A contribution to the knowledge of antique terracotta iconography in the province of Upper Moesia
2022 •
Bojana Plemić, Ljubisa Vasiljevic
This paper presents three accidental terracotta finds assumed to originate from the Kruševac surroundings. There is one plate with a relief depiction, known only from the National Museum in Kruševac documentation, and two finds from the antique archaeological collection from the National Museum in Kruševac – the bust of a figure in high relief and the head of a female figurine. According to the iconography characteristics of these smaller dimension objects, we see the possibility of their cult nature. Thus, the depiction on the plate with a nude male figure with the spear and shield is identified as an artistic presentation of the god Mars. Taking into account the shorter coiffure with signs of stylisation on the bust mentioned above, we assume that it presents a male figure, but due to the poor preservation, it is impossible to identify it. Finally, thanks to a typical melon (melonen) coiffure and accessory on the top of the head resembling a high raised diadem or krobylos, we have made a connection between the head of the figurine and female facial features of the iconography of the goddess Venus.

Application of archeometric techniques in the study of wall paintings on the example of fragments of frescoe paintings from the Church of St. Nicholas (Crkva Svetog Nikole) in Baljevac, Serbia

During the archaeological research of the Church of St. Nicholas, in Baljevac, Serbia, fragments of wall paintings were found in Pit no. 1, located in the nave area. The fragments were determined to be from the second phase of the construction of the church (13th century). Several fragments of different and pure tones were selected to examine the composition of the mortar and pigments, as well as the painting technique. Analytical techniques and the results obtained by their use during the examination of the selected fragments are presented in this paper. With a suitable selection of analytical techniques, all the pigments that had been used were identified, the chemical composition of the mortar determined and a parallel made with the materials analysed so far from wall paintings from similar periods. The importance of modern archaeometric tests in modern conservation-restoration practice is highlighted and guidelines for continuing research are presented.

The paper presents the basic research principles of the project THE FLOW (Interactions-Transmission-Transformation: Long-distance connections in the Copper and Bronze Age of the Central Balkans), which is carried by the Institute of Archaeology in Belgrade, the Institute of Nuclear Sciences “Vinča, and the Faculty of Philosophy, University of Belgrade. The theoretical and methodological perspectives of the project research engage an interdisciplinary approach based on analytical techniques incorporated within archaeology and natural sciences, such as physics and chemistry. The project‘s goal is to apply an exact method to the problems of the origin of raw materials for the production of four specific groups of objects made of obsidian, pottery, copper, and bronze. Each of those materials represents a unique problem and requires a specific treatment, presented within this paper, together with the existing practice, analytic techniques, and methodological procedures for the collected samples. Further, the project incorporates the collection of absolute dates through AMS and OSL dating, with the application of the latest OxCal 4.4. calibration. The acquired dates, combined with the disposition of samples and raw materials will serve as the backbone for the creation of spatio-temporal models and the formation of an SQL database, all with the goal of creating the interpretative basis for the study of local paleo-economies, long-distance connections, and social networks in the Central Balkans during the Copper and Bronze Age

MILENA PAVLOVIĆ BARILLI'S PICTORIAL POETICS AND VIMINACIUM LANDSCAPE
2019 •
Jelena Anđelković Grašar, Emilija Nikolić
Since the effects of a landscape go further than geography and beyond the timeline, this paper questions the possibility that the Viminacium landscape, the archaeological area near the Danube in Serbia, inspired the art of the internationally recognised painter and poet Milena Pavlović Barilli. One can try to trace the relationship between Viminacium and Milena’s art primarily in the motifs that are associated with Antiquity. Architectural elements, statues or human figures that resemble statues, as well as compositions that refer to the mythological patterns are an indicative part of Milena’s pictorial poetics. The greatest influence of ancient material and immaterial heritage on Milena’s art is visible in paintings and drawings from the 1930s. Keywords: Milena Pavlović Barilli, Antiquity, Viminacium, surrealism, landscape, painting, poetics.
