Abstract
Archaeological investigations on the site of Niševac (Timacum Maius) have
been conducted over a period of eight successive years by the Institute for
Balkan Studies in collaboration with the Centre for Tourism, Culture and
Sports of Svrljig and the French Bordeaux-based Ausonius Institute. The 2014
campaign came up with nine Roman bricks stamped with inscriptions of the
First Cohort of Cretans (Cohors I Cretum) built into the walls of a Roman
bath. The inscriptions provide evidence for the character, chronology and
history of the Roman settlement. [Projekat Ministarstva nauke Republike
