NEW FINDS OF THE OLD CROATIAN STONE PLEATER SUPPLEMENTS TO THE SACRAL ARCHITECTURE EXPLORATIONS AT SENJ
ANTE GLAVIČIĆ
Abstract
Based on the archaeological explorations, historical sources and literature, the author here describes an outset and development of Christianity on Senian territory, the institution of Senian diocese and the construction of churches. The author also interpretes the first written news of the Middle Ages Senj, its development in an important socio-political and economic centre, which gave rise to the development of either profane or sacral architecture. He mentions also new stone pleater finds and speaks about further explorations of sacral architecture on the Senian territory and its outskirts.
