Sažetak
In October 2020, the Institute of Archaeology and the Šibenik City Museum continued the excavation of the site of Mukoše near Goriš that was discontinued in 2002. The site, previously considered to be a tumulus around 35 m in diameter and 4 meters in height, conceals several meters high remains of a structure under the collapsed material, time of origin or the original function of which are still not known. The base of the structure consists of a rectangle around 18.70 x 19.25 m, with two smaller apses on one side and one larger apse on all the other sides. The inner walls of the structure can also be noted. After the structure had already collapsed, multiple graves were buried in the collapsed portion, probably at the beginning of the early modern period. The main goal of this year’s short excavation was to clear out the dense vegetation that had grown on it, gain insight into the floor plan of the structure, to the extent it was possible to do so, excavate visible graves, and document the findings in drawing and photos.
