Sažetak

Based on examples of inscriptions from Salona
and the Aquileian circle, two forms of freedmen
associations have been distinguished: seviri and seviri
Augustales. The latter were cultores, active participants
in the imperial cult who came from the ranks
of Salona’s plutocratic families (Turanii, Clodii, Vetii,
Albucii…). The links between the Augustales and the
Metroac cognati in the context of the Julio-Claudian
ideology of imperial power are demonstrated. After
12 BC, when Augustus became pontifex maximus, the key persons in the dissemination of the imperial cult
in Italy and the provinces, and thus in Salona, were
the imperial amici: seviri Augustales originally from
the familia Caesaris, knights of the imperial administration,
and, after 14 AD, the senators in the lobbying
organization known as the sodales Augustales.
