Summary (English)

  • In 2001, the excavations were continued on three locations: the city wall between the “western” and “Trajan`s” gateway, north of “Trajan`s” gateway, and on the location of the gateway on the NE section of the citywall. Two burials from the second phase of the Late Antique necropolis were uncovered between the “western” and “Trajan`s” gateways. Several Antique spolia were used in the construction of the inner facing of the Late Antique wall. During the excavations of the city walls north of “Trajan`s” gateway, Late Antique buttresses – a reinforcement of the Late Republican city walls – were found. Buttresses stand at regular intervals between the second and third, and the third and fourth Late Republican towers. Along that stretch of the wall, two phases of Late Antique burials were identified. Features of the urban tissue were found near the gateway on the NE section of the city wall. Several rooms were investigated, and three building phases identified. (Marko Sinobad)
