Sažetak
During archaeological rescue excavations conducted at the AN COKP ČEPIN site on a section of the VC corridor, Đakovo-Osijek route, on a mild elevation south-west of Čepin (Fig. 1), the remains of a medieval lowland settlement were examined with sunken pits, channels, ditches and pillars. The minor number of finds probably belongs to a Lasinja culture settlement. The large excavated surface of the site made it possible to identify the infrastructure of the medieval settlement, in which sunken channels used to close the central surface with the remains of structures that testify to a settlement that probably had a familial structure, with groups of structures distributed in smaller units (Fig. 2). The largest number of archaeological finds consists of pottery fragments, followed by house daub, while only a smaller number of metal and stone artefacts could be excavated. Among the functional forms of pottery, various types of pots with an S-profile and decorative wavy and horizontal lines were identified, dating the settlement in the period from the ninth to eleventh centuries (Fig. 5).
