[edit]

One Scordisci archaeological site in Privlaka dating back to late La Tène culture was excavated in the 1970s and 1980s as a part of rescue excavations in eastern Croatia.[3] Archaeological site was a part of the settlement network of Scordisci in the area of Vinkovci.[3]

In July 1943, during the World War II in Yugoslavia, Nazi forces destroyed agricultural machinery, including threshers, across several villages, including Privlaka.[4]
