Sažetak

During July and August 2007, the Institute of Archaeology in Zagreb and the Archaeological Museum in Osijek conducted a continuation of systematic archaeological excavations of the Early Neolithic Starčevo culture settlement at the Galovo site in Slavonski Brod. These explorations, encompassing an area of 150 m2, were conducted along the southern part of the already explored settlement which, in the past years, resulted in discovery of the new working pit 291, small pit 963 and trench 955 of a wooden semicircular fence. Among the clay pottery from the pit – pots, bowls, and bowls on pedestals, particularly outstanding is a part of a pot in S profile, decorated by pressing the top of a finger in a manner symbolically representing spikes of grain (“sculpted spike”). There are incisions on the body of this pot – rows of short lines symbolically representing decorative stitches on leather. The authors conclude that the pot is a realistic imitation of sewn leather goatskin which, prior to the discovery of clay pottery, served to hold liquids and store food. Beside the fragments of clay pottery in pit 291, a large quantity of stone artefacts were found – 1,083 in total, including numerous cutting tools, flakes, plates, millstone parts, 36 whole cores and 26 core fragments. The special finds in the pit include a pintadera, bone needles – awls and part of an altar with protome shaped like a ram’s head. The inventory of working pit 291 and pit 963, like the previous finds at the site, stylistically belongs to the initial period of Starčevo culture developed called Linear A.
