Abstract (english)
The island of Korčula is characterized by a physical geography that was a prerequisite for a stable population and an efficient land use throughout Antiquity. Roughly 30 villa rustica sites, dated mostly from the 1st to the 6th century AD, testify to this observation. Numerous exquisite archaeological finds directly illustrate the intensity of the economy on the estates and the material status of the owners. Accordingly, various types of stone material made its way to Korčula from local and regional sources or those much further afield. Stone was used to manufacture diverse products: architectural structural and decorative elements and monuments of various kinds. Apparently, local high-quality limestone material originated from Korčula and the surrounding archipelago. Unfortunately, exploitation on a practically industrial scale can be safely attested to only for the late medieval period onwards. The exploitation of stone during Antiquity is represented by specific archaeological contexts, namely the submerged operational quay at Sutvara and the underground gallery quarries at Sutvara, Kamenjak and Vrnik, which will be presented in greater detail.
