Rural Roman settlements near Donji Miholjac

Abstract

Donji Miholjac se često spominje u kontekstu položaja mansio Maurianis, prema jeruzalemskom (Burdigalskom) itinerariju. Na prostru općine Donji Miholjac utvrđen je manji broj rimskodobnih lokaliteta. U ovom radu se prikazuju rimskodobni lokaliteti poznati iz literature te dva nova lokaliteta koji su rezultati rekognosciranja u okolici Rakitovice južno od Donjeg Miholjca. Na povišenim položajima meandrirajuće rijeke Karašice pronađena su dva rimskodobna lokaliteta koji se prema nalazima datiraju u drugu polovicu drugog i treće stoljeće.Donji Miholjac is often mentioned in the context of the site of mansio Maurianis, in accordance with Itinerarium Burdigalense.

This paper presents sites from the Roman period known from the literature, as well as two new sites as a result of a field survey in Rakitovica area, south of Donji Miholjac. Two sites from the Roman period which are dated by the finds to the second half of the second century and the third century were discovered at elevated positions of the meandering river of Karašica
