Overview

This analysis reveals how trade networks influenced regional identity in Osor, highlighting local subsistence and cosmopolitanism.

Key Points

  • Osor's identity evolved from a prehistoric settlement to a major proto-urban center, influenced by trade and local factors.
  • The emergence of specialized classes shaped Osor’s social structure and economic landscape during the 1st millennium BC.
  • Intensified hierarchization of settlements in the Adriatic increased the complexity of social and political institutions.
  • Osor's unique economy, marked by both local subsistence and long-distance trade, distinguished it from nearby centers like Histrian Nesactium.
