Abstract
The article presents the results of the archeological excavation of a cemetery with stećaks at the Krešić cemetery - Paoča, municipality of Čitluk. The analyzed archeological materials were obtained from excavating part of a necropolis containing four stećaks. The research is important because it supplements the existing scanty data obtained from archeological excavations and the scanty results of anthropological analyses of human osteological materials. The results of the bio-archeological analysis conducted on the human bone samples suggest that the inhabitants of the region had been exposed to heavy physical labor on a daily basis.
Keywords
