Inscribed Base of a Greek Trophy Monument

Inscribed Base of a Greek Trophy Monument

The inscription on the stone base praises the victory of the Greek Pharians, founders of the settlement of the Aegean Parians on the spot of the present-day Stari Grad on the island of Hvar. The short text mentions that the Pharians ''captured'' weapons from the Jadasini and their allies, which basically means that at that moment they won an important victory over them. This is an important epigraphic monument, a historical document relating to an event from the end of the 4th cent. B.C.
