| Popis: | Autor u radu razrađuje mogućnost postojanja određenih razlika u tragovima kamenarskih alata unutar antičkih, srednjovjekovnih, a dijelom i ranonovovjekovnih kamenoloma. Spomenuti tragovi očituju se u obliku strija na liticama eksploatiranih dijelova kamenoloma. Na temelju analize kamenoloma koji sadrže dovoljno elemenata za pobližu dataciju, autor zaključuje da postoje značajne razlike između antičkih i srednjovjekovnih kamenoloma i to u gustoći, smjeru i dubini strija te značajnije razlike u tlocrtu i načinu širenja kamenoloma. This paper analyses the possibility of the existence of certain differences in the traces of quarrymen’s tools in Classical Antiquity, mediaeval, and certain early modern era quarries. The aforementioned traces are evident in the form of striae on rocks in the exploited parts of the quarries. Based on analyses of quarries containing a sufficient amount of elements for closer dating, the paper concludes that there are significant differences between Classical Antiquity and mediaeval quarries in terms of the density, direction and depth of the striae, as well as important differences in the layout and expansion of the quarries. |
