On The Glagolitic Inscription From Konavli

Summary/Abstract: The Glagolitic inscription was found in secondary use built in the church of Little Mary in the village Dunave near the fortress Soko in Konavli. The forms of the letters show strong influence of the contemporary Cyrillic alphabet, and some orthographic characteristics, like vocalization of the semiphonema, and words like denar indicate XIII century as the period when the inscription has been incised. In his rusty done, but emotionally motivated inscription the author declares himself as church servant (eklisiarhos), not blind but although barefoot and nude, opulent with plenty of money in his sole. His service was probably in the old orthodox church in the village Dunave, destructed to the ground and its ruins were used for the church of Little Mary. The Glagolitic inscription from Konavli belongs to the special form of Glagolitic alphabet which existed parallel with Cyrillic alphabet in the XIII century in the Serbian ethnical and political environment in today Croatia.
