Sažetak
In 1998 and 1999, the Croatian Archaeological Monuments Museum performed protective archaeological researches of the St. Mavar's Church in Žedno, island of Ciovo. The works were undertaken in collaboration with the State Departmentfor the Protection of National Heritage, that supervised the works of the church rebuilding. Excavations established that the earliest layers belonged to early-Roman period, P' century AD. This period is very well documented by a preserved water cistern and movable finds consisting of ceramics, coins and tombstone fragments. The second period are layers containing late-Roman materials: ceramics, coins, basic remains off arming structures. There follows a discontinuity of population during the early middle ages, whereas the upper layers belong to 12-1J1h century. Then, on remains of late classical structures, there was built the St. Mavar's Church, around which gradually developed the oldest parish graveyard of the village ofŽedno. When the Dominican monastery ofHoly Cross was founded at the Kaptela Bay coast} the graveyard was moved around the monasteric church. The last period make new-age layers} when around the St. Mavar's Church lived hermits who completely repaired the Roman water cistern and erected a smaller structure next to the church} where the lived} whereas the very church was significantly prolonged and rebuilt in the Baroque style.
