Sažetak
Early prehistory, primarily the Paleaolithic periods in the Veli Rat area have been known in the scholarly literature for over 50 years, and each new research broadens the existing knowledge. The aim of the last field survey was primarily to determine if there are any new sites and to document the existing ones that were not properly documented. Ten large spatial zones have been surveyed, yielding six previously unknown positions with the Paleolithic artifacts. Primarily lithic finds correspond well to the previous insights. Most of the recovered objects exhibit characteristics of the Mousterian culture, while a smaller part might belong to younger periods judging from the typological and technological characteristics. Discovered sites are studied not only within previous research of Veli rat but also within wider region of Zadar, from Velebit to the islands of Zadar where over 30 sites with Palaeolithic finds have been pinpointed.
