Boško Marijan ; University of Zadar, Department of Archaeology

Abstract

The settlement elements of the site of Dubovo-Košno can be classified into two main groups in the general or functional sense. The first group encompasses original settlement structures, whether for dwelling, work, or auxiliary uses, while the other secondary group consists of structures created through exploitation of mineral raw materials within the area of the site. The group of primary settlement elements can be divided into four sub-groups: 1. settlement elements of general character (large settlement ditches), 2. ancillary settlement structures (remains of beam or post holes, short and deep ditches with regular plans, working or workshop pits), 3. below-ground dwelling structures (pit dwellings and sunken-floored huts), and 4. above-ground dwelling structures (houses of rectangular plan).
