Sažetak

The small village of Jurjevo, not far from Senj (Hrvatsko primorje), is known to archaeological science as the Roman settlement of Lopsica. But numerous prehistoric
finds, such as pottery sherds, bronze fibulae, a bronze knife, etc., indicate that settlement was already established in Jurjevo in the older iron age. The most recent find consists of a pair of coiles-temple pendants with ring additions and a small leech fibula, both of bronze. The fibula belongs to the younger variant of that italian type. According to this, the complete find should be dated to the beginning
of the Ha D period. Although no proper and accurate information as to the context of the find is available, it seems that we are dealing with a grave of the older iron age, ethnically belonging to the Japodi. This last find, taken in context with some older ones, confirms the existence of an iron-age settlement and cemetery
in the area of the current village of Jurjevo.
