Medieval system of hollow stone measures in Istria, the Croatian Littoral and Continental Croatia
Sena Sekulić-Gvozdanović
Sažetak
Through the study of mensurae antiquae Croaticae and the many traditional names of old Croatian measures, the author proves that old domestic measurement systems were used for centuries in Croatia, and that they preserved their special features in spite of centuries of denationalization. This contribution presents rare preserved kamenice (hollow stone measures) in Istria and Croatian Littoral, through Lika, to the one recently discovered in Medvedgrad, unique in continental Croatia.
