Pit structures, their spatial distribution and significance in the organization of Vučedol culture settlements on the example of the Vučedol-Kukuruzište Streim site

Vučedolska kultura možda je najpoznatija arheološka kultura tj. kasnoeneolitička pojava u Hrvatskoj, a lokalitet Vučedol jedan je od najduže sustavno istraživanih lokaliteta. Lokalitet Vučedol poznat je po svojoj vrlo „specifičnoj“ stratigrafiji i dobro sačuvanoj arhitekturi. Jedan od tipičnih arhitektonskih oblika na lokalitetu o kojem se u morfološkom i tipološkom smislu vrlo malo pisalo ili se samo okvirno spominjalo jesu jame tj. jamski objekti. Jame mogu označavati brojne stvari od prirodnih depresija do anatomskih elemenata, no ovdje je riječ o udubinama u zemlji koje su ljudi ciljano kopali. Diplomski rad prolazi kroz sve dostupne podatke o istraženim jamama na lokalitetu Vučedol- Kukuruzište Streim u periodu od 2012. do 2021. godine, te je uz pomoć njih napravljena tipologija jama vučedolske kulture na spomenutom lokalitetu podijeljena u 3 tipa (A-C) koja može dati uvid u neke „aktivnosti˝ naselja, prostorni raspored i ponuditi rješenja za moguće funkcije jama.Vučedol culture is one of the most famous archaeological (late eneolithical) cultures in Croatia and Vučedol is one of the longest systematically researched sites. Vučedol is famous for its specific stratigraphy and well preserved architecture. One of the typical architectural forms found on site, that has only been tentatively mentioned and scarcely described in morphological and typological terms are pits ie pit structures. The term ''pit'' can signify many things from geological depressions to elements of various anatomies, but these are deliberately made holes in ground by people. Thesis goes through all available data about researched pits on the site ''Vučedol- Kukuruzište Streim'' in 2012.-2021. period, and based on that data pit typology was made for the forementioned site that was divided into 3 types (A-C) and can give insight into ''activities" of the settlement, spatial layout and offer solutions for possible functions of the pit
