Sažetak
Two Glagolitic inscriptions were found on the roof tiles in Brul nearby Roč in 1999. After their transliteration, their meaning was analysed in comparison with the Latin inscriptions and symbols on tiles found on the roof, the function of which could have been apotropaic. The text of the inscriptions is connected with the names of the patron saints believed toward off different harms: St. Roch, St. George and St. Vitus. In accordance with the palaeographic analysis and comparison with the closest preserved Glagolitic monuments, their origin dates between the fi rst half of the 16th and early 17th century. However, due to substantial consistency of the Glagolitic script in Istria, the date of origin could as well be extended until the end of the 18th century.
