Salona (Ancient Greek: Σάλωνα, Latin: Salo) was an ancient city and the capital of the Roman province of Dalmatia near Split, in Croatia. It was one of the largest cities of the late Roman Empire with approximately 60,000 inhabitants. It was the last residence of the final Western Roman Emperor Julius Nepos and acted as the de facto capital of the Western Roman Empire during the years 476–480. Salona was founded in the third century BC and was mostly destroyed during the invasions of the Avars and Slavs in the seventh century AD. Despite this, there remain many Roman characteristics, including walls, a forum, a theatre, an amphitheatre, public baths and an aqueduct.
