Sažetak
This article analyses a group of individuals in the territory of antique Liburnia, who chose a Liburnian cippus as their tombstone. Their ethnicity and civic status have been analyzed, which led to the conclusion that these monuments were erected equally by immigrants and those who might have been either of immigrant or native origin, as opposed to the few erected by confirmed members of autochthonous population. Cippi belonging to the slaves were equally scarce. Liburnian cippi were erected also by freedmen, but not by soldiers. The analysis has shown that Liburnian cippi had been one of the most expensive Liburnian epigraphical monuments, which indicates that they were a specific status symbol of the wealthy population of Liburnia, regardless of their ethnicity, social class or civic status.
