Abstract— The resonance phenomenon in Ravne tunnels in Bosnia – Herzegovina is an unusual but unknown phenomenon. A number of researchers consider this structure to be an ancient
mine. But in our research we demonstrated a very strong response at 71,57Hz when a singer sings inside the tunnel. Our thesis is that this structure was also used for rituals and prayers,
because the resonance of these frequencies can have a direct effect on the human body, in the same way as was found in ancient Neolithic temples in South of England.

Abstract - The team is actually working in Visoko’s area, a city of the central Bosnia I Herzegovina, approximately 30 km far from Sarajevo. The research aims to locate, to list and to broadcast the stećak, burial-ritual objects about the medieval era, as a requirement for to conserve and re-design in an innovative way the urban shape and the natural landscape. The survey and the graphic description of the stećak will introduce to a dynamic data processing archives, that is very helpful for to understand the history of the place, the typological and morphological frame of the settlement and itslandscape, the connections between content and form.
At the same time, the research will focus on similar stone handmade discovered in the Nord-West Sardinia, especially on the Tomba della scacchiera, a Neolithic burial-ritual sites at the Necropolis of Sa Pala Larga.
