Abstract

Rad se bavi karolinškim mačevima posebnog tipa 1 te tipova H i K pronađenima na prostoru Skandinavije, Hrvatske i Bosne i Hercegovine, što su ujedno jedini karolinški tipovi pronađeni na svim navedenim područjima. Mačevi iz Hrvatske te Bosne i Hercegovine kataloški su obrađeni, što nažalost, za mačeve iz skandinavskih zemalja zbog njihove brojnosti nije bilo moguće učiniti. S tog su područja prikazani oni primjerci koji su slični hrvatskima te su, ondje gdje je to bilo moguće, i uspoređeni. U radu su obrađeni i natpisi koji se pojavljuju na balčacima i sječivima ovih mačeva, od kojih je najznačajnija signatura ULFBERHT. Predstavljene su razne teorije o mogućem podrijetlu karolinških mačeva i o načinima na koje su stigli na prostor Hrvatske i Skandinavije te je objašnjena uloga koju su ovi mačevi imali kao statusni simboli u ranosrednjovjekovnom društvu.

Abstract (english)

The thesis deals with Carolingian swords of special type 1 and types H and K found in Scandinavia, Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina, which are also the only Carolingian types found in all mentioned areas. Swords from Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina are catalogued, which unfortunately was not possible for swords from Scandinavian countries, due to their large number. From that area, the specimens which are similar to Croatian ones are presented and, where possible, compared. The thesis also deals with inscriptions that appear on hilts and blades of these swords, with ULFBERHT being the most significant. Various theories about the possible origin of Carolingian swords and the ways in which they arrived in Croatia and Scandinavia are presented, and the role these swords played as status symbols in early medieval society is explained.
