A Late Bronze Age Settlement Podgajac – Glogovica near Slavonski Brod

Zaštitnim istraživanjima na trasi magistralnog plinovoda Slobodnica–Donji Miholjac tijekom 2009. i 2010. godine istražen je segment kasnobrončanodobnog naselja na lokalitetu Podgajac–Glogovica. Osim kasnoga brončanog doba na lokalitetu su zastupljene i strukture iz razdoblja eneolitika, mlađega željeznog doba i kasnoga srednjeg vijeka. U ovom radu obrađeni su nalazi i strukture iz kasnoga brončanog doba. Otkriveni naseobinski elementi uključuju dva jarka, nadzemni objekt te više otpadnih jama. Osim uobičajenih nalaza specifičnih za ovo razdoblje (ulomci keramičkih posuda, metalni predmeti) otkrivena je veća količina nalaza ulomaka kalupa za lijevanje metalnih predmeta. Prema tipološko-kronološkim osobinama nalaza, lokalitet se može datirati u stariju fazu kasnoga brončanog doba (Br D–Ha A).A segment of a Late Bronze Age settlement was researched at Podgajac–Glogovica site during 2009–2010 as part of a rescue excavation project on the Slobodnica–Donji Miholjac pipeline. Features dating from various periods beside the Late Bronze Age were recorded at the site, namely the Eneolithic, Late Iron Age and Late Middle Ages. Finds and features dating from the Late Bronze Age are elaborated in this paper. The settlement features include: two ditches, a surface structure and several refuse pits. The finds that were discovered during the excavations are common for this type of site (fragments of pottery vessels, metal objects). In addition to the more common finds, a large collection of casting moulds for bronze objects was discovered at the site. The late Bronze Age phase of the site can be dated to the earlier phase of The Late Bronze Age (Br D–Ha A) based on typo–chronological characteristics of recovered finds
