Résumé En Hr

At the site of Zambratija Bay in the northern Adriatic Sea, underwater archaeologists recorded over 120 wooden piles and material culture from a Late Neolithic to early Bronze Age submerged settlement at a depth of three metres under water. Situated in a sunken karstic depression off the Croatian coast, the seabed was partly covered with a well-preserved peat bed. Archaeological material included typologically identifiable ceramic and stone tool artefacts. This article presents original results derived from a 2017 targeted archaeological and dendrochronological assessment of the site and reviews the archaeological findings in their wider regional context. Results include a wiggle-matched 62- year floating dendrochronological sequence of the found prehistoric architecture dating the site to 4041-3934 cal BC (95.4% probability). Combined with evidence on other prehistoric piledwellings in Croatia, the results from Zambratija Bay suggest a need to revise the geographical expansion of the European Prehistoric Pile Dwellings phenomenon, which has been a topic of debate in European archaeology since the 19th century.

Na dubini od tri metra u sjevernojadranskoj uvali Zambratija podvodni su arheolozi zabilježili postojanje više od 120 drvenih pilota i ostale nalaze koji potječu iz potopljenog naselja, datiranog u razdoblje kasnog neolitika do ranog brončanog doba. Radi se o dobro očuvanom tresetištu koje pokriva dio morskog dna u potopljenoj kraškoj vrtači. Od arheoloških nalaza pronađene su tipološki odrediva keramika i kamene alatke. Ovaj rad predstavlja izvorne rezultate ciljane arheološke i dendrokronološke procjene nalazišta iz 2017. te daje pregled arheoloških nalaza u njihovu širem regionalnom kontekstu. Rezultati uključuju 62-godišnju plivajuću dendrokronološku sekvencu usklađenu metodom wiggle-matching, koja datira pronađenu prapovijesnu arhitekturu na lokalitetu između 4041. i 3934. godine pr. Kr. (s vjerojatnošću od 95,4%). U kombinacijis dokazima o drugim prapovijesnim sojenicama u Hrvatskoj, rezultati iz uvale Zambratija sugeriraju potrebu za revizijom zemljopisnog širenja fenomena europskih prapovijesnih sojenica, što je predmet rasprave u europskoj arheologiji od 19. stoljeća.
