Amber workshops in Central Europe during the Early Iron Age. Technology, chemical analyses, and Amber Roads
The largest peak in the distribution of raw amber from the Baltic and the North Sea throughout European history can be identified in the middle of the 1st millennium BC. Raw amber was processed in the amber workshops the Early Iron Age (800–370 BC). This study reveals how these amber workshops can be reliably identified and what their distribution reveals about long-distance exchange systems in Europe. The amber was not only a strategic commodity…
Children's graves at the Middle La Tène cemetery of Zvonimirovo (Croatia)
The cemetery of Zvonimirovo is currently the only systematically researched cemetery of the La Tène culture in northern Croatia that can be dated to the Middle La Tène period (LT C2). Previous research studies were focused on richly equipped graves of warriors with weapons and of women with costume and jewellery items. The results of the anthropological analysis indicate that children under 14 years of age were also buried at the cemetery and rec…
Farewell to the Young
The study of burials and mortuary practices in the past provides essential information on the role and treatment of children in past communities. This study aims to better understand the status of children by reviewing the material culture provided by child burial contexts. Early Iron Age (800–300 BC) mortuary practices in the southern Middle Danube (present–day eastern Croatia and northwestern Serbia) are characterized mostly by the cremation of…

Childhood in Batina at the end of the late bronze age and the beginning of the early iron age
Batina is a multi-layered site situated on a prominent position above the Danube on Bansko Brdo in Baranja. This site holds particular significance for understanding the broader picture of settlement in the Middle Danube region during the Late Bronze Age and the beginning of the Early Iron Age, from the 11th to the 7th century BC. Numerous chance finds described in the literature are housed in nine different museums across Europe. Recent excavati…
Late Hallstatt female head/hair decoration in Donja Dolina and the southern Carpathian basin (II)
Various kinds of temple rings played an important role in female body decoration in the southern Carpathian Basin during the Early Iron Age. Based on finds from graves, especially at the cemetery in Donja Dolina, four basic types of temple rings have been distinguished, according to differences in the design of their terminals, while different variants were recognized based on the method of shaping of the body. Temple rings were most commonly mad…
Kasnohalštatske falere tipa Magdalenska gora iz zapadnoga Srijema (istočna Hrvatska)
Razdoblje je kasnoga halštata u jugoistočnome dijelu Karpatske kotline definirano prepoznatljivom skupinom nalaza – većinom predmetima ženske nošnje i nakita – koji se pripisuju srijemskoj grupi. Za sada su na grobljima u manjem broju zabilježeni nalazi naoružanja i konjske opreme. Srijemska grupa tijekom svih faza razvoja bila je izložena različitim utjecajima, od kojih su najprepoznatljiviji oni s prostora srednjega Balkana te jugoistočnoalpsko…
Late La Tène horse equipment of the Scordisci - trefoil-shaped terret rings from Eastern Croatia
The various Late La T?ne items of horse equipment found at the sites of the Scordisci include trefoil-shaped terret rings made of copper alloy. Two shape types have been identified; the much more numerous type has a rounded, protruding and decorated plate. These terret rings have parallels in the south-eastern Alpine region and at sites in Central Europe; their abundance at the sites of the Scordisci probably indicates that they were made in loca…
Late la Tène fibulae of the Rakitno-type. Evidence of contacts between the western Balkans and the southern part of the Carpathian basin
Fibulae with a knob on a backward-bent foot, of which different variants of the Picugi type are probably best known, evolved in the eastern Adriatic and its hinterland, and the wider south-eastern Alps during the last two centuries BC. A similar but distinct type of fibula named the Rakitno type has been identified based on its morphological characteristics and distribution. Fibulae of this type have mainly been recorded at sites in Bosnia and He…
Iron belts of the Dalj type - a study of regionalisation of the Middle La Tène female costume
A characteristic element of the Middle La T?ne Scordiscan female costume are the various types of iron and bronze belts, which can often be connected with contemporaneous types from the Carpathian Basin. One such form are iron belts of the Dalj type, composed of pairs of twisted rod-shaped segments with loops, connected with rings, which differ in the shape of mostly iron, only rarely bronze buckles. Dalj type belts are numerous in south-eastern …
Late Hallstatt Female Head/Hair Decoration in the Southern Carpathian Basin. Temple Rings of the Ciumbrud and Donja Dolina Types
The Late Hallstatt period in the southern Carpathian Basin is marked by complex cultural relations for which the current knowledge is mostly based on the analyses of cemeteries. One of the most prolific forms of female jewellery in graves is bronze and silver temple rings that were used to decorate the head or hair. This is testified to by finds from the inhumation graves in Donja Dolina, where several pairs of temple rings, often of different fo…
On some pottery forms from the Batina-Sredno cemetery from the beginning of the Early Iron Age
On some pottery forms from the Batina-Sredno cemetery from the beginning of the Early Iron Age Batina (Kiskszeg), on the Danube in Baranya, is one of the most significant sites in the southern Carpathian Basin from the end of the Late Bronze age and the beginning of the early Iron age. For more than a century, Batina has been the source of exceptional finds which are considered to originate from destroyed funerary complexes. the collected finds h…
New Finds of Bronze Fibulae with Enamel – What Women Liked to Wear during the Middle and Late La Tène in the Southern Carpathian Basin
Not just a belt
The focus of the paper is on bronze astragal belts in the south-eastern part of the Carpathian Basin, interpreted as part of the female costume. In particular, their production seems to have two peaks, one at the end of the Early Iron Age (6th-4th cent. BC) and another during the Late La T?ne period. However, there is a continuity of the form throughout the Late Iron Age. Requiring a significant amount of material and craftsmanship, these belts i…
Changing Identities of the Iron Age Communities of Southern Pannonia
The process of transition in each area/community was a unique combination of all or some of the general features which started from, and resulted in, a more or less uniform cultural complex. Deconstruction of the transitional Late Urnfield/Early Iron Age cultural package into separate elements which have their own independent dynamics provides us with a model to study that process. It seems that each cultural group followed its own dynamics of ch…
