The findings of the bird remains of the Vučedol Site

From several waste holes of the Vučedol site the skeletal bird remains have been collected. Athough the bony material is not rich (21 bones), five families with seven genera and seven species have been determined. The inhabitants of Vučedol hunted these bird species – Anser fabalis, Anser sp., Anas platyrhynconos, Aythya ferina and Grus grus, because of tasteful meat, and thus they supplied deficiency in their diet

VORGESCHICHTUCHE KNOCHENARTEFAKTE AVS DER HÖHLE VINDIJA (KROATIEN, JUGOSLAWIEN)

VORGESCHICHTUCHE KNOCHENARTEFAKTE AVS DER HÖHLE VINDIJA (KROATIEN, JUGOSLAWIEN) Over 40 pieces of bony artifacts from the Upper Pleistocene and Holocene strata of the Vindija Cave have been discovered. Bony artifacts from the stratum Gi-F^ have Lower Aurignacian (I) features, which was concluded on the basis of typological analysis. The artifacts from the stratum Fj,.-E, have Upper Aurignacian (II) features, and the artifacts from the stratum D belong to the Gravettian. Several bony points from the uppermost part of the stratum D, then from the stratum B, have typological characteristics of the Mesolithic, Neolithic and Eneolithic. The bony point with split basis from the stratum G, is from the Aurignacian I, and it is analogous to similar artifacts from Mokriška jama in Slovenia. Most of the bony points belong to the Aurignacian II (23 pieces), and they are completely analogous, by their typology and dimensions to the bony points from Potočka zijalka in Slovenia
