Votivna ara Jupitera Kapitolinskog
Votive ara of the Iupiter Capitolian

Summary/Abstract: The paper discusses the newly discovered votive altar dedicated to the main Roman deity of Jupiter Capitolinus. Originally derived from Rogatica but transported to Kondžilo area (municipality of Visoko), it sheds a new light on the personality of Marcus Ulpius Marcianus already known from another epigraphic altar from Živaljevići, also near Rogatica. Bearing this fact in mind, it can be assumed that Marcianus was an official person included in the Political-administrative life and thus played an important role in the Roman city of Col. Ris... which is presumed to be in Rogatica. More importantly, it imposes some new ideas about the process of romanization of Rogatica area and confirms the fact that Roman-time Rogatica was one of the most developed Roman settlements of Bosnia at the time.
