Zur Lage von Magnum s. I. Glavaš, RadAkZadar 52, 2010, 45-59 ( http://hrcak.srce.hr/radovi-zavoda-za-povijesne-znanosti-hazu-zadar ); Zusammenfassung: "Magnum is located on an important road which leads from Salona to the legionary camp in Burnum. It connects the hill fort settlement on Balina glavica and the Roman settlement which developed at its foot. The municipal status of the settlement was confirmed in the inscription which was published in 1878 by Josip Alačević. In the late antiquity, Magnum was mentioned by Anonimus from Ravenna and in the other documents of the Salona Church Council in 533. The layout of the settlement was determined on the basis of satellite images, topographic maps and terrain exploration. In addition to the location of Magnum on the main road Salona – Burnum, there is also a connecting road leading to the junction of the internal traffic routes in the area of present day Unešić. The beginning of the road near the hamlet Mešini in Umljanovići is controlled by Bačića hill fort, which from prehistorical times supervised the crossing Moseć into the eastern part of Petrovo polje. Numerous votive inscriptions found on a pile of stones next to Marko Vrbatović’s field near the western foothill of Balina glavica, give evidence of the existence of a beneficiarial station in that place in Magnum. The beneficiarial Magnum station secured the intersection of roads and the crossing over the Čikola river near the former Vezovića bridge."
