Sažetak

Two Salona stelae are examined which bear portraits of members
of Legio VII Claudia pia fidelis: the stela of signifer Gaius Lucretius
and the veteran Lucius Caesius Bassus. They were discovered under
unknown circumstances in the eighteenth century, together with
two other monuments of members belonging to the same unit,
about which Alberto Fortis first wrote. The fragments of the stela of
Gaius Lucretius once stood built into the stable of Count Pavlovic
(later Parac) in the heart of Solin, and after it was torn down, all
trace of it was lost. Two images were shown on the stela, and
not just one as stated in CIL. The stela of Lucius Caesius Bassus is
known from a copper engraving published in the travelogue of L.
F. Cassas and has not been preserved to the present. The author
proves the authenticity of the sketch by Cassas and concludes that
the stela most likely emerged during the reign of Nero, at the very
beginning of the seventh decade of the first century AD. The time
of Legio VII’s departure from Dalmatia for Moesia is discussed.
