Austrian prehistorians and ethnologists. A central theme of his archaeological research was cultural diffusionism, which played a significant role in ethnology, especially in interwar Vienna. This text's first part addresses Childe's contacts with archaeology in Vienna with a focus on his visits there to the Natural History Museum, which also took him to Znojmo and Moravské Budějovice in former Czechoslovakia. Childe's relations with Adolf Mahr, director of the National Museum in Dublin, and with Oswald Menghin, who occupied a key position in Austrian prehistoric research during the interwar period, are examined in detail. The second part highlights Childe's ethnological connections in Vienna. It focuses on the collaboration between Childe and Father Wilhelm Koppers, who in 1936 published an extensive work on the cultural-historical origins of Indo-Europeans to refute Nazi doctrine. The question of what influence the Vienna school of ethnology had on Childe's concept of diffusion is clarified. For this contribution, numerous correspondences from twelve archives were consulted, revealing new insights into the academic networks of these protagonists.

“…113 Weiter gibt es drei Fälle von aus anpassenden Fragmenten zusammengefügten Schleifsteinen (Schleifsteinteilen). 114 Alle diese Stücke wurden nach den erkennbaren Fundnummern nicht nur jeweils in der gleichen Grube, sondern in unmittelbarer Nähe voneinander gefunden. Hingegen zeigen die Fundnummern von einem aus drei Fragmenten zusammengesetzten Läufer von Langweiler 8, dass die Bruchstücke aus drei verschiedenen Stellen kommen.…”

“…However, some metallurgical remains and pieces of equipment have been found that can be compared with those of the late 5 th millennium BCE in the Kura Valley. 114 Individual pure copper objects such as the rod-shaped device (29242) from Pit 1 do not match the regional deposits, nor do the copper prills from crucible 27905. While the metal object thus provides no evidence for the local processing of copper ores, the crucible not only reveals local smelting took place, but also provides insight into the complexity of social and technical practices.…”

“…Mengin se smatra jednim od najvažnijih autora za promociju kulturno-istorijske arheologije, bez obzira što se ispostavilo da njegovi teorijski koncepti nisu izdržali kasnije kritike (cf. Kohl and Gollán 2002). Menginova karijera se razvijala upravo u periodu između dva rata, kada on publikuje svoje važno delo Weltgeschichte der Steinzeit (1931) u kome pokušava da primeni ideje kulturnih krugova (Kulturkreiselehre) potekle iz redova austrijskih etnografa na paleolitski materijal i napiše univerzalnu istoriju kamenog doba (Kohl and Gollán 2002, 562).…”

Archaeological Excavations of Adam Oršić: Fieldwork as a Source of Power and Authority

The period between the two world wars is extremely important for the history of Serbian and Yugoslav archaeology, because this is the time when the discipline was rapidly institutionalized – new museums are established, new professionals are trained, and large fieldwork projects are initiated. At that moment, as well as immediately after – during the World War II, European archaeology is to the great extent oriented towards the German professionals and institutions. In Germany and Austria institutionalization started earlier, by the beginning of the 20th century, so a great number of the Serbian and Yugoslav archaeologists was educated in the German centres – Marburg, Berlin, Munich, Vienna and other universities. Adam Oršić started working in archaeology in 1930s, self-taught and leaning primarily on the experience of older colleagues, rather than on formal education, which he did not possess at the time. However, he started fieldwork on the sites in Niš and the surrounding area, collecting a huge set of data, that remained in his private possession. It was this data collection and his vast fieldwork experience in southern Serbia that for Oršić opened the door of Ahnenerbe and heritage protection institutions during the occupation. As the result of the status he achieved at the time, he was sent to Oswald Menghin in Vienna, where he completed his dissertation in 1944. During the war, his insistence on fieldwork as the essential part of archaeological research became even more pronounced, leading to his suggestion to Ahnenerbe to organize an expedition in Serbia and Macedonia. The status acquired by his doctorate under the mentorship of Menghin, the leading praehistorian of Europe at the time, enabled Oršić to continue his archaeological work after the war, first as a refugee in Austria, and then as an immigrant to Brazil. Oršić considered fieldwork as the means through which archaeologists acquire exclusive knowledge. He himself used this knowledge throughout his career to strengthen his authority and to achieve esteem in the academic community. His vast experience and knowledge of the sites in Serbia contributed to the respect he enjoyed by the authorities during the war, set his educational path, and ultimately secured him the status he enjoyed in the settings he worked till the end of his life.
