I – INTRODUCTION
Pursuant to Article 2, paragraph 1 of the Law on the Implementation of the Decisions of the Commission to Preserve National Monuments, established pursuant to Annex 8 of the General Framework Agreement for Peace in Bosnia and Herzegovina, a “National Monument” is an item of public property proclaimed by the Commission to Preserve National Monuments to be a National Monument pursuant to Articles V and VI of Annex 8 of the General Framework Agreement for Peace in Bosnia and Herzegovina and property entered on the Provisional List of National Monuments of Bosnia and Herzegovina (Official Gazette of BiH no. 33/02) until the Commission reaches a final decision on its status, as to which there is no time limit and regardless of whether a petition for the property in question has been submitted or not.
On 17 October 2009 the Department of Administrative and Social Affairs and Inspection of Konjic Municipality submitted to the Commission a petition/proposal to designate the necropolises with stećak tombstones in the village of Čičevo, Konjic Municipality, as a National Monument.
Pursuant to the provisions of the law, the Commission proceeded to carry out the procedure for reaching a final decision to designate the Property as a National Monument, pursuant to Article V para. 4 of Annex 8 and Article 35 of the Rules of Procedure of the Commission to Preserve National Monuments.
Statement of Significance
According to the figures provided by Šefik Bešlagić, Konjic Municipality, with 3018 recorded stećak tombstones, is among the regions that have the greatest number of these tombstones in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The most common shape is the chest-shaped tombstone, with gabled (sarcophagus-shaped) and slab-shaped tombstones represented in almost equal numbers. They way the tombstones are grouped makes it possible to trace and record major historical developments, changes and relationships. Large necropolises are a reliable indicator of the location of the centres of former religious and political communities, while medium-sized necropolises mark the development of clan-based villages; smaller groups of tombstones indicate growing feudalization and social differentiation, when certain clans ceased to bury their dead alongside their neighbours’, instead forming individual family necropolises.
There are six sites of necropolises with stećak tombstones in the village of Čičevo, of which those covered by this Decision form a cluster: the Kaursko groblje necropolis, a tall gabled stećak on the other side of the road, two chest-shaped tombstones near the Glogovac family house and three tall gabled tombstones at Glavica, above the Bovan family house. The Kaursko groblje necropolis has 90 stećak tombstones (89 chest-shaped and one tall, decorated gabled tombstone), of good workmanship, lying east-west. The three tall decorated gabled tombstones at Glavica, above the Bovan family house, are decorated with a vine-and-trefoil motif, rope twist, cross and rosette.
The necropolises are at risk from self-sown vegetation, lichen and moss.

Historical information
The area around the upper Neretva straddles two regions. Since prehistoric times, the roads linking central Bosnia with the Adriatic coast ran along the Neretva valley and its outer margins. With some alterations and adaptations to the route, major roads ran here in antiquity, mediaeval times and the Ottoman period, until the road was laid through the Neretva gorge from Jablanica to the south in the 1880s. The central Bosnian ore-rich mining area, the fertile soils of the Neretva valley, and the rich mountain pastures, all led to the formation of many settlements throughout history, in line with the conditions and demands of their respective times, on the great bend in the Neretva between the mountain massifs of Bitovnja, Bjelašnica and Visočica to the north, and Prenj and Čvrsnica to the south.
In the early mediaeval period, the wider Konjic region consisted of the Neretva župa (county), part of the Zagorja župa (the area around Bjelimići) and part of the Kom župa (the area around Glavatičevo). The earliest reference to the Neretva župa is in the Chronicles of the Doclean priest, written in the mid 12th century. It lay between the župas of Rama and Kom. According to the Chronicles, the Podgorje district also belonged to it. By the mid 11th century the župa had presumably been incorporated into the Bosnian state. From then on until ban (governor) Tvrtko came to power in 1353, it enjoyed special status within the Bosnian state.(1)

4. Research and conservation-restoration works
The National Museum in Sarajevo began a systematic study of the necropolises with stećci in Bosnia and Herzegovina in the 1950s.
According to Pavao Anđelić, the necropolis at Kaursko groblje, about 250 m west of the Glogovac house, has 81 stećci, 77 chests and four gabled, three of which are decorated with rope twist, vine with trefoils, a cross, a rosette, a human figure with hands on hips, a woman and a man.(3) He also notes that there are two chest-shaped tombstones near the Glogovac family house and three tall, handsomely decorated gabled tombstones at Glavica, above the Bovan family house, decorated with a vine and trefoil, rope twist, cross, rosette and human figure.(4)
5. Current condition of the property
The findings of an on site visit conducted on 6 October 2009 are as follows:
- the 95 stećci covered by this Decision were recorded, most of them in hornbeam and hazel copses;
- the stećci are in poor condition, largely covered with plant organisms (moss and lichen) which are breaking up the structure of the stone;
- some of the stećci are leaning off true;
- some of the stećci are sinking into the ground;
- a few of the stećci have been so badly corroded by plant organisms as to be almost amorphous;
- some of the stećci are visibly damaged (split, more or less deeply cracked, or with the top surface damaged);
- Pavao Anđelić recorded 81 stećci in 1975, but while preparing this decision on 6 October 2009 a Commission staff member found 90 tombstones.
