Prihvaćeno/Accepted: 03.10. 2006. U radu se objavljuje žarni grob vinkovačke kulture otkriven prilikom zaštitnih istraživanja u Vinkovcima. Cjelovitost nalaza i dobra dokumentacija iskopavanja omogućuju njegovo postav- ljanje u širi kontekst istodobnih nalaza na slavonsko-srijemskom i transdanubijskom prostoru. Antropološka analiza osteoloških ostataka i 14C analiza ugljena iz žare omogućuju razmatranje pogrebnih običaja i apsolutne kronologije vinkovačke kulture. Ključne riječi: vinkovačka kultura, rano brončano doba, Karpatska kotlina, žarni grob, Vinkov- ci, radiokarbonsko datiranje, kronologija This work presents an urn grave of the Vinkovci Culture discovered during rescue excavations in Vinkovci. The integrity of the fi nds and good research documentation make it possible to position the site in a wider context of other fi nds dating from the same period in the area of Slavonia, Syrmia and Transdanubian region. The anthropological analysis of the osteological remains and radiocarbon dating of charcoal from the urn allow an interpretation of the burial customs and absolute chronology of the Vinkovci Culture.
