In the newly independent country of Montenegro, not far from its capital (Podgorica), lies a Roman city, Doclea, once the chief
center of the southern province of Dalmatia. An early twentieth-century excavation, led by Piero Sticotti from Trieste, revealed
the forum, temples and other important monuments. After a long period of abandonment, new efforts are underway to resume
the investigations. Sergio Rinaldi Tufi is Professor of Archaeology and Greek and Roman Art History and Director of the Istituto
di Archeologia at the Università degli Studi di Urbino "Carlo Bo." In Italian.
