Značaj i simbolika psa na sepulkralnim spomenicima Salone

The paper focuses on the Salonitan sepulchral monuments featuring dogs as a motif. The main goals have been to study the relationship between man and dog by contextualizing these iconographic motifs in various aspects such as hunting, cult, and the individualistic approach to the dog as a pet; and to use the analysis of the monuments to reconstruct the position and complex significance of the dog in the Roman society, revealing the symbolism of certain artistic templates found on the sepulchral monuments of Salona.
