Sažetak

In 2007, as in the previous years, the Institute of Archaeology in Zagreb continued systematic archaeological excavations of the settlements from the Late Bronze and Early Iron Ages in Nova Bukovica on the Senjak site in Podravina, south-east from Slatina. The excavations were continued on the same cadastre plot as in the previous years, on the southern slope of an elevation, east from the area on which in the previous years we found rectangular above-earth structures (5 in all) and a cattle pen, all from the La Tène period. In the course of explorations we discovered a number of new archaeological structures, among which the most numerous continue to be pillar holes. However, among the structures explored this year, of special importance is a pit dwelling of a simple, irregularly circular ground plan, with a trough-shaped bottom which deepens in the north-eastern part (Fig. 1). In its backfill we found characteristic material, among which there is a profiled, deep bowl decorated with vertical ribs and lines of warts on the widest part of the body (Fig. 2). The pit dwelling belongs to the Late Bronze Age and is the first such object explored on Sjenjak.
Likewise, this year we had finds of waste pits, especially those with finds of Late La Tène culture. These are larger, deeper pits with an abundance of finds (a whetstone, rustic pottery, highly profiled edges of vessels…). Among other finds, along with a lot of mostly rough, home use pottery, we should single out a renewed find of lumps of slag, stone masticator, ceramic whorls and one beautifully preserved bronze ring with closed ends reminding of a temporal ornament.
