History & geography

History

An early Croatian church of St. Michael was found in 1947-48 in the village of Brnaze at the Bunarska Glavica hill. The church with six apses was built in the 9th or 10th century, most likely on the foundations of a church from the early Christian, pre-Croatian period, in 5th or 6th century. The church was largely demolished in the 13th century. Fragments of church stone-furniture from the early Croatian period, part of an early Christian altar partition and several antique monuments were found scattered around. In and around the church tens of late medieval graves with offerings such as rings, earrings, spurs, and money were also found.
