Abstract

This paper presents a mediaeval archaeological site at Vojakovački Osijek-Mihalj, which consists of three structures – an earthen fortification and two stone structures, probably with a sacral function. The archaeological monumental complex on Mihalj, where to this day no archaeological excavations have been carried out, but which shows itself to be an important and above all interesting site for mediaeval archaeology, is placed into a narrower chronological and spatial context, on the basis of multidisciplinary analysis of the results of historical-topographical research, external archaeological morphological features of the site itself and the study of analogous mediaeval archaeological sites of that type in the wider area.
