Abstract
Located in the centre of the island of Dugi otok, the
Cave of Vlakno, having an interior surface of 40 m2,
made an ideal living space for small hunter-gatherer
communities during the Upper Palaeolithic and Early
Mesolithic. The trial excavations of the cave began
in 2004 and have reached a depth of 5 m so far, uncovering
cultural layers that date back 19,500 years in
relative continuity. Considering that the stratigraphic
sequence showed no evidence of hiatus and taking
the found tephra deposits as clear chronological and
stratigraphic markers, Vlakno makes an ideal site
for studying the Pleistocene-Holocene transition as
well as the response of the Epigravettian communities
inhabiting the eastern Adriatic coast to climate
and environmental changes. The patterns indicate a
gradual transition to Mesolithic culture profoundly
influenced by the Epigravettian tradition.
