Roman inscriptions from the Slovenian territory kept in Trieste

Abstract

Using epigraphic databases, the author collected Roman stone monuments with Latin inscriptions that originate from the Slovenian territory, but are now kept in Trieste. Thirteen monuments are arranged in the alphabetical order of their excavation sites, translated, and supplemented with commentaries, put in context, and dated where possible. The formed group of inscriptions encompasses practically all types of Roman inscriptions – funerary, votive, imperial, and building inscriptions, inscriptions of legal nature, etc. – recording the names of ordinary people as well as soldiers, veterans, and even emperors.
