Sažetak

Almost seventy years ago, in her paper published in Peristil No. 2, Branka Vikić-Belančić suggested that a damaged and somewhat worn-out ancient Roman head of a woman found in Solin might have been related to the portraiture of the empress Sabina. However, although she attributed the head to the portraiture of the early Hadrianic age, in her opinion of still dominantly Trajanic in style, she did not reach the final conclusion about the identity of the depicted woman. This paper, except for being an hommage to the seventieth anniversary
of the scholarly journal Peristil, represents an effort to resolve the issue of the identity of this female head from the Collection of the Archaeological Museum in Zagreb. Considering more recent studies of portraits of imperial women of Trajan’s and Hadrian’s age, all of the preconditions for identification of the depicted person have been established.
