Nadin : liburnski kult mrtvih, istrazivanja 2004.-2006., 2009. god

The author presents the latest results of the excavations of Liburnian Nadin (modern Croatia) in the context of current knowledge about the Nadin archaeological complex from the Early Bronze Age to the 17th century. Burial mound 13 was completely explored as well as the grave area (measuring 14 x 6,8 m) designated as "cella I" within a flat necropolis at the foot of Gradina (Nedinum). Burial mound 13, dated from the ninth to the sixth centuries BC, has 19 circularly (concentrically) distributed graves, with 37 identified individuals (16,2% of which were children). This burial mound contributes significantly to the study of Liburnian burial mounds: their planimetry, certain constructional, ritual and social aspects. [Abridged Publication Abstract]
