Prehistory

Gradine – prehistoric settlement Sv. Križ.

Posted on by JanS

This gradine had three terraces that can be distinguished in height. These are partially walled by defense walls with a width of approximately 4 meters and a height of 2 meters. Due to the favorable location, the people from prehistoric times had a good view of the surroundings such as the Mirna valley, the roads and the surrounding settlements. After the arrival of the Romans, this gradine was probably used as a guard post.
