| Sažetak (hrvatski) | Tijekom druge kampanje projekta Arheološka topografija otoka Raba, provedene 2014. godine, reambulirano je više lokaliteta i pozicija na području grada Raba. Među novoevidentiranim lokalitetima posebno se ističu oni za koje možemo pretpostaviti ruralno-gospodarski karakter te antičko/kasnoantičku dataciju, a smještaju se kako uz obalu na području Barbata, tako i u unutrašnjosti otoka, unutar Mundanijskog polja. Rezultati prve kampanje projekta predstavljeni su u travnju 2014. godine u Loparu kroz izložbu Arheološka topografija: putovanje kroz prošlost Lopara. |
| Sažetak (engleski) | In October 2014, field surveys were conducted in the city of Rab area (Island of Rab, Croatia) on several sites and locations that had not been previously documented in literature. Several known sites were also surveyed, especially in the town centre to gain insight into the current state. The research is part of the Archaeaological Topography of the Island of Rab project, executed by the Institute of Archaeology and the Conservation Department in Rijeka, financed by the Ministry of Culture and City of Rab.
All sites and locations with finds in situ were documented and referenced by GPS devices, and all data was registered in GIS system. The second phase of the database was also launched in 2014, which will, along with the spatial data, comprise a system for future analysis and presentations of collected data.
Research results suggest several sites with walled structures and mobile finds that were previously unknown. For one of these sites (e.g. Za markovićem, Mirine, Valmartina, and also Mundanije-Koplaca) we can assume rural-economic features and date it back to the Antiquity/Late Antiquity. Interestingly, the sites in question can be found both on the island coast (Barbat), as well as inland (Mundanijsko polje), on favourable natural terrain with possible road infrastructure. For later periods, there are several smaller church sites that sometimes appear either on or immediately next to the ancient sites.
Thanks to the Culture Centre and Municipality of Lopar, Institute of Archaeology and associates, exhibition Archaeological topography: a journey through the history of Lopar was opened in April 2014 to present the current finds regarding the archaeological heritage of the Lopar peninsula and to raise public awareness of this segment of cultural richness in Lopar. |
