Sažetak
The presence of Byzantium on the eastern Adriatic coast is possible to track continually through several centuries. It begins with the Byzantine - Ostrogoth war in the 6th century and, with smaller and greater
intensity, lasts until the 12th century and the death of Emperor Manuel I Komnenos, who was the last ruler to make a significant influence on the regions of present-day Croatia. Within the parameters of historical
and art sciences, the Byzantine influence on society, culture and art of Croatia and neighbouring Sclavinias has been recognized for a long time. In comparison to the previously mentioned, archaeological literature is
significantly less abundant. This can particularly be applied to the time period of the 10th and 11th centuries.
In the periodization relevant for the areas which are part of the Byzantine cultural circle, these two centuries are within the period marked as mid-Byzantine, dated in the span from the 9th to the 12th century. Therefore,
I consider several types of objects which are widely known and published about that I believe belong precisely in the mid-Byzantine era and are worth the additional mention. These are pectoral and reliquary
crosses and certain types of jewellery (earrings, necklaces, appliqués and pendants). Finally, based on the
criteria suggested for the analysis of archaeological discoveries of Byzantine provenance by M. Wołoszyn, I attempt to determine the position of Croatia and its neighbouring Sclavinias in relation to the region that
D. Obolensky marked as Byzantine Commonwealth.
