Sažetak

The future Koprivnica City Bypass, a part of the Podravina Expressway corridor, passes across fertile fields of this predominantly low land. The attractiveness of the area along the navigable Drava River which enabled communication is verified by the abundance of archaeological finds pointing to the continuity of life in this region from prehistory until the Late Middle Ages, as shown by multilayered sites such as Cerine. In July 2009 the Institute of Archaeology conducted a field survey of the Koprivnica bypass construction area, i.e. of the 19 km long section between the highway interchanges at Rasinja and Koprivnica, in order to identify sites jeopardized by future works. 28 sites were identified, the majority of which have not been registered yet. At only three locations, the found material can be dated in the prehistoric period – one site in classical antiquity, and the remaining sites are dated in the Middle Ages and the modern age.
