Reviews

'This manuscript is an extremely important contribution to better understanding Tumulus culture and the ethnocultural relations between the Late Bronze Age communities in the Pannonian plain and in the central Balkans.' Dr Aleksandar Bulatovic, Insitute of Archaeology, Belgrade 'Considering the fact that the excavation took place several decades ago and parts of the documentation as well as some of the finds are not traceable, the author made a great effort to collect all the relevant information and to put all the puzzles together in order to reconstruct prehistoric burial contents at the site. The study . is a solid archaeological work with a significant value for the better understanding of the Middle Bronze Age in this part of the continent.' Mario Gavranovic, Institute for Oriental and European Archaeology - OREA 'Kapuran's work is the first monograph which presents the Velebit necropolis in detail and in all its aspects. . The contribution of the book is considerable because Velebit with its characteristics broadens our knowledge of the Tumulus culture and the Bronze Age in South Europe in general.' Rastko Vasic, Institute of Archaeology, Belgrade
