Donje Peulje between Dinara and Šator – Stećak Tombs and Roman Traces
Donje Peulje lies between the foothills of Dinara and Å ator. The mountainous landscape shapes the setting of the village, while cemeteries, a church, and the road toward Livno provide distinct local points of reference.
Nature
Within the municipality of Bosansko Grahovo, Å ator lies to the northeast and Dinara to the southwest. Donje Peulje is therefore located between the foothills of these two mountain ranges, with the directions of the mountains referring to the municipality of Bosansko Grahovo.
Culture
The marble cemetery in Donje Peulje contains 100 Stećak tombstones in slab, chest, and sarcophagus forms. It also includes hundreds of old graves and additional Stećak tombstones. Remains of a Roman settlement can also be found at the marble cemetery. Thus, different historical traces and precisely identified tombstone forms come together at this site.
An Orthodox cemetery is located next to the marble cemetery in Donje Peulje. This Orthodox cemetery contains around 50 chest-shaped tombstones from the late Middle Ages. The remains of several people were also exhumed at the Orthodox cemetery in Donje Peulje; they are suspected of having been victims of the recent war.
The Church of Saint George the Great Martyr also stands in Donje Peulje. Together with the two neighboring cemetery sites and the tombstones preserved there, it is one of the local cultural sites.
Location
Donje Peulje lies on the road toward Livno. This road connection is part of the immediate surroundings of the village and exists alongside the cemeteries, the church, and the mountainous landscape.
In the wider regional area around Donje Peulje, the road journey from Livno to Å atorsko jezero leads via the turnoff near Gornje Peulje and then along an unpaved road. The regional route therefore includes the aforementioned turnoff and the subsequent unpaved section, while the location of Donje Peulje between the foothills of Dinara and Å ator remains separate from it.
The geographical connections thus extend from Donje Peulje itself through the municipality of Bosansko Grahovo and into the wider regional area. Within these levels, the mountains and their directions, the local cultural sites, and the road connections each belong to different geographical contexts.
