Sažetak
In this article, the fragments of painted plaster and marble from
the Roman villas located on the Katoro and Katoro-Tiola sites
next to Umag, were analyzed. The preserved décor was once
part of the wall and ceiling surface. Dating of the fragments was
suggested based on the stylistical analysis. The fragments with
painted lace bordure specific for the Fourth style on a yellow and
white background were found on the Katoro site, while on the
Katoro-Tiola site one fragment showing lace bordure from the
end of the 1st or the beginning of the 2nd century was preserved
as well as few fragments on a white background with different
motifs that have been placed in the 2nd century. Marble findings
on the site have been scarce, but all the same show former
glory of the villa. The preserved fragments prove the existence of
marble opus sectile floors as well as the use of marble elements
for horizontal separation of wall surfaces.
