Abstract
The paper deals with the issue of Roman archaeological finds and assemblage in the Malá Haná region in the context of substantial strong Germanic settlement activities that had or may have had connections to the period of Marcomannic wars. During the last decade of research in particular on sites near Jevíčko town in was possible to gain a lot of knowledge on the issues of settlement of the Early Roman period. In addition to Roman imports, related to trade activities, a whole range of artifacts (especially militaria) can be associated with the movement of the Roman army deep in the Barbaricum or directly with the northernmost Roman temporary camp near Jevíčko. The Malá Haná region thus becomes an important research area for a detailed interpretation of Roman-Germanic interactions at the end of the reign of Emperor Marcus Aurelius.

It is clear that the burial ground represents a rare example of relatively short-time duration in the second half of the 2nd century, and, in comparison with other burial grounds from the Roman period in Moravia (Vachůtová – Vlach 2011), the Jevíčko site has a special position that can be synchronized with the Mar comannic wars or the time immediately related to the war events
Summary
The turning points of the war during the reign of Emperor Marcus Aurelius were discus sed in several places (especially Böhme 1975; Friesinger – Tejral – Stuppner eds. 1994; Kehne – Tejral 2001; Kovács 2008; Fischer 2009; Komoróczy 2009a; Rajtár 2014; Tejral 2017; Erdrich et al eds. 2020) for the key area of the Roman-Germanic conflict in the Middle Danube region, in antiquity called bellum Germanicum and bellum Marcomannicum and in modern literature called Marcomannic wars (Kehne 2016). 2020) for the key area of the Roman-Germanic conflict in the Middle Danube region, in antiquity called bellum Germanicum and bellum Marcomannicum and in modern literature called Marcomannic wars (Kehne 2016). A significant shift in research on Roman expansion into the Barbaricum north of the Danube river during 70s of the 2nd century was the discovery and subsequent research of Roman temporary camps in the territory of the Marcomanni and Quadi populations, i.e. in Lower Austria, Moravia and south-western Slovakia (Tejral 1999a; Groh – Sedlmayer 2015; Komoró czy – Vlach – Hüssen 2018; Rajtár – Ölvecky – Hüssen 2018; Komoróczy – Vlach 2019; Komoróczy et al 2019a; 2020). A part of historical Moravia), where the northernmost tempo rary Roman camp from the period of Marcomannic wars was discovered five years ago. The first discoveries were made at the beginning of the research of the Germanic cremation burial ground at the Jevíčko IV site (‘Pod Příčnou cestou’, for merly known as Jevíčko-Předměstí 6)
