Sotin, Settlement near Danube River in Vukovar-Srijem County, Croatia.

Sotin stands on the edge of a loess plateau at Popino Brdo, overlooking the Danube River with traditional agricultural lands surrounding the community.

The area was established as the Roman fort Cornacum in the 1st century, serving as a strategic military post and customs station along the Danube frontier.

Archaeological excavations in Sotin revealed artifacts from multiple civilizations, including the Pannonian Kornakata tribe and late La Tène culture settlements.

The settlement maintains a population of 597 residents as of 2021, with local infrastructure connected to the nearby administrative center of Vukovar.

Two Roman-era camps were connected by an ancient road, with archaeological evidence showing a double ditch system featuring a distinctive V-shaped profile.
