Summary/Abstract: The paper presents one of the storage pits from the first phase of theBosut group settlement in Ilok that stood at the site of the Upper Town. The areaof the Upper Town of Ilok was continuously inhabited throughout the Bronzeand Iron Ages, with the most intense traces of habitation dating from the LateBronze Age and Early Iron Age. The eight-year rescue excavations of the Instituteof Archaeology in Zagreb explored the preserved buried structures from all thedevelopment stages of the Bosut group. The example of the storage pit with itsinventory testifies to possible different uses of such pits, which have often beenfound in other Bosut group settlements in Syrmia, southern Bačka, and Banat.
