Autor raščlanjuje pitanje stilskog vrednovanja ranosrednjovjekovne sakralne arhitekture na prostoru Kaštela i njezin odnos prema istodobnoj skulpturi, mahom kamenom crkvenom namještaju, u kontekstu predromaničkoga stila od 9. do 11. stoljeća. Na temelju analize arhitektonskih oblika dokazuje da u Kaštelima postoje u tom razdoblju dvije skupine crkava. Jedna, koju tvore adaptirane starokršćanske građevine, i druga, kojoj pripadaju izvorno novi predromanički oblici. Prva je skupina zastupljena na vladarskim posjedima (Bijaći – Sv. Marta, Sv. Vital, Putalj – Sv. Juraj i Sv. Nikola od Raduna) i nastala je u 9. stoljeću u završnoj fazi kristijanizacije, a druga pripada još jednoj obnovi tih istih crkava (Sv. Marta, Sv. Nikola) i jedinoj izvorno predromaničkoj crkvi u Kaštelima (Sv. Juraj od Raduna), koju je dala podići pobliže nepoznata rodovska zajednica, a koja je podignuta na samom kraju predromaničke epohe, anticipirajući i pojedine ranoromaničke elemente. Crkve na vladarskim posjedima su bez iznimke opremljene predromaničkim kamenim namještajem, za razliku od Sv. Jurja od Raduna, koja nema skulpture – bilo arhitektonske ili crkvenog namještaja u interijeru. Na osnovu iznesenih primjera, osvrće se i na društveni položaj i ulogu donatora tih crkava. ; The author analyzes the stylistic evaluation of early medieval sacral architecture in the Kaštela area and its relationship to the contemporary sculpture, mostly stone ecclesiastic furnishings, in the context of the pre-Romanesque style from the 9th to the 11th centuries. On the basis of the analysis of the architectural forms, it is shown that two groups of churches existed in that period. One consisted of adapted Early Christian buildings and the other featured original new pre-Romanesque forms. The first group was represented at estates of rulers (Bijaći – Sv. Marta/ St. Martha, Sv. Vital/St. Vitalis, Putalj – Sv. Juraj/St. George, and Sv. Nikola od Raduna /St. Nicholas of Radun) and was created in the 9th century in the final phase of Christianization, while the other was represented by yet another renovation of these same churches (St. Martha, St. Nicholas), along with the only originally pre-Romanesque church in Kaštela (St. George of Radun), which was erected by an unknown clan/family unit at the every end of the pre-Romanesque epoch, anticipating individual Early Romanesque elements. The churches on the rulers’ estates were all without exception outfitted with pre-Romanesque stone furnishings, in contrast to St. George of Radun, which had no sculpture – either architectural or ecclesiastic furnishings in the interior. On the basis of the cited examples, reference is made to the social position and role of the donators of these churches
