We Visited the Raškovnica Necropolis of Medieval Tombstones in the Village of Dolovi Near Olovo

The Foundation team, consisting of Feđa, Nedžada, and Emir, visited the Raškovnica necropolis of medieval tombstones in the village of Dolovi near Olovo. The site is located on an Illyrian tumulus and contains 44 medieval tombstones in the shape of chests and gabled roofs, arranged in a circle around the burial mound.

Unfortunately, the site is overgrown with vegetation and has sunk into the ground, with most of the medieval tombstones covered in moss and severely neglected. They are oriented in north–south and east–west directions.

The necropolis was first recorded by Dr. Ibrahim Pašić, who mentions in his book that a large solitary nišan (early Ottoman tombstone) is located nearby in the form of a stele with a two-sided top and a depiction of an Ottoman saber, but we did not see it.

About 200 meters away, there are two more medieval tombstones at the Kurjača site. These were first recorded by Dr. Edin Bujak.
