Sažetak
The Institute of Archaeology carried out trial research on three locations north of Grubišno Polje – Šuma Obrovi 1 (fort), Grubišno Polje - Šuma Obrovi 2 (church with cemetery) and Mala Peratovica- Šuma Obrovi (fort), all united under the name Šuma Obrovi, Grubišno Polje archaeological site. All three locations and a series of surrounding positions suggest there are remains of a medieval village and represent extreme potential for exploring medieval society along the fort – church and cemetery – village axis, given that so far the archeaological research into such a phenomenon in Croatia has been scarce.
There were numerous finds at the three-part fort Grubišno Polje-Šuma Obrovi 1 according to which it was attributed as a late 15th and early 16th-century facility (spur, arrow, buckle, pottery, maiolica, etc.), as well as the remains of a palisade and a bridge construction. Another fort, approximately a kilometre away, Mala Peratovica – Šuma Obrovi can be said to be dating back to the 14th and 15th century. The church cemetery at Grubišno Polje – Šuma Obrovi was where the villagers were buried, the traces of which were assumed at close proximity to the other site based on the field survey.
