Abstract
The paper presents an analysis of two relatively new and unpublished
acquisitions of the Archaeological Museum in Zagreb
which were exhibited, soon after purchase and conservation, as
part of the new permanent exhibition of the Medieval Collection.
These one-handed medieval swords were found in the gravel of
the River Kupa, extracted near the village of Donja Kupčina. The
swords can be characterized as type α and dated to the Early and
High Middle Ages. Though it is not uncommon to find swords of
this type in the territory of present-day Croatia, the great archaeological
and historical value of these specimens is represented
by the exceptional condition they were found in. The fact that
two related swords were found in the same territory increases
their archaeological and historical value, because it warrants
progress in the research of the medieval period in this relatively
unexplored area of Pokuplje.
