The forgotten Toponyms Within the Historical Core of Split

U ovom se radu iznosi dio rezultata istraživanja toponimije grada Splita, koja je kao tema zahvaćena znanstvenim projektom na Filozofskom fakultetu Sveučilišta u Splitu. Obrađuju se pretežito zaboravljeni odonimi koji su ostali zabilježeni u povijesnim vrelima, a neki od njih sačuvali su se danas u imenima ulica. Ripa Maris, dio uvale splitske luke zapadno od zida Dioklecijanove palače, nazvan po položaju uz more; Fenestris, prostor u jugoistočnom dijelu Palače, nazvan po prozorskim otvorima; Sdoria, srednjovjekovni naziv, nastao prema konsistorijalnoj dvorani splitske Nadbiskupije; Pistura, prostor zapadno od Palače, nazvan po sporednim gradskim vratima; Obrov, prostor zapadno od srednjovjekovnih splitskih zidina, nazvan po obrambenom rovu; Šperun, zapadni polubastion splitskih bedema, nastao od talijanske riječi sperone (kljun). Autori su koristili povijesna vrela i kritičkim razmatranjem dosadašnjih tumačenja došli do nekih novih zaključaka o obrađenim toponimima. Pet toponima romanskog su porijekla, a jedan hrvatskoga.The authors present some results of the research on the toponymy of Split as the topic of a scientific project carried out at the Academy of Arts, University of Split. Several toponyms are presented, recorded in the documents but mostly forgotten, some of them preserved in the form of the names of streets. - Ripa maris, a part of a bay of the port of Split west of the wall of Diocletian’s palace, named after the position on the very coast, - Fenestris, the site in the south-east part of the Palace, named after the windows on the façade, - Sdoria, the mediaeval name for the former consistorial hall of the Archdiocese of Split, - Pistura, the area to the west of the Palace, named after the accessory entrance, - Obrov, the area to the west of the mediaeval town walls, named after the defence ditch, - Šperun, the western semi-bastion of the town walls; the toponym originates from the Italian word sperone (rostrum). The authors used historical sources and with a critical analysis of the past interpretation have come to some new conclusions about the examined toponyms. Five among the analysed toponyms are of Romance, and one of Croatian origin
