Žljebovi, Rančići – Sokolac

The Žljebovi necropolis is located in the village of Rančići, next to the Orthodox graveyard. It consists of 12 medieval tombstones, 8 of which are in the form of a chest, and 4 in the form of a gable.

The medieval tombstones are nicely processed, but without decorations or symbols, with the exception of one medieval tombstone hollowed out in the shape of a trough, which is assumed to have been used for watering cattle and was subsequently carved.

Some medieval tombstones are partially damaged, most likely due to their removal during the installation of a wire fence outside the area of the local Orthodox graveyard.
