This paper examines key issues concerning tumuli and the early medieval burial horizon, including the construction of new tumuli after the arrival of the Slavs on the eastern Adriatic, questions of grave orientation, and, in particular, tumuli that contain multiple early medieval burial horizons. It reviews the history of research and analysis of this site type, drawing on the most significant investigations conducted from the Second World War to the present.
