ГАЉЕНСКО ИЛИ ЈОВИЧИЋА ГРОБЉЕ
GALJENSKO OR JOVIČIĆ CEMETERY

Summary/Abstract: In many parts of Serbia old country cemeteries are the objects by which periods of time can be identified based on various influences that prevailed in the making and decorating of gravestones. Cemeteries which represent the ambiental entities in which traditional craftsmanship and stylistic determinations in decoration of tombstones are visible were no longer well maintained and therefore are subject to various forms of endangerment and destruction. There are six cemeteries in the village of Gojna Gora – Galjensko or Jovičić cemetery, Trnavsko, Lazović or Bojović, Babović and the youngest – Šumljansko or Kecović graveyard. Each one of these cemeteries has its specific character, but Jovičić or Galjensko cemetery is the most interesting. The subject of this work is its factography, formed as field documentation, on the basis of which the whole cemetery, as well as particular monuments, ornaments, inscriptions and measures, as well as records about the craftsmen who built them, form the system of protection of cultural heritage.
