Summary/Abstract: Ciborium from the Cathedral of Kotor was dated in 1362,based on data from Daniele Farlanti in nineteenth century, transcribing anancient, today non-existent document. From nineteenth century until today,the only major research was done by Jovanka Maksimović. She was guided by Farlanti’s text and stylistic analysis of stone sculptures and concluded that 1362 is the year of the creation of the ciborium. Considering that Farlanti in his text did not mention the word ‘ciborium’ but only altar, which was consecrated 1362., and making comparisons with carved stone from Puglia and Dalmatia from thirteenth century, I came to the conclusion that the creation Kotor ciborium may be placed in the second half of the thirteenth century
