Abstract

The prehistoric hillforts in the Primošten/Rogoznica Region are notable for their position at elevated sites. They are enclosed by drystone ramparts, constructed mostly in a single row, with parts of steep cliffs being usually incorporated into their defensive systems. The walls surrounding two hillforts – Okrubljak and Kremik – are reinforced in places. Dwelling structures within the hillforts have not been explored as yet, but surface findings – mostly pottery – date them back to the Bronze and Iron Ages. Out of seven topographically described hillforts, several have been covered by aerial photos and, accordingly, recognised and published.
