Dugopolje Dance chest

The largest necropolis of Blidinje plateau Nature Reserve is located in Dugo polje. This necropolis as one of the most beautiful, richest and most interesting in general. The number and state of preservation of stećak tombstones, of which 150 have survived to this day, contributes to all this. 32 stećak tombstones, or five slabs, 22 chests and all the gabled roofs from the necropolis are decorated. The most interesting are certainly the figural depictions. Hunting scenes appear on five monuments, like on this one on one side. Kolo dance appears in two cases, and in this one it is an exclusively female one. Underneath them there is a lone figure of a deer. The northeastern frontal side of this chest is decorated with an unusual figural motif, two figures dressed in a long, traditional costume of local people, with their hands touching. Maybe depiction of the deceased who were buried here.
