Sažetak
The objective of this paper is to provide initial evidence of the pre-Christian, in particular early Slavic stratum of the cultural landscape in the Zagreb Prigorje (Cismontana) area. Following upon the research of Croatian linguists (R. Katičić) and cultural anthropologists (V. Belaj) the authors propose several sites, and structured associations thereof, which, in their opinion, played an important role as the foundations to the cultural landscape of Zagreb and the Zagreb Prigorje area, as we can at least partly reconstruct it today. These sites, located along the line St. Jakob-Medvedgrad-St.Marko, within the Remete “hoof, ” along the line the Rog-the Stari Kip-Gradec (Zagreb), and those linked to St. Barbara are just initial examples of what might be achieved by a systematic continuous research. The paper also discusses methodology involved in studying cultural landscape, its significance for the history of the visual arts, and the importance for contemporary interventions in our environment.
