This work present the results of LiDAR scanning, geophysical surveys, and archaeological excavations of selected sites located between the rivers Krka (Titius flumen) and Cetina (Hyppus flumen). These new results, which indicate the earliest known activities of the Roman army in the area, were generated within the framework of a scientific research...

Ancient DNA research in the past decade has revealed that European population structure changed dramatically in the prehistoric period (14,000–3000 years before present, YBP), reflecting the widespread introduction of Neolithic farmer and Bronze Age Steppe ancestries. However, little is known about how population structure changed from the historic...

The rise and fall of the Roman Empire was a socio-political process with enormous ramifications for human history. The Middle Danube was a crucial frontier and a crossroads for population and cultural movement. Here we present genome-wide data from 136 Balkan individuals dated to the 1st millennium CE. Despite extensive militarization and cultural...

This research paper explores the application of a unique field survey approach designed to deal with site detection and interpretation in karst fields. The method has its limitations, and it is predominantly focused on detecting sites from antiquity because of the nature of the material remains left in the landscape from those times. Nevertheless,...

Human migrations are an integral part of human history. They can be both a cause and a consequence, but also a catalyst for social change in an area. Until recently, migrations during the Roman conquests were poorly represented in the scientific discussion in relation to reports and comments on wars and other political events and figures. The same...

Finds of late Roman military equipment in Croatia are relatively small in number. This paper offers a review of the known material that was or can be linked to cavalry usage. These finds are rare and often lacking a larger context despite a proposed presence of cavalry units on the Danube frontier in the 4th century. Better understanding a particul...

Briga o vodi jedno je od najvažnijih pitanja opskrbe svake zajednice. Tome svjedoče i brojni arheološki nalazi antičkih vodovoda, bunara, cisterni i fontana. Ovi primjeri vodoopskrbne infrastrukture revolucionarizirani su upravo u rimsko vrijeme, koje je na postojeća saznanja o upravljanju vodama dodalo niz tehnologija. Međutim, arheološki nalazi č...

One of the last stages of the Delmataean-Pannonian rebellion took place in the area between Burnum and Tilurium between 6 and 9 AD. This revolt is known as the Bellum Batonianum, which was named after the two leaders of the rebellion. Suetonius’ words in Tiberius’s biography (Suet. Tib. 16.1) ...gravissimum omnium externorum bellorum post Punica, b...

Na području između Burna i Tilurija odvijala se od 6. do 9. godine jedna od posljednjih faza delmatsko-panonskog ustanka. Taj ustanak, poznat pod imenom Bellum Batonianum, dobio je ime po Batonima, vođama pobunjenika. O kakvom se sukobu radilo i koliko je on uzdrmao rimsku državu najbolje svjedoče Svetonijeve riječi u Tiberijevoj biografiji (Suet....

Fragmenti - časopis studenata Odsjeka za arheologiju, 2018 U radu se iznose rezultati studentskog projekta „Mapiranje arheološkog lokaliteta Velić u kontekstu povijesnih cestovnih komunikacija“ provedenog 2017. godine. Višegodišnji rad na lokalitetu Velić otvorio je pitanje njegovog smještaja u kontekstu ostalih lokaliteta šireg triljskog područja...

Fragmenti - časopis studenata Odsjeka za arheologiju, 2017 Ovaj rad donosi rezultate trogodišnjeg studentskog projekta mapiranja arheološkog nalazišta Velić, slučajno otkrivenog 2011. godine u Cetinskoj krajini. Područje upisano u Registar kulturnih dobara relativno je velikih dimenzija i nalazi se u uvjetima iznimno guste vegetacije koja je oteža...
