Numerous jewellery finds, mostly from necropolises, are proof of the wealth of the
citizens of Viminacium. We will note here only some of the examples from the latest
archaeological excavations from the eastern necropolises of Viminacium: “Pirivoj”,
“Nad Klepečkom”, and “Kod Koraba.” For the production of jewellery various materials
are used: metals, precious stones, glass and rare materials such as jet and
amber. The city’s location on an important military, strategic and also merchant
crossroads enabled its citizens the import of luxurious raw materials and goods from
both East and West. Besides this, the majority of jewellery is locally manufactured
by both local and foreign masters.
