Sažetak
This poster outlines the architectural transformations of the Pre-Romanesque / Romanesque church of St. Stephen in Dubrovnik and its cemetery over time. The excavations were carried out in 2011 and 2012, and they included the area inside the church walls, as well as a segment of the cemetery along the northern side of the church. We were able to identify several phases of various functiones of the church. The Pre-Romanesque and Romanesque periods have been documented as the most important phases of the church with its joined graveyards. Mention of the church by Byzantine emperor Constantine VII Porphyrogennetos in the mid-10th century in De administrando imperio also emphasizes the importance of the church during this time period. The church continued to be in use during the Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque periods, but it was less significant during these times. The church was abandoned after its collapse in 1667 Dubrovnik Earthquake, although the ruins of the church were later used for different purposes. Radiocarbon dating of the graves gave results from 806 to 1286 AD, but grave goods were also found that point to the post-medieval period. The graves were made using various construction methods (walled graves with plaster, graves improvised of stone constructions, burials without constructions). The site is currently in the process of restoration, and it will be converted into an archaeological park with a lapidarium.
