“This 2006 bilingual (Croation/English) cooperative exhibition catalogue from the Archaeological Museum in Zagreb (Croatia), the Museum of Dolenjsk in Novo Mesto (Slovenia), and the Croation Natural History Museum both explains the cultural significance of amber and glass and the similarities and differences of their use in two different areas of southern Europe (map) during the last millennium BCE. Both amber and glass were expensive, highly valued materials; they also indicate a trade network, especially with Baltic lands, and manufacturing. A valuable resource for many interests, excellent photography.

Granice japodskog područja su se mijenjale kroz stoljeća. Matično područje obuhvaća Liku i Ogulinsko-plaščansku udolinu i srednji tok rijeke Une. Japodska željeznodobna kultura obiluje jantarni nakitom raznovrsnih oblika, a najviše ga je nađeno u grobovima nekropole u Prozoru.”
