Rekonstrukcija svetega prostora na primeru lokacije sv. Hilarija in Tacijana pri Robiču // Reconstruction of a Sacred Place. The Location of St. Hilarius and Tacian near Robič (Western Slovenia)
Studia mythologica Slavica, 2008Co-Authors: Boštjan KravanjaAbstract:In the present article, I am examining different folk stories and legends that are attached to a small medieval church of st. Hilarius and Tacian in Western Slovenia not far from Slovenian-Italian border. I try to do this according to different variables, such as historical background of the wider area and archaeological findings, church history, toponimy, morphology and last but not least, comparative Slavic mythological findings. The expected result is a more or less exhaustive reconstruction of a Sacred Place that can serve as another case-model for researches of South Slavic (pre) Christian landscapes.

Sveti prostor v prepletu mitološke ideologije in simbolike kraja // The Sacred Place: An Intertwining of Mythological Ideology and Spatial Symbolism
Studia mythologica Slavica, 2005Co-Authors: Boštjan KravanjaAbstract:The topic presented in this paper addresses the methodology of researching the Sacred space and Place. Since religious believes represent one of the most important anthropological fields, also the Sacred Places represent a heterogeneous theme, much reflected in the history of sciences. The article presents various historical, socio-cultural, political, symbolical, and scientific frames in which the concept of the Sacred Place has been formed and has been changing.

remembering a Sacred Place the depositional history of hilazon tachtit a natufian burial cave
Journal of Anthropological Archaeology, 2019Co-Authors: Hadas Goldgeier, Natalie D. Munro, Leore GrosmanAbstract:Abstract Hilazon Tachtit Cave served as a cemetery for at least 28 individuals and an arena for interment rituals and other activities. The nature of the activities in the cave, their frequency and their recurrence over time, demonstrate that this site was an important Sacred Place on the Late Natufian (ca. 12,000 cal. BP) landscape of the western Galilee of Israel. Using a GIS-based approach, we examine the distribution and density of small flint chips and other microartifacts within the site to ascertain the location, timing and intensity of activities. From this, we reconstruct the depositional history and the order of burial and ritual events in the cave. We then explore the role of collective memory in the formation and continued use of the cave as a unique cemetery. Our results show that the memory of the initial burial event shaped the future use of the cave, its importance as a site for human burial and ritual performance, and its Place as a Sacred locale for the Late Natufian community.

framing spatial religious conflicts the case of mormon development in jerusalem
Tijdschrift voor economische en sociale geografie, 2015Co-Authors: Michal Ben Gal, Noga Collinskreiner, Deborah F. ShmueliAbstract:The paper's aims are twofold: first to present framing methodology as an approach which provides insights into conflicts stemming from the construction of new religious sites. Second, to analyse the Brigham Young University Jerusalem Center, using framing in order to understand the spatial-religious conflicts involved in its establishment. The findings fall within three frame categories (‘super-frames’) identified in the research: ‘process’, ‘values’, and ‘issues’. The findings reveal that the discord surrounding the BYU Center had to do primarily with process and the values, and not around the issues themselves. The methodology provides a typology for understanding and analysing the different stories told by stakeholders involved in spatial-religious conflicts where the decision adopted might be perceived as endangering identity and ‘sense of Place’. The typology may be helpful in the analysis of similar disputes elsewhere, and shed light on ways to reframe conflicts over Sacred Place
