Sažetak
During the late phase of the Early Bronze Age, the Croatian Danube Region was characterised by two cultural phenomena: the early phase of the Vatin Culture and Transdanubian Encrusted Pottery. One of the characteristic sites is the settlement in Ilok, where early Vatin pottery and Encrusted Pottery finds were discovered in the same horizon and dated by radiocarbon analysis in the 19th and 18th century B.C. Regarding the Vatin Culture, there is the problem of its low dating in relative chronology established on the basis of bone artefacts discovered at Vatin Culture sites, which used to be attributed to the Mycenaean circle. Recent stratigraphic research backed by radiocarbon dating refute such low dating, and attribute these bone finds to a wider circle of cultures of the late phase of the Early Bronze Age in the Carpathian basin. Thus far, no evidence has been found to testify to the contacts between the Croatian Danube Region and the Aegean, but given the strategic position of that region on the communication corridor, such contacts cannot be ruled out.
