Apstrakt:
U parohijskom domu Crkve Sv. velikomučenice Marine u selu Krvavica kod Kruševca čuva se manji bronzani krst sa urezanom predstavom svetitelja. Pronađen je prilikom kopanja temelja za podizanje crkve početkom '90-ih godina prošlog veka na mestu na kom se pretpostavlja da je u prošlosti postojao sakralni objekat. Pronađeni krst predstavlja aversni deo enkolpiona iz perioda XI–XII veka. Nalaz karakteriše urezana predstava Sv. Kozme koja ga čini jedinstvenim primerkom među krstovima – relikvijarima sa predstavama svetitelja na širem prostoru. Prilikom izgradnje crkve, pored krsta, otkriveno je i nekoliko grobova koji sugerišu postojanje srednjovekovne nekropole. Sam nalaz enkolpiona predstavlja značajan hronološki indikator za datovanje nekropole ili jedne njene faze.

Summary:
A small bronze cross with an engraved image of a saint is kept in the parish house of the Holy Great Martyr Marina's church, in the village of Krvavica near Kruševac. The encolpion cross was found during excavations for the church foundations in the early 1990s, in the place of the assumed old sacral building. The cross represents the obverse part of the double encolpion cross dating back to the 11th/12th century. It has the shape of a Latin cross with the "droplets" placed on the edges of its arms. It is characterised by an engraved representation of St. Cosmas, which makes it a unique example in a wider range of crosses – reliquaries with the representations of saints. The most direct typological and stylistic analogy can be drawn between the encolpion cross from Krvavica and the reliquary cross from the military fortification in Ravna near Boljetin on the Danube. Other analogies originate mainly from the territory of today's Bulgaria.
Besides the cross, several graves were discovered during the construction of the church, which suggests the existence of a medieval necropolis. This will be confirmed by further archaeological research. The finding of the encolpion cross itself is an important chronological indicator for the dating of the assumed necropolis or one of its phases.
