Abstract
The article presents four previously unpublished epigraphic monuments that were found in the area of today's Solin, and once belonged to Salonitan eastern and northern necropolis. All of them were found as spolia, and there are three fragments and one complete monument. Two monuments are built into today's abandoned and crumbling houses in the Sveti Kajo (Vukšići) area of Solin, while the other two are built into the floor of the narthex of the early Christian basilica known as Šuplja crkva site. All four monuments are sepulchral, and the names of seven people are read on them. From an onomastic point of view, the repertoire of names in Dalmatia has been enriched by several new names (Funius, Allius, Epitynchanus, Munita), and there is also confirmation of the Italic toponym Tuder, which has also not been recorded in Dalmatia before. These inscriptions can be dated from the 1st to the 3rd centuries.
