Sažetak

This paper examines a newly discovered votive altar dedicated to the goddess Terra Mater, from Ratarska Ulica (Ratarska Street) in Sremska Mitrovica (ancient Sirmium). This is the first recorded evidence of this deity in Sirmium. The analysed monument, an accidental find, was donated to the National Museum of Serbia in Belgrade. This paper will describe the monument and interpret its inscription. It will also attempt to understand the monument within its micro- and macro-regional contexts, examining its similarities and differences compared to monuments mentioning the same deity in Pannonia and other neighbouring provinces (Dacian provinces, Dalmatia, and Moesia Superior).
