Prehistoric settlement Brdašce in Laktaši

Summary/Abstract: The paper deals with archaeological material collected during the archaeological excavations from 1960 on the site of Brdašce, in Laktaši, near Banja Luka, northwestern Bosnia. This prehistoric settlement was located on the plateau, placed on the lower hill with approximate height of 7m, which dominates the surrounding lowland area along the left bank of the Vrbas river. In addition to the characteristic topographic location, position was convenient for the settlement because of the thermal water springs in the foothills and it was probably used during the prehistoric period. The archaeological material, presented thorough this comprehensive analysis of ceramic forms especially, as well as the remains of architecture and animal bone materials and tools noted the unity of almost all cultural layers (layers recorded with numbers of I-XIII). There were recorded also two construction phases. At the bottom of the excavated area, next to the sterile layer (layer XII-XIII), were found flints, their deductions and flint tools belonging to another cultural layer, from completely different period in relation to described and dated site on a hill.
