Animal economy at Belgrade Fortress during the Roman and Late Medieval period
Dating the Late Neolithic of the central Morava region
The site of Stublina, first excavated in 1956 by Milutin Garašanin of the Institute of Archaeology and Radoslav Galović of the National Museum Belgrade is located at the southeast outskirts of the Supska village near the town of Ćurpija, in Central Serbia. Its location on the edge of the flood plain of the Central Balkans’ major waterway, the Velika Morava River, places it on a major corridor extending south to north, linking southern Europe and …
Challenging the boom-and-bust models? The fourth millennium BC copper mine of Curak in south-west Serbia
Despite an early surge in copper-ore mining during the sixth and fifth millennia BC (the 'boom'), evidence for metal production in the Balkans dwindles in the fourth millennium (the 'bust'). Here, the authors present new evidence for copper mining at Curak in south-west Serbia, c. 3800 cal BC, during this apparent downturn. By integrating field surveys, excavations and provenance analyses, they explore activity at the site, challenging the visibi…
Dental profiling in the archaeological sample of the Illyrian population in Southern Dalmatia, Croatia
The Illyrian community on the island of Korcula relied primarily on agriculture for their food, consuming only cereals, vegetables, and meat from domesticated animals. They did not extensively use marine resources. They were in good health generally. The individuals examined were native residents of the island and can be associated through their dental morphology with the Western Eurasian population group. The average lifespan of the population c…
High heat on the tell
Buildings destroyed by fire are frequently discovered at sites of the Neolithic Vinca culture of south-eastern Europe. The social context and practical aspects of prehistoric house burning have long been studied through the analyses of architectural and artefactual remains and through experimental building and firing of wattle-and-daub structures. In contrast, very few studies have used the remains of plant foodstuffs from within and under the ho…
From Neolithic to Copper Age
Uivar "Gomilă", a long-awaited and overdue first volume (of a planned set of three), presents, in seven chapters, a comprehensive account of the results of archaeological research on the site of Uivar, Romania. It reports on 10 seasons of investigation into the north-eastern periphery of the Vinča Culture phenomenon and the occurrence of tell settlements in the second half of the sixth millennium BC. Multiple contributors-mostly members of the or…
Teeth macroabrasion for determination of dental age and diet in the Illyrian population from the Kopila necropolis on the Island of Korčula, Croatia
0.390). The average age of the analyzed population sample was 35.6 (±3.1) years. They were buried between 360-40 BC. Tooth wear changes observed on the analyzed teeth indicate a diet rich in hard, weakly cariogenic food with particles that were probably of inorganic origin, which caused an increased wear of tooth structures. The population was sedentary, agricultural type and the life expectancy was normal for the Late Iron Age. Besides, their so…
Severe traumatic lesions in the Late Neolithic cattle from the site of At-Vršac, Serbia
This paper aims to assess the etiology and differential diagnosis of severe pathological lesions in wild and domestic cattle from the Late Neolithic site of At-Vršac in the northeast part of the present-day Serbia. Excavations of this multilayered site revealed the remains of a Late Neolithic settlement belonging to the Vinča culture network of the Central Balkans. An aurochs metacarpal bone, two domestic cattle fragments of fused ulna and radius…
The Tisza divide. The missing late Neolithic transformation in the north Bačka region of Serbia
A New Bronze Age Mega-fort in Southeastern Europe
A newly discovered network of later Bronze Age fortified sites of unusually large size are discussed, with a primary focus on results of excavations at the site of Gradište Iđoš. Closely associated with the rivers Mureš, Tisza, and Danube, these sites are located in the southeast of the Carpathian Basin in central Europe. On current evidence, the main period of construction and occupation took place between 1400–1100 b.c., probably constituting s…
Seeking the Holy Grail
The strengths of formal Bayesian chronological modelling are restated, combining as it does knowledge of the archaeology with the radiocarbon dating of carefully chosen samples of known taphonomy in association with diagnostic material culture. The risks of dating bone samples are reviewed, along with a brief history of the development of approaches to the radiocarbon dating of bone. In reply to Strien (2017), selected topics concerned with the e…

Analog vs. Digital Documentation – Cutting the Costs, Expanding the Possibilities. Idjoš Gradište Case Study
The article deals with the use of an integrated GIs-and image-based modelling approach to archaeological field documentation, developed for the Borderlands: ArISE project. The project, established in 2014, examines social boundaries and interactions from the early Neolithic to the early Iron Age period in the north-east Banat region of modern Serbia. Archaeological excavations at the site of Gradite near Idjo are at the core of the project, aimed…

Late Neolithic Tisza sites in the Serbian part of Banat
The paper reviews the current state of research and our knowledge of the Late Neolithic Tisza tradition sites in the Serbian Banat. The first sites were discovered almost one and a half centuries ago, while the first archaeological excavations were undertaken in the late 19th century. The overview of the known sites in the first part of the study is followed by data on fresh research that was resumed in the first decade of the 21st century
Interwoven Strands for Refining the Chronology of the Neolithic Tell of Vinča-Belo Brdo, Serbia
A formally modeled radiocarbon chronology for a new profile through the great Neolithic tell of Vinča-Belo Brdo, Serbia, is the third interwoven strand in refining the chronology of the tell. This now joins models for the whole sequence based on the archive of early excavations, and for the last two known horizons at the top of the settlement mound, investigated in recent decades. In the new deep sounding, Vinča culture occupation from the 52nd c…
A Vinča potscape
Recent work at Vinča-Belo Brdo has combined a total of more than 200 radiocarbon dates with an array of other information to construct much more precise narratives for the structural history of the site and the cultural materials recovered from it. In this paper, we present the results of a recent attempt to construct formal models for the chronology of the wider Vinča potscape, so that we can place our now detailed understanding of changes at Be…
Modelling obsidian trade routes during late Neolithic in the south-east Banat region of Vrsac using GIS
The aim of this paper is to reconstruct the possible trajectory of the movement of the obsidian that was brought to the region of present day Vrsac from Carpathian 1 and Carpathian 2 sources, located between Kosice and Miskolc (the present day border area between Hungary and Slovakia). This objective has been fulfilled using computer aided modelling performed within the constraints of geographic information system software based on the physical c…
