Once the most important Roman city in continental Croatia, Sisak's subsequent history was marked by stormy and dramatic events, yet its Roman remains survived the onslaught of Avars, Franks and Turks. Part I of this volume summarises earlier published finds from the site, Part II charts the metalwork finds, here considered from the standpoint of their production, and Part III constitutes the first full publication of the Terra Sigillata, currently housed at the Archaeological Museum in Zagreb.
