THE SACRAL ARCHITECTURE OF VINODOL DURING MIDDLE-AGES
RANKO STARAC
Sažetak
The aim of this work was to complement previously published informations on the number and conditions of majority of middle-aged churches found on the territory of Vinodol. Under respective consideration were also the closeness and sites of the antique and late antique finds and possible locations of early Christian worship places. We have further description of the historical vacuum interval between the 7th to 12th c, which is the time of a slow and unefficacious Christianization of this part of Croatia governed by Ban, which is proved also by a markedly pagan character of the old-Croatian grave-yards of that time. With the establishment of
Diocese of Krbava some time middle 12Ul c. began systematic process of the construction of churches. So, during the subsequent two centuries was completed construction of almost all today well known sacral objects. The rustic look and relatively modest constructive skill, deficient in high-quality works in moulding the stone sculptures, are characteristic for all the constructions of that time. In the second half of the 14lh c. started construction of Gothic style churches, which continued until early 16lh c. when, due to economic, political and safety crisis, result of Turkish raids and also because of the exchange of a part of population, general recession and cessation in the construction of churches took place.
