Abstract
Several authors wrote about the remains of the early medieval church in Petar Zoranić Square, associated with the Church of St. Peter of the Windlass, known from the archives. This paper consolidates the published and unpublished Late Antiquity and early medieval stone monuments found in the church and its vicinity. The fragments discussed here are compared with wellknown identical monuments; the paper indicates that part of the stone furnishings and architectural decorations in the Church of St. Peter of the Windlass can be connected with the furnishings made by the Zadar Cathedral Chancel Panel Workshop in the late 8th and early 9th centuries. The paper also addresses the problem of dating of the sarcophagus of Georgius the Recluse and possible links between this church and the new structures built in Zadar by Bishop Donatus in the late 8th and early 9th centuries.
