FIVE BURIALS FROM PALAGRU？A

Sa？etak Archaeological excavations at the Salamandrija site on Palagru？a Island yielded five inhumation burials. They date from periods between Late Antiquity and the Modern Age. Most probably, they can be related to occasional, discontinuous, or sometimes perhaps more permanent occupation by people involved in specialized activities such as navigation, fishing, construction work and warfare. In most cases, we may be dealing with ad hoc disposal of human remains, rather than with formal burials. These burials complement what is already known about human presence on the island and open new questions about periods which previously have not been archaeologically attested on Palagru？a
