THE CHURCH OF ST. PETER IN STARIGRAD – PAKLENICA
RADOMIR JURIĆ
Sažetak
The author reports on the results of an investigation which was made during 1999 inside and around the church of St. Peter in Starigrad-Paklenica near Zadar (the first phase of investigation). In the investigation were established two phases of church construction: the middle and then late middle ages. Until now it has not been possible to confirm a pre-Romanic phase for which Don Ante Adžija, who was a priest in Starigrad, supported. This possibility has not been excluded. In the open digs 79 graves were noted amongst which 49 were completely investigated. The deceased (sometimes multiple) were placed into a hole in the soil or in wooden coffins or into graves with specific grave architecture and covered by thin or thick monolithic stone tablets. During the first investigation more than 200 different objects were found, which could be from the 13th to 19th century. The majority of these objects were jewels, money and rosaries but more often earrings and rings. Ten of them are outstanding due to quality of the material of which they are made and because of the craftsmanship involved. Amongst them are earrings known as karačice. Late middle aged silver money was found in and outside the graves and in two cases the money was placed in the mouth of deceased. There were also found some applicators for diadems. All this jewellery is from the period between 13th and 15th century. Osteological material has been collected and has to be analysed.
