AN ROMAN PERIOD SHIPWRECK WITH A CARGO OF AMPHORAE ROMaN PeRIOD ShIPWRecK IN The ČaVLIN ShaLLOWS There are several hundred Roman pe- riod shipwrecks in the Croatian part of the Adriatic Sea, the majority of which are devastated, but about a dozen of which have survived the ravages of time and unethical looters. They have been preserved intact, or with only minor damage, which offers underwater archaeologists an oppor- tunity for complete research. The very large number of Roman ship- wrecks is not unexpected, but speaks rather of the intensity of trade and importance of navigation on the eastern side of the Adriatic Sea, and of the dangers our sea hides. Roman period shipwrecks can be dated either by the type of cargo they carried or by some further analysis (the age of the wood, for example), and the datings range from the 4th century BC to the 6th century. The cargos of these ships were varied: from fine pot- tery, vessels and plates, stone construction elements and brick to the most frequent cargo – amphorae. The amphora was used as packag- ing from the period of the Greece colonisation to the late Roman and the Byzantine supremacy. There are remains of shipwrecks with cargos of amphorae that can be researched on the seabed, covered by Archaeological underwater excavation with the aid of a water dredge protective iron cages, and there are those that, as per documentation, need to be raised to the surface and presented on land.

  • Home Port Dubrovnik - Mljet Island
    SEVEN DAYS SOUTH ADRIATIC ROUTE Day 1: Home Port Dubrovnik - Mljet Island The charter begins with embarkation in one of the world’s most stunning destinations: The City of Dubrovnik. The city has often been referred to as the "Pearl of the Adriatic" and was inducted into the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1979 as a city of rich culture and history. The Old Town of Dubrovnik is surrounded by 1,970 metres of city walls. Dubrovnik is an elite destination famous for its beautiful beaches, pristine sea, top-notch restaurants, chic five-star hotels and adventure sports facilities. After the embarkation of the guests, the charter makes its way to the beautiful Mljet Island. This is Croatia's greenest island, covered by a dense Mediterranean forest. It is famous for its sandy shoreline, clear and clean sea, and a wealth of underwater sea life. This unspoiled island is well known for its white and red wine, olives and goat cheese. It is the place to peacefully enjoy the pristine beauty of the nature. Mljet National Park covers the entire north-west part of Mljet Island. An amazing natural gem found on Mljet is the Veliko (Big) and Malo (Small) lakes. These lakes are found within the Mljet islands and are known for having very warm water during the summer, between 24 and 29°C. The salinity on the surface of the lakes is even lower than in the open sea. In the Veliko lake, guests will also be able to visit tiny St. Mary’s island famous for its historic monastery and church.

Present energy supply on Croatian islands relies on fossil fuels and electricity from the mainland. Exploitation of renewable energy sources, for which there is great potential on Croatian islands due to their geographic location and climate, leads towards self-sufficiency and sustainable development. In order to design a self-sufficient and sustainable island, integration of renewable energy sources alongside with energy savings is needed, with attention to be given to energy storage.

Prior systematic researches were not conducted, except for the ones which were carried out for specific purposes, i.e. for the design of the Urban Development Plan and Physical Plan of the Lastovo County in 1983 and Amendments to the Plan in 2000 and for the writing up of the Program of Integral Development of the Lastovo region. Key words: rural architecture, Lastovo Geographical characteristics of the island astovo is the remotest and the southernmost Croatian Lisland. Its area is 46.9 km²; it is 11 kilometers long and around 6.5 kilometers wide. Between peaks of mountains composed of limestone, the highest peak being Hum (417 m), there are many Karst valleys, of which the most important ones are Prgovo, Pržina, Lokavje and Vinopolje. Forests cover around 60% of the island, and are mostly composed of macchia, Aleppo pines and evergreen Holm-oak.

COASTLINE LENGTHS AND AREAS OF ISLANDS IN THE CROATIAN PART OF THE ADRIATIC SEA DETERMINED FROM THE TOPOGRAPHIC MAPS AT THE SCALE OF 1 : 25 000 TEA DUPLANČIĆ LEDER1 UDC: 911.3:32](497.5)(210.7) TIN UJEVIĆ2 Original scientific paper MENDI ČALA1 Izvorni znanstveni članak 1Hydrographic Institute of the Republic of Croatia Hrvatski hidrografski institut 2InfoKARTA, Mažuranićevo šetalište 14, Split Primljeno: 2004-05-09 Received: In this paper, modern definition of island established by the IHO has been accepted, and classification of islands, islets, rocks and rocks awash has been proposed according to their areas. The coastline of the Croatian part of the Adriatic Sea was digitized from topographic maps produced at the scale of 1 : 25 000 (TM 25). Topographic maps used for digitization are more precise than the maps that were used in earlier works and consequently the data on the number of islands and their coastline lengths and areas are more precise. Polygons of islands were closed in GIS package AutoCAD Map 2000, and each was given its name. From the obtained database and classification of islands, islets and rocks, in the coastal sea area of the Republic of Croatia 79 islands, 525 islets, and 642 rocks and rocks awash, or a total of 1246 have been recorded. Furthermore, it has been established that on TM 25 the island of Cres has the largest area (405.70 km2), although in literature so far (including atlases) the island of Krk was most often cited as the largest island in the Adriatic Sea.
