In the immediate vicinity of the medieval town of Klis near Olovo, nestled within a coniferous forest, lie three small, separate necropolises containing a total of 11 beautifully carved medieval tombstones. The first necropolis contains three medieval tombstones, the second contains four, and the third also holds four. These sites are separated from each other by a distance of a few hundred meters.
The medieval tombstones are mostly oriented in a northwest–southeast direction, although individual specimens have been displaced or overturned over time. They are well-crafted and carved into the shapes of gabled roofs, chests, and slabs, both with and without pedestals.
Decorative motifs were recorded only at the third necropolis, where a twisted band, a cross, and a spiral can be seen. Based on these features, it can be assumed that the necropolis dates back to the 14th–15th century.
It is interesting to note that Nada Miletić mentioned this location only superficially in the Archaeological Lexicon, noting the existence of several medieval tombstones without providing precise data regarding their exact number, arrangement, or typology. Such a description suggests the possibility that she did not visit the site directly, but instead relied on incomplete information gathered from secondary sources or oral accounts from local residents.
We owe special gratitude to our friends Akif and Kenan, who guided us to this interesting and insufficiently researched site.
