Abstract The chronology of the Bronze Age in the Carpathian basin is largely based on relative chronologies, i.e. stylistic analysis of ceramic (and other) materials. While the number of radiocarbon dates is generally increasing, certain important sites are still poorly dated. One of the largest necropolises from this period, i.e. Mokrin necropolis, which traditionally belongs to Maros culture, is dated only with 6 radiocarbon dates. Here we synthesize the previous 6 radiocarbon dates with 13 new radiocarbon dates, with two goals in mind: 1) to explore the absolute chronology of the site, specifically to determine its chronological limits; and 2) to test hypotheses about the spatio-temporal organization of the site. Our data show that the chronological limits of the necropolis were most probably between 2073 and 1822 BC. Concerning traditional relative chronologies, none of the previous hypotheses about the internal chronological development of the necropolis is supported by data. Our results suggest that all parts of the necropolis were used relatively simultaneously.
