Abstract

The region of Dalmatia, today territory of Croatia, is located in the eastern part of the Adriatic Sea, and stretches from the town of Karlobag (Carlopago in Italian) in the north to Cape Oštro at the tip of the Prevlaka Peninsula in the south. It is a narrow strip of land, dotted by a series of bays, with the Dinaric Alps in the background, and hundreds of islands along the coast. Bordering Dalmatia to the south is the Bay of Kotor (Boka Kotorska, and Bocche di Cattaro in Italian), an area that is today part of Montenegro.
