (Kružna St 29). The inscription reads: - - - For]/tunatạ[e - - - paren]/tibus pii[ssimis - - -]/ Q(uinto) Arrio [- - -]/frat(ri) po[sterisque - - -]/suis [- - -. It is dated to the first half of the 2nd century AD. The monument might have come from the Roman necropolis at the nearby St. Mark site in Baška.
