Summary/Abstract: The history of a time, the history of Bosnia is written as testimony, as a signpost, throughout the world, in the private collections of art collectors, in archives and museums, in renowned collections and little-known galleries, on parchment, on mediaeval stećak tombstones and in paintings. International instruments for the protection of exported cultural property and the institutions responsible for safeguarding it are our constant and our only companions on the way, as this property is discovered, identified, protected and presented. The table at the end of this paper provides an overview of the artifacts identified to date, with a brief description and date, along with the state where they are located. The collection and processing of the information on these artifacts is followed by the process of cataloguing them, with exact details of each work or art or artifact.
