Sažetak
Durin April 2016, the Zagreb Institute of Archaeology, in cooperation with the Institute of Archaeology, Cardinal Stefan Wyszyński University in Warsaw, conducted geophisical survey and geological sampling at Slavonski Brod – Galovo, Vinkovci – Sopot, Vinkovci – Blato, Marinci – Segetac i Bršadin – Pašnjak pod selom atchaeological sites together with Sovsko jezero position. During the survey geological samples were collected which will be used for the reconstruction of paeloecological and paleoclimate conditions for the area of northern Croatia. By using multiple non-invasive geophysical methods, the existence of new cultural layers (at Galovo, Sopot, Segetac and Pašnjak pod selom sites) or archaeological features (for ex. the existence of a new ditch around the western part of the Sopot site or the eastern ditch around part of the Segetac site with possible remains of wooden houses on the same site) has been confirmed. The use of geophysical methods has proven to be extremely useful in the discovery of archeological features which are not visible at the surface of the sites or parts of the sites not archaeologically explored. With these methods, it is possible to obtain results that can serve as guidance for future archeological research or site protection with fewer resources in the shorter periods of time. Geological sampling at or near sites enables the reconstruction of ecological conditions at the time the sites were settled and the reconstruction of paleoclimate indicators. These indicators will later be compared with the known paleoclimate proxies for the Northern Hemisphere and will thus contribute to a better understanding of climate events in the past.
