Sažetak

The article contains a discussion on cemeteries in Dalmatia, approximately
dated to the 7th and 8th centuries, and the grave
goods from them. Data are given on findings and interpretations
of the cremation graves, and on the more numerous skeleton
row-grave cemeteries, which speak of the quick acceptance
of inhumation by the newly-arrived Slavic population. The skeleton
row-grave cemetery of Kašić-Maklinovo Brdo has served
for demonstration of difficulties in the precise dating of particular
graves and the chronology of the entire cemetery. On the
basis of grave goods, an interpretation of the gradual acceptance
of Christianity during the 8th century is also shown. Finger
rings with Christian symbols, chosen for analysis in the article,
show a gradual Christianization of the newly-arrived inhabitants,
who were in close connection with the Byzantine towns in
Dalmatia. The early-medieval identity of the Slavic population
took its specific features from manifold influences, especially
those of Byzantium, the late-antique population and, at the end
of the period under discussion, the Carolingians.
