Loštice goblets in Medieval Slavonia as a symbol of high social status

The Loštice goblets, goods primarily intended to a circle of high feudal lords, originating from North Moravian workshops at the end of the Late Middle Ages were used in the castles all over the Central Europe. Their distribution in the area of medieval Slavonia has not been considered so far in the professional literature. However, archaeological excavations (and one historical record) confirm their presence at six Slavonian castles and one rural settlement. The local and foreign imitations of Loštice goblets have also been found at several Slavonian sites. These new data open up possibilities of further reflections on late medieval trade and the fashion practiced by the Central European medieval elite.
