Including The Roman Archaeological Site at Solin
This map depicts the city of Split and its surrounding region on the Southern Croatian Coastline. Prominently, the map includes detailed urban and rural layouts, transportation routes, and natural features such as coastline and topography.
In the upper-left corner, an inset highlights Solin and its archaeological excavations, indicating the area's rich historical significance, particularly as the site of the ancient Roman city of Salona.
Following the end of World War II, Split and the surrounding region experienced significant political and social changes. Croatia became part of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia under Josip Broz Tito. This period marked the beginning of Yugoslavia's socialist reconstruction, with efforts focused on rebuilding war-torn infrastructure, fostering industrial growth, and establishing state-controlled economic systems.
The inclusion of Solin's archaeological sites on the map underscores the ongoing interest in cultural restoration during this period. Solin, once the capital of the Roman province of Dalmatia, became a focus of archaeological exploration, as these ancient remains were seen as symbols of regional pride and identity within the new Yugoslavia.
