The implementation of two research projects, one at the Liburnian settlement and necropolis of Nadin (Department of Archaeology at the University of Zadar, Department of Anthropology at the University of Maine) and the other at the necropolis of the Kopila settlement on the island of Korčula (Department of Archaeology at the University of Zadar, Center for Culture Vela Luka, and the Museum of Ancient Glass in Zadar), enabled the parallel inspection and comparison of numerous aspects of life of the two communities which developed in separate regional frameworks, in times of increasingly intensive prehistoric “global” connections. To illustrate this, the focus was put on two multiple-burial tombs, Tomb 105 from Nadin and Tomb 4 from the Kopila necropolis, which had approximately the same duration during the 2nd and 1st centuries BC
