Map 20 Pannonia-Dalmatia Compiled by P. Kos and M. Šašel Kos, 1995 Introduction The map covers very heterogeneous landscapes ranging from the Adriatic coast to the Alps, and from the mountainous interiors of the provinces of Dalmatia and Pannonia with their rich ore sources to the Pannonian plain. The current state of research–to some degree reflected by the map–is uneven. Thus the Carinthian province of Austria (Piccottini 1989), Slovenia (ANSl 1975), and Bosnia and Herzegovina (ALBiH) are better explored topographically than other regions where no compilations of archaeological sites have been published. The results of topographical research conducted over the past thirty years by Bojanovski (1988) are of great importance. Much antiquarian and topographic information has been collected for Histria and Venetia by Vedaldi Iasbez (1994), with particular attention to Greek and Latin writers. Similarly substantial collection and assessment of data for the Dalmatian coast and islands are provided by Kozličić (1990). TIR Tergeste (1961), TIR Aquincum (1968) and TIR Naissus (1976) are also of value for the areas they cover, though not always reliable. Mócsy’s work (RE Suppl. 9 Pannonia) remains fundamental for the province of Pannonia. As Kozličić (1986) has shown, since antiquity geomorphological changes along the Dalmatian and Istrian coasts have been minimal, if only because no very large rivers flow into the Adriatic; the map therefore retains the modern coastline. The coast of the eastern Adriatic is, however, sinking at a minimal rate annually (Šegota 1976). Geographic names by no means always appear in the nominative in the Greek and Latin sources; the point applies especially to ItAnt, ItBurd, TabPeut and GeogRav, which often represent the only evidence. Since they typically list names in the ablative or locative (genitive) cases, it can prove impossible to reconstruct the original nominative. Hence the nominative of Ragandone was undoubtedly Ragando, and that of Populos may in all likelihood have been Populi; by contrast, the nominative of place names ending in -is cannot be inferred with any certainty. Since their gender could either be neuter or feminine (and possibly even masculine), the nominative of Lentulis may have been either Lentula or Lentulae. In those cases where the original nominative remains ambiguous, the attested form of the name is therefore retained within single inverted commas; where the nominative can plausibly be reconstructed, that form is marked with an asterisk attached (see Map Key). It is no less difficult to decide between variant attested forms of any name; we have sought to mark what seems the least corrupt form, regardless of the source in which it appears. There are many unidentifiable geographic names in Late Roman and Byzantine sources. The point applies especially to GeogRav (for Dalmatia, Čače 1993 is exhaustive). He distorts a number of known toponyms (Atamine for Emona, for example, Sicce for Siscia), but also lists others unattested elsewhere. Such are, for example, twenty-five in “Carneola, que et Alpes Iuliana antiquitus dicebatur” (present-day Upper Carniola), of which Carnium alone can be identified (Šašel 1970). Various place names mentioned by Stephanus, Procopius (Beševliev 1970) and above all Constantine Porphyrogenitus, De administrando imperio (notably chapters 29 and 30 on Dalmatia), reflect historical and geographical circumstances closer to the Middle Ages than to the Late Roman period. The epoch treated by Constantine was decisively influenced by the formation of the countries of Croatia, Serbia and Bulgaria, as well as by the presence of other Slavs. Some names appearing in these authors may well be corrupt beyond recovery; for certain, they distort other, more recognizable ones.
