Abstract
Špilja Veternica nalazište je srednjega paleolitika na jugozapadnome dijelu planine Medvednice u Hrvatskoj. Nalazište je od 1951. do 1955. i 1971. godine istraživano i u njemu su prikupljene stotine kamenih izrađevina mustjerske kulture. Ovaj rad donosi litičku analizu tih izrađevina i, usprkos pomiješanim nalazima iz više slojeva, važne podatke o tehnologiji, tipologiji i korištenju sirovina. Na temelju dobivenih rezultata i usporedbe s drugim nalazištima u susjednim prostorima, srednjopaleolitička industrija Veternica smještena je u kronološki i kulturni okvir.
Highlights
Veternica Cave is one of several Middle Paleolithic sites in northwestern Croatia which include Krapina, Vindija, and Velika pećina
The lithic analysis of the Middle Paleolithic artefacts from Veternica, despite the impossibility of separating finds according to stratigraphic units, showed great potential of the site in understanding the Middle Paleolithic in northwestern Croatia and neighbouring regions
The technology shows an adaptation of reduction methods to the used raw materials
Summary
Veternica Cave is one of several Middle Paleolithic sites in northwestern Croatia which include Krapina, Vindija, and Velika pećina. Despite the significance of the site for the study of the Middle Paleolithic in Central and Southeast Europe, and especially for the Middle Paleolithic in northwest Croatia, the majority of the lithic assemblage of Veternica has not been systematically studied and published. Analiza skupa nalaza bila je vezana za dva cilja, od kojih je primarni bio dobivanje što veće količine podataka zbog vjernije rekonstrukcije proizvodnje kamenih oruđa. Glavni cilj analize bio je na osnovi dobivenih podataka litičku industriju Veternice kronološki i kulturalno povezati s drugim nalazištima u sjeverozapadnoj Hrvatskoj i susjednim regijama. U tome smislu, revizija kamenih artefakata poslužila je i kao nadopuna slici srednjega paleolitika, odnosno mustjerske industrije na navedenome prostoru
