Sažetak
In this article is given a description of a house in the abandoned village of Marama in the Velebit Mountains. The author describes the family who built the house and the circumstances under which this happened. The house is a complex of dwellings with two wells which close the communal space facing Mrkvište. In the introduction the author talks about Professor Ante Glavičić's and the author’s common travels to Velebit when visited many settlements and houses. In the following text the author describes the position of Marama, the origin of its name, about the people who established it, its first inhabitants and their way of house building. There is also given a detailed description of 5 Mandekić houses. The first and second buildings were outhouses used as animal stalls. The third building was small (3.10 x 6.20) and was probably additional building functionally connected to the fourth house. The fourth and fifth buildings were homes. In the forth house lived Mirko Mandekić. This was a maisonette; the living room was on the first floor and below was a working area. The fifth house belonged to Mirko’s brother Ivo. Today this building is in very bad condition. It is difficult to find any traces of life today where 4 or 5 people used to live. In the front of the house is a stone table. On this table would be placed salt for the animals. The author noted the state of the building before electricity came to the small village. Electricity gives it a different view. At the end the author asks the question about the uses of these objects and gives us some suggestions.
