Copper Age or Eneolithic

Copper Age or Eneolithic

Characteristic for the Copper Age, i.e. Eneolithic (4th – 3rd millennium B.C.), is the first metallurgic activity, the production of copper. At the same time this was the era of great ethnic turmoil in which the old cultures of the Neolithic kept disappearing or, like the Lasinja Culture, were gradually transformed.

With the arrival of the new Baden Culture other new cultures emerged, among them the Kostolac Culture and the most attractive among them, the Vučedol Culture. All of them are represented by different material, particularly by ceramics of heterogeneous shapes. The majority of space is dedicated to the Vučedol Culture, specifically to the findings from the Vučedol finding places of Gradac and Sarvaš.
