Abstract
Around a hundred skeletal graves have been excavated so far at the provincial-Roman cemetery at Štrbinci near Đakovo from the 2nd half of the 4th and the 1st half of the 5th century. Among the majority of grave goods, average in terms of the frequency of presence in the late Roman cemeteries in Pannonia, there were several that can be considered exceptional by virtue of their material, status and/or cultural rarity, value or singularity. Among these finds are two fragments of iron chain mesh, both deposited in children’s graves. These finds are interpreted in this work as pieces of a chain mail, and their role in the funerary cult as a ritual-apotropaic procedure connected with premature death. The custom of depositing such objects in a provincial-Roman millieu probably arrived from the barbarian cultural circle, most likely the Gepid or Gothic one.
