Sažetak

The paper presents general data on the early Christian period on the territory of today’s Serbia, from the period of tetrarchy to the end of late antiquity. At the time on the territory of Serbia there were several late antique Roman provinces with wealthy cities that were the centers of Christian life. In the 3rd and 4th century, the most important city was Sirmium, the center of the prefecture of Illyricum, and from the end of the 4th century, the center of the archdiocese. The presentation is based on historical literary sources and archaeological materials. Some particularly interesting aspects of the development of Christianity in the study area were picked from the abundance of data. Some events, like the of persecution of Christians in the beginning of the 4th century, theological debates in the later part of the 4th century, the establishment of the archdiocese in the city of Justiniana Prima in the 6th century, had great significance within the entire area of the Roman Empire, and are especially highlighted in the paper. Some elements of archaeological heritage (painted tombs, the burying in churches) are also highlighted and are viewed in the wider context of early Christian archeology.
