Abstract (english)
Among the numerous pottery artefacts unearthed in archaeological excavations in Stari Grad on Hvar Island (modern Dalmatia, Croatia), preserving the material testimonies of Pharos, an ancient Greek polis in the central-eastern Adriatic, one particular fragment of a vessel, probably a fish plate, stands out as a remarkable and captivating artefact. This fragment features a subsequently incised image within the depression in the middle of its floor, identified as a graffito depicting a Gorgoneion, an image of the Gorgon's head. As such, it represents not only a unique advanced artistic expression from the 4th or early 3rd century BCE in a region where imagery is rare, but also evidence that a well-known Greek cultural tradition was practiced in the central Adriatic, embedded into the facets of insular cultural identity and possibly a religious/spiritual sphere.
