Abstract

A survey of above-ground structures in the settlements within the central distribution area of the Starčevo culture at the present state of research reveals that this type of structure started to be built at the end of the Monochrome phase and the beginning of the Linear A phase. The discovery of an above-ground structure from the Linear A phase in the Starčevo settlement at Galovo in Slavonski Brod is more proof that eastern Croatia formed part of the central distribution area of the Starčevo culture, where settlements were built through all its developmental phases (with the exception of the Monochrome phase). The 14C dates have provided evidence that the development of the Starčevo culture in eastern Croatia, Vojvodina and Serbia was synchronous, and that the middle course of the Sava river in central and eastern Slavonia should definitely be considered part of the original area of development of the Starčevo culture.
