Ravanjska vrata - necropolis with stećak tombstones
The lower necropolis has 43 tombstones: 20 slabs, 20 chest-shaped and three gabled. They are of good workmanship, though now somewhat damaged, and most lie north-west/south-east. Eighteen are decorated: five slabs, ten chests and three gabled. The most common motifs are bands and borders of diagonal zigzag lines, followed by fleur de lis, hunting scenes and round-dance scenes, a hand with a sword, a shield with a sword, two women, a man with a horse, a scrolling vine with trefoils and a twisted circular garland. The quarry for the tombstones was close by.
The upper necropolis is to the west of the lower, on the gentle slope of Crljenica. It contains 25 tombstones: ten slabs, eight chest-shaped and seven gabled. They are of good workmanship, but in poor condition, and lie in both cardinal directions.
Fifteen are decorated, five slabs, five chests and five gabled. The most common decorative motifs are rosettes, crescent moons, circular garlands and crosses, but jousting scenes in arcades and fleur de lis stand out on account of their workmanship. There are also scrolling vines with trefoils, a hand, a shield with a sword, a staff, a border of plain and zigzag bands, the figure of a deer, and two human figures in arcades.
