Abstract

The Institute of Archaeology, in collaboration with the Archaeological Department of the Vinkovci Municipal Museum, carried out a field survey and trial excavation for the construction of a part of the eastern bypass around the Vinkovci. The route of the bypass runs along the north-eastern edge of the town, across gentle elevations placed between Mirkovci and Nuštar (Fig. 1). It is a part of the town where archaeological sites are already known, primarily on the basis of the collected surface finds and conducted minor rescue excavations. In a field survey and trial excavations three archaeological sites were found which confirms the dense population of the Vinkovci area during all time periods.
