Lasinja culture, copper age

Sažetak
Lasinja, or Balaton-Lasinja is a well-known Copper age culture, which occupied parts of Central Europe at the end of the 5th millennia. Although it is usually considered that it developed from preceding Lengyel and Sopot cultures, some finds suggest it had a little help from the East. At what rate did this influence happen is still a question unanswered. It is indicated by several aspects of Lasinja culture that it might have been a part of a bigger complex. Similarities in the way pottery was shaped and decorated can be seen in a wide area of central and southeast Europe, in cultures such as Jordanów/Jordansmühl and Ludanice but even in Bodrogkeresztúr and Bubanj-Sălcuţa-Krivodol cultures, implying wide-range connections and interactions. At the same time, local differences can also be noticed. A detailed analysis of Lasinja culture in the central part of Croatia brought several new insights into this Copper age phenomenon. Large-scale excavations and calibrated radiocarbon dates have also helped to prove some „facts“ need to be reconsidered.
