He was the chancellor of the Croatian royal court and one of the most important bishops of Nin. Over time, the monument has become the subject of a tradition and superstition - if you grab it by the thumb and make a wish, your wish will come true. Thousands of people do this regularly, and the thumb has been given a different color from the wear, which at least makes it easier to find a place to touch so that you can taste your happiness. It is in front of the north entrance to Diocletian's palace so you can also see Golden gate.
