Sažetak
In this paper the author presents results of field surveys and rescue excavations at three sites. Islands of Sestrunj
and Dugi Otok were presented exclusively on the basis of field surveys, whereas underwater rescue archaeological
research was carried out in Splitska on the island of Brač. This research indicated that quarries in the vicinity of
Splitska were exploited most intensively during the construction of the palace of the Emperor Diocletian. On the
islands of Sestrunj and Dugi Otok, there are visible remains of quays for loading stone into ships, and wharfs for
transporting stone blocks to the sea. Recovered archaeological finds date these complexes to the period of antiquity.
