The ethnological exhibition and "Calligraphy" in the Native Museum of Homolje

The visitors will have the opportunity to see the ethnological exhibition in the Museum for a whole year. The exhibition’s author is ethnologist Danica Đokić. The exhibition displays the following: the residential architecture; the dishes which were once used; the food that could be produced in Homolje back then; the segment of the traditional economy; sheep breeding and keeping; the elements of the old Serbian national clothes where we managed to preserve “trvelj” (a medieval headband) and the archaic national clothes for Vlach women where aprons with thrums are the most striking detail. Furthermore, the exhibition also displays the motifs of “slava” (a Serbian Orthodox tradition of glorifying a saint that represents the guardian of a family which annually prepares a celebration on the saint’s feast day), and of the economy, more precisely crafts and catering, that turned Žagubica into a small town and influenced the forming of the bazaar.
