U kontinentalnoj Hrvatskoj, pa i na širem hrvatskom prostoru, istraženost ranosrednjovjekovnih ruralnih sredina u početnim je stadijima. Taj je horizont loše očuvan, uvelike uništen suvremenom intenzivnom poljoprivrednom obradom zemljišta. Velik doprinos poznavanju oblika ranosrednjovjekovnih kuća dala su novija velika zaštitna istraživanja na trasama cesta. I ta su istraživanja potvrdila konstataciju o slaboj očuvanosti ranosrednjovjekovnog horizonta na prostoru sjeverne Hrvatske – svega je nekoliko objekata očuvano u tolikoj mjeri da im se može rekonstruirati način gradnje.
U radu se donosi prijedlog rekonstrukcije ranosrednjovjekovne kuće s lokaliteta Kiškorija jug kod Virovitice. Objekt pripada tipu poluukopanih jednoprostornih kuća s dva nosiva stupa i glinenom peći kružne ili ovalne osnove u uglu i datiran je u razdoblje od kraja 8. pa sve do kraja 9. stoljeća.The state of research on early mediaeval rural areas in continental Croatia, as well as elsewhere in Croatia, is only in the incipient stage. This horizon is poorly preserved and largely destroyed by modern intensive farming practices. Recent large-scale salvage investigations on motorway routes greatly contributed to the knowledge about the form of early mediaeval houses. These investigations corroborated the statement about the poor preservation of the early mediaeval horizon in northern Croatia – only a couple of structures were sufficiently preserved to allow a reconstruction of the method of their construction.
In this paper we put forward a reconstruction of an early mediaeval house from the Kiškorija jug site near Virovitica. The structure belongs to the type of semi-sunken single-room houses with two supporting posts and a clay stove of circular or oval plan in a corner. It is dated to the period between the end of the 8th and the end of the 9th century
