Abstract

This paper concerns a newly discovered barrel-vaulted tomb in the site of Kale-Strezov Grad the village of Čelevec. This archaeological find simply confirms the idea about the availability of this type of sepulchral monuments on the territory of the Republic of Macedonia, which has twice been the topic of interest of professor Lilčić-Adams. The tomb was open and raided in the Middle Ages or earlier and it started to be reused in the 13th-14th century. According to the typological characteristics of the tomb form and the stylistic characterisations of the painted decoration which is preserved in the interior, the building of the tomb is dated from the 6th century.
