Excavations at Kadar, Croatia 1976
(University of Kansas)
Excavations at the Eastern Gravettian (=Magdalenian) Upper Paleolithic site of Kadar were directed by Anta Montet White, University of Kansas, with Al Johnson (KU) and Duro Basler (Sarejevo Museum) as collaborators. The site is near the town of Donja Svilaj, on the border of Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina. This was my first field project (and first trip) outside the USA.
