| Na obali, sjecištu morskih i kopnenih putova,
u prethistorijsko i antičko doba cvala je Salona,
stoljećima metropola rimske provincije Dalmacije
čiju ulogu od ranog srednjeg vijeka preuzima Split. Od V. do II stoljeća prije naše ere grčki kolonisti osnivaju na otocima i kopnu gradska naselja. U blizini Salone car Dioklecijan, i sam porijeklom Dalmatinac, dao je sagraditi prostranu palaču u koju se povukao 303. godine. Dioklecijanova palača postala je jezgra unutar koje se ugnijezdio srednjovjekovni Split. Nije stoga čudno da u srednjem vijeku uz ruševine Salone, u blizini Splita, hrvatski vladari podižu crkve i mauzoleje. U ovim iznimno lijepim krajolicima nataložili su se kulturni slojevi s mnogobrojnim spomenicima. Dioklecijanova palača upisana je u UNESCO-ov registar spomenika svjetskog značenja. |
On the coast, the crossroads of continental and sea-
ways, during the prehistoric and ancient era, the town of Salona has developed as the
metropolis of the Roman province Dalmatia, whose role was taken over by Split in the early
Middle Ages. From 5th to 2nd century B.C, the Greek colonists founded some urban settlements on the islands and on the land. Emperor Diocletian, who was of Dalmatian origin himself, has had a huge palace built, into which he retired in the year 303. The Diocletian's palace become the centre, out of which the medieval town of Split has developed. Therefore, it is understandable that the medieval Croatian rulers have had many churches and mausoleums built on the ruins of Salona, near Split. This extraordinary beautiful area abounds in cultural monuments. The Diocletian's palace is recorded into the UNESCO register of monuments of universal importance. |
