Abstract

The article deals with the Roman-era artefact found during adaptation of a section of the former Convent of St. Clare, specifically the Church of St. Andrew de fenestris and the palace of the Božićević (Natalis) family, which is now held in the Ethnographic Museum in Split. This is the stela of Julia Victorina, to whom the monument was most likely placed in the first half of the 3rd century by her spouse, Aurelius Filo. In terms of appearance, this stela does not stand out in any way from similar stelae from the first half of the 3rd century, but the inscription on it has several linguistic features which may be attributed to Vulgar Latinity in the Salona environs. The possibility that the inscription had originally been placed somewhere on the Split peninsula once more opens the question of the type of settlements in this territory prior to construction of Diocletian’s Palace.
