Abstract

In January 1982. sondage excavation was carried out in the cave Pazjanice, which is situated in the wall of the canyon of Velika Paklenica, southern Velebit range, about 2 km from the Adriatic coast, and at the altitude of 320 m above the sea level. Dimensions of the sondage trench were 1 x 3,5 m. Animal bones (sheep/ /goat, cattle /deer, pigs) and pottery sherds (plates I, II), which were recovered from the dark-brown stratum at the depth of about 35—55 cm, testify of periodical human habitation during the Copper and Bronze age. Judging by the traces of fire which are present in all strata, the cave was occasionaly used as a shelter up to the present days.
