Presjedo, Cerska – Milići

At the Presjedo site, located on a wooded pass below the Udrč mountain, there is a beautiful necropolis with 54 medieval tombstones. They consist of 2 chests, 7 gables and 45 pillars.

The medieval tombstones are skilfully crafted, but today some of them are damaged and partially overgrown with dense forest vegetation. They are placed in a west-east direction, and seven pillars are adorned with rich ornamentation.

Among the decorative motifs, plant stylizations, crescents, crosses, rosettes, circular wreaths, a curved vine with bunches of grapes and the depiction of a hand stand out. The significant number of pillars with pronounced plastic ribs along the vertical sides are of particular interest.
