Sažetak
The author discusses a group of jewellery items allegedly collected 1924- 1925 in Šenkovec near Čakovec in Međimurje (North Croatia). Anđela Horvat’s serious doubts regarding the authenticity of the location of this particular find have directed the author towards searching for the ubication of early mediaeval sites surrounding Donji Vidovec. Based on the analysis of movable finds held in safekeeping at the Museum of Međimurje in Čakovec and on comparative work, reliable information regarding the character of the cemetery that might be included into the Bijelo brdo cultural circle have been collected. The range of forms of jewellery and parts of clothes indicates to obvious contacts with the neighbouring Carinthian- Köttlach, old-Croatian, and old-Hungarian cultural circles, a well as to recognising relicts from the autochthonous formation circle. The author draws clear parallels to synchronous sites in Međimurje and in wider regions, in relation to which he established similarities among individual grave finds. By analysing sepulchral material, he managed to set the relative chronological frame of the cemetery used between the second half of the 10th century and the first third of the 11th century.
