Summary: | Following more than seven decades of research on the Bronze Age cremation
burial grounds in the territory of Serbia, the new absolute dates provide us
with an opportunity to determine a more precise chronological sequence of
different local cultural manifestations. Although the pioneers of the
Serbian archaeology after WWII defined the main cultural trajectories that
led to the establishment of cremation as the main burial rite during the 2nd
millennium BC, several misconceptions were established that need to be
corrected, considering new data. We regard this paper as our contribution to
the better understanding of the cultural and chronological sequence in the
Central Balkans during the Bronze Age. |
