Ethno collection

Project Info

Project Description

The web portal E-tno.com is result of love for the cultural heritage of Bosnia and Herzegovina due cultural heritage connects the past and the present, tells us who we are and where we come from. E-tno collection of traditional objects was established with the intention to increase access to the general public to the tangible and intangible cultural heritage of Bosnia and Herzegovina, as well as to contribute to the systematic protection and permanent storage of valuable content in digital form. With an innovative way of viewing content, our goal was to provide users with standardized access to stored digital cultural heritage content in one place. E-tno collection was established with the aim of understanding and preserving valuable evidence of the traditional way of life of people in Herzegovina in the past.

We want to ensure the future safe storage of artifacts from all aspects of rural life in Bosnia and Herzegovina dating from the Middle Ages to the end of World War II. The content of the Ethno Collection is divided into five areas that together form a complete collection, namely folk costumes, traditional households, traditional crafts, agriculture and the economy, and intangible heritage. We hope that this comprehensive presentation of our heritage with this collection will provide scientists and the general public with a more complete perspective on the history and culture of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

The project is designed with a focus on the wider area of ​​the Blidinje Nature Park, which due to its natural specifics is included in the tentative list of UNESCO World Natural Heritage. The area of ​​the Blidinje Nature Park is a natural geographical and historical ensemble where the intensive life of various civilizations have left traces of their existence. The natural wealth of basic raw materials such as water, wood and stone provided favorable living conditions, while the mountainous area provided shelter and food for the Croatian people who lived in this area.
