Sažetak
The main goal of this study is reconstruction of everyday's life during the late phase of a Roman city of Cibalae, based on a study of pottery. Cibalae (today's town of Vinkovci) were situated in Slavonia region in the eastern part of Croatia, and it has been continuously inhabited for 8, 000 years. The cultural layer, at places 6 to 8 m thick, contains all chronological periods and prehistoric cultures. One of the most interesting archaeological layer dates back to Late Roman period (4th to 6th century AD). The aim of this study is to prove a continuity of pottery production at Cibalae, to examine the development of various types and shapes of vessels, and to observe changes in technology and typology of vessels dated at the end of 5th century. A special emphasis is put on those vessels, which have not been studied so far, nor typologically determined. Besides typical Roman provincial pottery forms, appears ceramic material that belongs to 5th and 6th century and can be linked to migrations of Germanic tribes in this area. Due to the insufficient exploration and interpretation of archaeological material, it is difficult to attribute ethnic elements to it, but one can discern a difference between a genuine local tradition and new elements among used pottery during 5th and 6th century on mentioned area. This primarily refers to decorating techniques: burnishing and stamping.
