The aim of this course is to introduce students to the current state of research in medieval archaeology and history
of Croatia, within the broader context of central and southeastern Europe. Additionally, the course aims to explore methodological issues through various examples presented during lectures, focusing on the diversity between archaeological and historical sources. It will be examined how these sources complement and diverge from each other and how each contributes to understanding the historical development of specific regions. Croatian historical lands, situated at the crossroads of East and West, were influenced by various surrounding state formations. This influence is evident in both historical and archaeological records. Due to the distinct historical developments in different parts of present-day Croatia, the course will separately discuss northern Croatia, southern Croatia (Dalmatia), Dubrovnik, and Istria. The chronological scope will cover the period from the early 7th century, the settling of the Slavs and the period of the Avar Khaganate, through the period of the early Croatian state, to the high and late medieval periods when Croatian lands were part of the Kingdom of Hungary- Croatia. This course is designed for students interested in gaining insights into the medieval history of Croatia and the surrounding regions, as well as the corresponding archaeological structures and finds (settlements, fortifications, graveyards, churches, small finds etc.). Students will receive comprehensive insights into the material culture and practical guidance on locating related materials and publications. Moreover, this course is for students who wish to learn more about critical approach to both historical and archaeological sources in a multidisciplinary perspective.
