U petak smo s velikim veseljem obilježili Europske dane arheologije kroz besplatnu edukativnu radionicu za djecu.

Naši mali sudionici istraživali su svijet arheologije i podvodne baštine kroz igru, potragu za skrivenim predmetima, upoznavanje ronilačke opreme, kreativno crtanje te sastavljanje amfore poput pravih konzervatora.

Uz puno smijeha, znatiželje i novih otkrića, zajedno smo proveli prekrasno poslijepodne.
Posebno nas raduje što su djeca kući ponijela nova znanja, lijepe uspomene i osmijehe na licima. 😊

💙 Hvala svim prijavljenim sudionicima i njihovim roditeljima na dolasku, interesu i izvrsnoj atmosferi.

Veselimo se novim susretima, druženjima i zajedničkom otkrivanju bogatog svijeta podvodne kulturne baštine!

On 10 June 2026, the Aquincum Museum in Budapest opens an exhibition presenting the results of Croatian–Hungarian cooperation and research into a 5th-century Late Antique shipwreck discovered at Veliki Piruzi in the Rovinj archipelago.

The exhibition showcases amphorae, ceramic vessels, ship components, and other remarkable finds that reveal trade connections between the northern Adriatic and Aquincum, the capital of Roman Pannonia Inferior.

The Croatian contribution is presented by the International Centre for Underwater Archaeology in Zadar in collaboration with the Bavarian Society for Underwater Archaeology (BGfU).

DAY 3 – 16 April 2026
Europa Postmediaevalis
Ceramics as Evidence: Contemporary Approaches to Interpreting Post-Medieval Finds
The final day of the conference, held at the University of Zadar, is dedicated to contemporary approaches to interpreting post-medieval ceramics as an important archaeological source.

Within the theme “Evolution of the Pottery: How Have Approaches to Post-Medieval Ceramics Changed Over Time?”, participants will discuss the development of research methods – from traditional typological analysis and written sources to interdisciplinary approaches involving archaeometry, organic residue analysis, and laboratory testing of materials.
Special emphasis is placed on ceramic finds as valuable evidence for understanding trade networks, social practices, and everyday life in the early modern period.

The conference concludes with closing remarks and a guided tour of Zadar’s historic city centre, symbolically linking scientific research with the rich cultural heritage of the host city.
