| Kotor, Church of St. Mary (Collegiata), Remains of Sculptural Decoration of Pre-Romanesque Edifice | Artifact | Remains of sculptural decoration found in the lower layers of the altar apse and the sacristy of the Church of St. Mary (Collegiata) in Kotor, as well as the remains of church furniture, allow a certain reconstruction of the Early Christian basilica that was located on the site of the present-day church. The decoration consists mainly of floral and geometric motifs (interlacing). The remains of the altar architrave beam, which consists of a three-part braid and an inscription in Latin IN N(OMINE) D(OMI)NI ET S (ALVATORI)... (J)OHANNIS CVM CONIV(GE), were found. The name Ivan that is read in the inscription is probably the Bishop Ivan of Kotor with his wife. More parts of the inscription were found, but they were not preserved enough to allow an interpretation. Above the Early Christian baptistery a triangular pediment with an archivolt was found carved in local yellow limestone. The interweaving and motifs are similar to the motifs of Prince Ivan's inscription, whose tombstone was also excavated. The lintel with the Latin inscription above the Southern portal of the church also belongs to this group and states: IN NOMINE D(OMI)NI D(E)I SALVATORI NOSTRIS IHS XPI INTER ANTUBVUS PAX EXIENTIBUS SALVTE. |

| Kotor, Church of St. Peter in Šuranj | Place | The Church of St. Peter is situated on the Southern side of the old town of Kotor in the area of Šuranj. The Benedictine monastery was built between the 9th and the 11th century on a former Late Antique building. Judging by the remains, it could be concluded that the Church of St. Peter in Šuranj was a three-nave basilica, with a middle nave twice as wide as the lateral ones. The apse is semicircular on the inside and rectangular on the outside. The side naves end in the East with smaller apses of external and internal semicircular ground plan. |
