Abstract

In the site of Gamzigrad - Felix Romuliana 31 crossbow fibulae (Zwiebelknopffibeln) were found. Except the finds from large Roman necropolis, the crossbow fibulae from Gamzigrad compose a large collection from one site in Serbia. The most of them were found in the exactly stratified archaeological units of two horizons of life in Romuliana from the beginning of 4th to the middle of 5th century. Two kinds of analysis of the crossbow fibulae from Romuliana were made: morphological - typological and statigraphical - chronological. Conclusions about the function and production of the crossbow fibulae have been made according the results of these analysis.
