Sažetak

Institute of Archaeology in Zagreb continued systematic archaeological excavations at Galovo site in July 2016. This year, the research of the section west and south of the working pit SU 3316/3317 explored in 2015 continued. West from this working pit a trench SU 3496/3497 of northwest-southeast orientation was excavated 18 m in length which represents the southern end of the large wooden fence SU 20 excavated in 1997 situated south of the large burial pit 9. Various large and small postholes were discovered in the trench with very large postholes situated every 2 m. This fence had an entrance 2 m wide in the part west of the large pit SU 3316/3317. Fragments of daub were found suggesting the firmer construction of the upper part of the fence. This fence was possibly built around the central part of the settlement. The southern end of the trench continues to the unexplored area of the site. Specific features of early Neolithic Galovo site are, among others, numerous fences explored previously which separated burial area from the settlement. This year’s discovery of a part of the large fence around the central part of the settlement confirms a new dimension of the organization of early Neolithic life in the early stages of the development of Starčevo culture and completes the image of the settlements and life of the first European farmers.
