"During the Late Bronze Age, the Iron Age and early medieval period (c. 600 BC-AD 1250) settlement at Vik in the Ørland peninsula emerged, flourished, vanished and emerged anew. Local landscape and vegetation development, cross-regional cultural developments and global climatic events were of great significance to the farmer-fisher communities at Vik throughout these periods. In this book, results from the 2014-2016 archaeological excavations at Ørland main air base have been refined and developed. The 13 papers deal with landscape, vegetation and environmental aspects related to the excavated settlement, as well as the spatial and social organization of the built environment. Building traditions, disposal practices, the form and representation of everyday objects, subsistence and landscape use are central to the discussions."

Today, detailed reports of travellers, traders and diplomats are interesting and often pleasurable sources for the conditions in Central Greece. This book shows how the landscapes of Phokis and Lokris changed in the medieval age and during the Ottoman regency. It also pictures how Greece changed from the time of the Kingdom to the present-days.

The different written and archaeological sources give a very heterogeneous picture of the social and religious structures in Eastern Middle Europe. Recent developments in modern archaeological and historical research have shown new approaches to the analysis of elites. In every society there is a leading minority, who cumulates both wealth and prestige and is characterized by an elevated social rank, reputation and acceptance. An external marker of these elites is especially the superregional transfer of certain items, but also of the culturally encoded value systems. The present study asks whether this notion of cultural transfer, developed in the context of modern history, can be applied as well to the study of mutual influences between the elites of medieval Western and Eastern Middle Europe. It also raises the question if this terminology is equally useful for the analysis of written and material sources, and to what extent it might open a new perspective on the rich but as yet often unexplored history of the lands east of the Elbe river.

Nakon pisanja o kulurno-historijskim spomenicima Korduna i Banije odlučio sam se za rad na obimnijoj temi, koja obuhvaća znatno veće područje. Knjiga koja je pred vama govori o kulturno- historijskim spomenicima zapadne Slavonije, kraja koji sam počeo istraživati još 2004. godine obilazeći spomenike oko Grubišnog Polja. U vrijeme svojeg rada u Spomen-području Jasenovac između 2003. i 2006. godine obišao sam spomenike u okolici Novske i Okučana, a nakon odluke da pišem o ovom području ciljano sam obilazio kulturno-historijske spomenike virovitičkog, pakračkog, slatinskog, daruvarskog i novogradiškog područja. Iznenađujuće je velik broj spomenika u ovom kraju. U katalogu, koji je glavni sadržaj ove knjige, nalazi se čak 536 lokaliteta. Obuhvaćeni su, kao i u prethodne dvije knjige, arheološki lokaliteti, srednjovjekovne utvrde, dvorci te pravoslavne i katoličke crkve. Kao ni u prethodnim dvjema knjigama nisam obrađivao antifašističke spomenike, koji bi svakako zaslužili posebnu publikaciju. Svjestan nedorečenosti i nekompletnosti prethodnih dviju knjiga, odlučio sam se potražiti pomoć prilikom pisanja ove nove knjige u lokalnim muzejima, konzervatorskim odjelima Ministarstva kulture i kod samih stanovnika zapadne Slavonije. Ovom prilikom se stoga posebno zahvaljujem na pomoći gospođi Kristini Zloušić iz Konzervatorskog odjela Ministarstva kulture u Zagrebu, gospodinu Žarku Španičeku u Konzervatorskom odjelu u Požegi, gospodinu Milanu Pezelju iz Konzervatorskog odjela u Bjelovaru, gospodinu Krešimiru Karlu iz Konzervatorskog odjela u Bjelovaru, gospođi Ivani Miletić iz Konzervatorskog odjela u Sisku, gospođi Željki Peroković iz Konzervatorskog odjela u Slavonskom Brodu, gospođi Dragici Šuvak iz Gradskog muzeja u Slatini, gospođi Silviji Salajić iz Gradskog muzeja u Virovitici, gospodinu Radi Bosancu iz Poljana, parohu gospodinu Luki Bosancu iz Daruvara, gospodinu Gojku Bosancu iz Brusnika, gospodinu Mladenu Kuliću iz Slatine, gospodinu Darku Derenju iz Lipika, gospođi Jeleni Hihlik iz muzeja u Pakracu, gospodinu Đorđu Mihoviloviću iz Nove Gradiške, gospodinu Slavku Čiči iz Slavonskog Broda, gospodinu dr. Đuri Zatezalu iz Karlovca, gospodinu Miroslavu Markovu iz Slavonskog Broda i brojnim drugim poznatim i nepoznatim Slavoncima koji su mi na mojim putovanjima pomagali da pronađem pojedine spomenike i da o njima doznam podatke.
