Our Lady of Health in Oriovica

Tijekom dvije istraživačke kampanje (1996. i 2000. godine) oko crkve Gospe od zdravlja (ex Sv. JuraJ) u Vinišćama, u srednjovjekovnuj Driovici, provedena su sondažna iskopavanja, koja su pružila niz relevantnih podataka za potpunije sagledavanje toga višeslojnog lokaliteta. Potvrdeno je da je romaničkajednobrodna crkva s oblom apSidom, koja je uz odredene barokne preinake u osnovi zadržala svoj izvorni oblik, a koja je prema sačuvanim dokumentima dovršena 1272. godine u sklopu posjeda benediktinske opatije Sv. Ivana iz Trogira, sagradena u arealu rimske villae rusticae od koje je još sačuvan dio izvornih zidova iz ranorimske epohe. To je imanje ostalo u funkciji i tijekom kasne antike, što potvrduJu nalazi novca i keramike. Benediktinci su uz crkvu podigli i kamenu zgradu na kat, koja je dijelom iskoristila ranorimsko zide. Uokolo same crkve nije bilo srednjovjekovnih grobova, već samo grobovi iz novoga vijeka, što korespondira spromjenom titulara crkve. Unjima su nadeni nakit, svetačke medaljice i krunice iz razdoblja nakon Kandijskoga rata, a groblje je u funkciji i danas.In the course of two research campaigns (in 1996 and 2000) around the church of Our Lady of Health (Gospa od zdravija)) formerly of St. George (Sv.
