Sažetak

Prehistoric stone artefacts made from gravel materials
have been found at various sites on several islands in central
Dalmatia. Th e pebble rind of these artefacts suggests
that the raw material is derived from outcrops of gravel or
other clastic sediments. Th e petrography of the artefacts,
the specifi c signs of abrasion on the surface and the topography
of regional and extra-regional outcrops of the relevant
rock, in correlation with the pertinent archaeological
sites, allow for several interpretations of the origin of the
raw materials as regionally applicable models. Using the
example of the archaeological sites on the island of Sušac,
we use a model for interpretation of the origin of the raw
materials applicable to fi nds from Gradina in Vis, Divjeni
Doci at Sućuraj on the island of Hvar and Rat at Ložišće
on the island of Brač
