Sažetak
The Velebit Mountain spreads along the Adriatic sea between Senj in the North West and the Zrmanja river in the South East. Velebit is a Dinaric Mountain consisting mostly of carbonate rocks. Main characteristic of its sea slopes are scarce resources and aridity, which affected land use and settlement positions during prehistory. Although the Velebit Mt. is a very hard area to live in, people have made great efforts during the past to shape the landscape in order to survive. The karstic nature of the Velebit Mountain with its unique micro morphological traits, impedes prehistoric cultural landscape research and makes it difficult to detect and study the sites. In this talk we will present land use research methods in the difficult landscapes of the Velebit Mt., as well as new results.
