Sažetak

The Veternica cave is the oldest archaeological site in the Zagreb
area. Excavations between 1951 and 1971, yielded material dating
from the Middle Palaeolithic to the Roman times including
the human remains ascribed to various prehistoric periods (Palaeolithic,
Mesolithic, Neolithic, and Bronze Age). Recent smallscale
excavations yielded additional human skeletal fragments.
Here we present the results of direct dating of the human remains.
Although the results remove this sample from the list of
prehistoric human remains, they provide the data for the study
of biological properties and cultural practices of local inhabitants
during the turbulent times of the Roman presence in the
region.
