Novopronađeni epigrafski spomenik princepsa Mezeja u Jajcu / The newly discovered epigraphic monument of the princeps of the Maezaei in Jajce

In the summer of 2021. a new epigraphic monument was found in the immediate vicinity of the town of Jajce. It mentions Dasius, princeps of illyrian nation Maezeiand a priest of the imperial cult. In addition to the inscription, there is a beautifully made relief of a man with a saddled horse on the monument. Judging by the context of the find, the location where it was found is not its primary location. The inscription was probably used in earlier centuries in the construction of mosques or churches that were demolished in 1992 or 1993, and then that material was dislocated to the location where it was found. This valuable inscription provides an insight into the administrative and institutional structure of the Maezei civitas, about which no data have been available so far.
