Sažetak
Thirty-seven graves of the Early Bronze Age have been excavated at the Beli Manastir - Širine site. The graves belonged to a community that made and used encrusted pottery. Between 2015 and 2017, 110 pieces of pottery from this site were restored as part of the cooperation between the Croatian Conservation Institute and the Institute of Archaeology. This paper presents the complex conservation and restoration carried out on pottery from grave 8, both on whole vessels and on fragments. The grave had a large number of objects, which were found in a very fragmented state and partially mixed. The work required, among other things, good organization of time and space. During excavation, the grave was divided into 46 special finds (PN). When conservation and restoration was completed, it was determined that there were 62 vessels and a smallish fragment of bronze sheet in the grave. Conservation and restoration were carried out in several phases, and their main task was to restore the identity and integrity of these significant archaeological finds, and stabilize and prevent their further deterioration. All the materials that were used are reversible, and all stages were extensively documented and photographed.
