A Contribution to the Knowledge of Medieval Agricultural Implements and Other Country Tools According to Their Images on Standing Tombstones of Dalmatian Hinterland

Autor u radu u uvodnom dijelu govori o neutemeljenosti termina "stećak" što dokazuje u tri točke. Glavnina rada donosi pregled kamika koji na sebi imaju prikaze lemiša, motika, kosira, sjekira, čekića, kliješta i škara. Sva ratila i pribori tipološki su razvrstani i određeni, a uz to je dat i pregled srednjovjekovnog latinskog i hrvatskog nazivlja dotičnih predmeta iz zagorskog seljačkog života.The introductory part of the article focuses on the inappropriateness of the term stećak (standing tombstone), which has been elaborated in three points. According to the author, the original medieval expression kamik should be used instead. The largest part of the work is a survey of those standing tombstones that bear engraved images of plowshares, hoes, pruning knives, axes, hammers, pincers and shears. All the implements and tools are typologically classified and determined. Besides, the author gives an overview of Medieval Latin and Croatian expressions for these objects from country life of Dalmatian hinterland
