Abstract
In 2024, the Vinkovci Municipal Museum inaugurated a new publication series titled Avaria Musei Cibalensis, dedicated primarily to the Avar period. The scholarly monograph Tendrils, Lions and Griffins: Avar Period Warriors from Nuštar, by Anita Rapan Papeša, is the inaugural volume of this series. It provides a systematic analysis of the Avar-period cemetery at Nuštar, which was uncovered by chance during construction work in 2011. This work represents the first comprehensive study of an Avar period cemetery in Croatia. Beyond its multidisciplinary approach – one of the monograph’s principal merits – the interactive site plan available on the Vinkovci Municipal Museum website marks a significant advancement in the presentation and accessibility of data for the international research community.
