Yugoslavian archaeology is not separable as a distinctive term, rather as a network of scholars among national groupings of the former Yugoslavia. Matching the political circumstances in which it developed, it emerged in two stages: the first was between WWI and WWII (1918-1941), when the organization and interconnection among archaeologists across the first Yugoslavia was tenuous at best; the second occurred within Socialist Yugoslavia (1945-1991), where a number of institutions and scholars were involved in the modernization process of archaeology.
Immediately following World War II, in conjunction with other historical sciences, archaeology was understood to be an aid to the process of the emancipation of the Yugoslav peoples. At this time, the ideology of brotherhood and unity was crucial and sought legitimization through past narrativization. One of the important fields therein was early medieval archaeology in association with medieval history, which sought to portray Souther...n Slavic or Yugoslavians as a homogeneous group.
This homogenization was based on the theories of Nikolay Yakovlevich Marr, which were present in the former Yugoslavia. His theories supported the implicit racial science on the Dinaric race, discourse of which was widely popular prior to WWII and which archaeology came to incorporate into the narrativization of the past. The key role such theories played in the construction of Yugoslav ethnogenesis was based on the interpretation of material culture and archaeology.
The aim of this paper, therefore, is to discuss controversial concepts in Yugoslavian archaeology, based on knowledge transfers among scholars in European networks that lead to outdated ethnic theories to be applied in Yugoslavian archaeology.
