The Collapse and Integration into the Empire: Carolingian-Age Lower Pannonia in the Material Record

In the last fifteen years, a small but significant step forward has been taken in the research of Carolingian-age Lower Pannonia (Pannonia inferior), which corresponds chiefly to modern northern Croatia).Substantial progress has been made not only in regards to the archaeological research, which is now more robust than before, but also in relation to the way the new finds are interpreted. This is especially true when one compares more recent interpretations to the approach taken in previous decades, when this part of the Republic of Croatia was systematically neglected in favour of other parts of Croatia and the neighbouring countries. Northern Croatia is situated approximately between sites with rich early medieval ‘old-Croat’ finds in Dalmatia and the very well researched areas of Hungary and Slovenia.
