According to the local oral tradition, she was born in the village of Rumboci, in Prozor-Rama, between two historical regions of Bosnia and Herzegovina, at the boundary of southern Bosnia and northern Herzegovina. In a legend Diva Grabovčeva refused to marry outside of her religion and refused the local Ottoman nobleman's marriage proposal, ran away from her home and hid in the Kedžara area. The young man found her and in a moment of rage he killed her. At the beginning of the 20th century the archaeologist Ćiro Truhelka found mortal remains in a grave at Kedžara, which he claimed belonged to a young girl, and associated it with the legend, claiming that it could be Diva Grabovčeva.[1]
Perceptionedit
Although Diva was neither recorded in chronicles of the Franciscan friary, Šćit [bs] in Prozor-Rama, nor its martyrology,[2] she became a symbol of virginity, and the grave marked by Truhelka a pilgrimage site, which the local Catholics used in a usually very intimate, a private, rite of sacramental oath or sacramentum.[1] In modern times she is memorialized particularly among Bosnian Croats.[1]
Ivan Markešić [hr], Bosnian Croat sociologist and Christian theologian, critically assessed current perception of the myth, questioning a narrative's very public celebration from the 1990s onward, and a potential for political abuse and excessive glorification of the time past in relation to present, especially as a means of otherization.[1]
In popular cultureedit
