Sažetak
As a part of the main Project Storie dal mare which has been carried by Department of Humanistic Studies, University of Trieste and in collaboration between Archeological Museum of Istria in Pula and Umag Municipal Museum in Croatia the research has been conducted in the Bay of Savudrija. The main aim of this project was the reconstruction of the ancient landscape and the evaluation of the shoreline during Roman Age. The goal of archaeological campaign in 2011 was to make a complete documentation of southern breakwater and pier (using the multibeam technique and total station) and to try to make topography of all roman architectural structures, visible along the coast. The ancient port basin in the bay of Savudrija includes a complex consisting of different structures, some of
which are visible along the bay. The basin was triangular in shape, and was closed by two symmetrically placed breakwaters. The other archaeological structures as pier and walls on the coast extend themselves along the southern line of the bay. The area containing the Roman structures belonged to a section of the first lowest terrace of a Roman structure which during Roman Age should be extended towards the sea. A preliminary analysis of the archaeological materials excavated in the bay indicates that the area was used since
the beginnings of the Empire until the Late Roman period, that is from the 1st to the 6th century.
