Recordist's notes

walking towards and entering a small church where the "Bascanska ploca" was discovered(a pluteus with old slavic characters chiselled out in stone,crucial document of Croatian history);since 1100 till 1850 it lay forgotten on the floor;in the decade of strong patriotic pathos (1990-ties) the church was full of moist, scorpions could be seen around; commentaries of 2 women who opened the church for us are related to that subject
