History & geography

History

One archaeological site in Orolik dating back to the Iron Age in Europe period was excavated in the 1970s and 1980s as a part of rescue excavations in eastern Croatia. This archaeological site was a settlement of the late La Tène culture settlement network of the Scordisci in the area of Vinkovci. During this period most of the population were Catholic Croats who remained in the village after the Treaty of Karlowitz. In 1866 there was 205 Orthodox and 106 Roman Catholic families in the village. In 1942, Lazar "Lazo" (Stojan) Kanurić (1888, Orolik – Jasenovac, 1942), a Serb civilian and JRZ politician, died in the Jasenovac concentration camp. On 19 December 1993 UNPROFOR peacekeeping forces were attacked by local Serb residents of the village.
