ANTE GLAVIČIĆ
Sažetak
The author describes two chapels of St. Vid, one situated on the outskirts of the city of Senj and the other on the hill Drvišica overlooking Karlobag. Their origin and titulars are being
explained in the context of a cult-tradition and religion of old Croats before they accepted Christianity, so that the worship of St. Vid can be brought in the connection with the pagan worshipping of Svanlovid.
Description of the church of St. Vid overlooking Karlobag has been accompanied by the description of Drvišica (Vidovgrad), where in the Iron Age was the centre of the community of Becos, during Roman Age there was a municipality of Vegium, in Middle Ages settlement and fortess Scrissa. At the end, the author makes a conclusion that area has been the most interesting in the district at the foot of a mountain range, either from the archeological or historical point of view, and therefore suggests its complex exploration.
