Prilog problematici licenske keramike u sjevernoj Jugoslaviji by Nives Majnarić Pandžić

“…Nous sommes conscients que nos réflexions sur la place chronologique de la céramique transdanubienne incrustée de Podgorač ne reposent pas sur une quantité sufisante de matériaux archéologiques publiés et documentés, ce qui est certes la condition fondamentale pour les déterminations chronologiques, mais nos possibilités actuelles ne nous permettent pas de discuter d’une manière critique le complexe des théories des collègues hongrois sur les quest.ons chronologiques de l’âge du bronze en Pannonie.32 Podgorač représente pour le moment les localités les plus occidentales de la céramique transdanubienne incrustée en Slavonie, car, hors la Baranja, elle est connue seulement au voisinage immédiat du Danube, et ce n’est qu’au Srem qu’elle descend au sud-ouest jusqu’à la Save.33 Les outils de pierre des deux fosses sont présentés au tableau 15. …”

Časovna opredelitev čolničastih fibul iz Šmarjete by Vida Stare

“…Les caractéristiques de la période de Ha C avancée sont englobées aussi dans la fibule à trois pointes d’une variante plus ancienne, puis dans la fibule en forme de voile, dans deux fibules à bandes réticulées et aussi avec les autres matériaux qui s’associent à l’exemplaire de la variante classique du type de Šmarjeta et encore un dérivé plus ancien de ce type.71 Un ensemble tombal très important pour l’établissement de l’origine temporelle est la tombe féminine de Malence à parure dorée qu’il faut placer au début même de l’horizon Ha D, mais les types des fibules naviculaires sont certainement plus anciens.74"82 La limite temporelle inférieure, la plus récente, des fibules naviculaires du type de Šmarjeta est momentanément documenté par la tombe 22 du tumulus 13 de Brezje près de Mirna peč qu’à cause de la forme évoluée de la fibule serpentine, qui était aussi dans cette tombe, nous devons ranger dans la première moitié de l’horizon Ha D.83 Nous avons suivi de sijgrandes fibules naviculaires au pied long profilé, comme le sont les fibules naviculaires classiques de Šmarjeta, dans les limites plus larges des Préalpes du sud-est et les régions voisines, dans les tombes féminines, comme un des objets d’utilisation pratique les plus caractéristiques. …”
