Pupićina Cave Pottery and the Neolithic Sequence in Northeastern Adriatic

In the first part of this paper, we present results of pottery analyses from Pupićina cave. Substantial Neolithic and Bronze Age pottery assemblages were recovered from this stratified prehistoric site in northeastern Istria (Croatia) during our excavations in 1995-1998. Departing from this new information and drawing on reports from other contemporaneous sites in the region, we address the issue of Neolithic pottery sequence for Istria and Trieste Karst. We discuss the main characteristics of Neolithic pottery styles, their geographic distribution and their absolute dating.
