Summary/Abstract: The paper deals with the testimonies of legionаry soldiers, praetorians and urbaniciani of origin from Heraclea. The inscriptions of these soldiers sparked a debate in the literature on the identification of that Heraclea – as Heraclea Sintica (near Petrich) or Heraclea Lyncestis (Bitola). At the centre of the problems to be discussed in the report stays the significance of the Fabia tribus as the main marker for the identification of the domo Heraclea with the town of Heraclea Sintica.
