UP FHŠ has been successful in acquiring a new research project within the Call for Co-financing of the Slovenian part of bilateral or tripartite joint research projects Weave, co-funded by the Slovenian Research Agency (ARRS).
Assoc. prof. Martina Blečić Kavur, PhD is the leader of the Slovenian side of the funded project entitled Osor beyond the myth and from the Austrian partner Universität Wien, VIAS–Vienna Institute for Archaeological Science, is Nives Doneus, PhD.
The project addresses the question whether the maritime role of the city Osor (island Cres, Kvarner bay, Croatia), as indicated by trade goods, and thus the course of the long-distance maritime routes between the Alps and the Aegean can be supported by its landscape context. Osor and its land- and seascape context will be viewed holistically focusing on five topics: 1) History of contacts and trade, 2) Spatial expansion of the city and peripheral land use, 3) Terrestrial and underwater landscape context, 4) Maritime, strategic and/or military role of Osor and 5) the role of Northern Adriatic Islands in economic and cultural long-range trade networks. The driving factor in the project is a demand for a combined approach that can do justice to the archaeological, cultural, landscape and marine aspects of the site across the border between the land and the sea.

UP FHŠ has been successful in acquiring a new research project within the Public Call for Proposals for the co-funding of research projects under the complementary scheme for applications to European Research Council (ERC) calls, co-funded by the Slovenian Research Agency (ARRS).
Assoc. prof. Martina Blečić Kavur, PhD is the leader of the funded project entitled From Sea to Sea: Continuity and Changes between the Bronze and Iron Age on the territory between the Adriatic and the Pannonian plain. The project will focus on two major perspectives of archaeological research of the past - it will use modern analytical technologies to analyze the circulation of objects, raw materials and people. On an interpretive level, it will show the changes and continuity of settlement patterns, social practices, technologies and material culture between the 15th and 5th centuries BCE on the territory between the Adriatic and the Pannonian plain.
