Sažetak

This work briefly outlines the results of field work on the island of Palagruža conducted in September 2003 which was a resumption of works that commenced in 1996 and 2002. There are descriptions of the fragment of a ceramic strainer from the early Neolithic period found at Jonkova njiva, Late Roman architecture (“fortification”) discovered in front of the Church of St. Michael, and numerous finds, particularly of Greek and Hellenistic pottery, on the southern slope, which also confirms the existence of a Diomedes sanctuary on Palagruža. Georadar remote sensing has shown that there are older architectural remains under the stone pavement used to collect rainwater. Signs in three languages have been posted to caution visitors of the importance of their preservation. Works have also commenced on the project to landscape Salamandrija and set up an archeological collection in the lighthouse.
