Since 1995 these efforts have been coordinated by the Institute of Archaeology of the ZRC SAZU. Systematic excavations and interdisciplinary[aut]Interdisciplinary research were carried out on prehistoric pile-dwelling[aut]Pile-dwelling sites, and dendrochronology was introduced as a basic method for determining the time frame of their existence.
