Keltski grobovi sa Rudina u Starom Kostolcu

Abstract

Tokom 1985, na levoj obali reke Mlave, na lokalitetu Rudine u Starom Kostolcu, otkrivena su četiri latenska groba. Grobni prilozi, kao i skeleti pokojnika u sva četiri groba, bili su oštećeni radom mehanizacije. Uprkos tome, na osnovu pojedinih grobnih priloga, pre svega fibula, bilo je moguće hronološki opredeliti ove grobove u početni period mlađeg gvozdenog doba. Prilično je izvesno da je keltska nekropola na Rudinama, zajedno sa srodnim nekropolama na obližnjim lokalitetima (Pećine, Repnjak, Čair), pripadala keltskoj populaciji, koja je nastanjivala ovaj prostor krajem IV i početkom III v. p. n. e. .

In 1985, on the left bank of the Mlava, at the Rudine site (fig. 1) in Stari Kostolac, four Late Iron Age graves (Graves 7-10) were discovered. The grave goods, as well as the skeletons from all four graves were severely damaged by machinery. Nonetheless, it was possible, based on some grave goods (figs. 2-3), mostly fibulas, to date the graves to the beginning of the Late Iron Age. It seems clear that the Celtic necropolis at Rudine, together with the other nearby sites (Pećine, Repnjak, Čair), belonged to the Celtic population that dwelt in this area at the end of 4th and the beginning of 3rd century B.C.
