Statues of household gods, i.e.
lares, with a considerable influence of Greek archaic plastics,
have been preserved, which bears witness to a powerful
interaction between different, actually very remote cultures of
those times. At the time when Nesactium was a military colony,
it had a characteristic aspect of a Roman settlement, a forum
with three temples and other public buildings and a powerful
defence system. In the 5th century two monumental early
Christian basilicas were built, which were destroyed in the 6th
and 7th centuries, together with the entire town, by the Avars
and Slavs. The most valuable finds from Nesactium are kept in
the Archaeological Museum of Istria in Pula. |
