Sveti Ivan Traditional Geocache

This cache has been archived.

Cenarius: Hi Ouškovi,

Unfortunately there's been some continuing issues with this cache and there is no reaction from the owner. Since the cache no longer meets the Guidelines requirements, I am archiving it. I'm also archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements.

If you think you have legitimate reasons for lack of maintenance and want to restore the cache in the near future, please let me know as soon as possible by the email provided in my profile. The message must include the GC code and the name of the cache. If the cache meets the requirements of the Guidelines and the reasons for unarchiving are justified, I may unarchive the cache.

IMPORTANT:
In case of permanent archiving of the cache, the owners are obliged to remove everything that they have placed on the field in relation to the cache (container and all placed waypoints).

Thank you for your understanding and best regards.

Geocache Description:


Južnije od Umaga nalazi se malo mjesto Sv. Ivan s istoimenom crkvicom. Na talijanskom naselje se i danas zove S. Giovanni della Corneta. Na talijanskom corniolo znaci dren, pa se ovim „della Corneta“ naznacivalo kako je rijec o mjestu gdje raste puno drena. Na ovaj se nacin Sv. Ivan kraj Umaga razlikovao od još nekih istoimenih mjesta (Sv. Ivan) u Istri. U antici i srednjem vijeku naselje je bilo utvrdeno zbog vrlo važne luke. Pod morem uvale Sv. Ivan (na slici) nalaze se još vidljivi ostaci antickog mola dugog 125 m, a širokog 13 m. Podizanjem morske površine more je polagano potopilo anticku luku, a srednjevjekovna luka se tim tempom postepeno pomicala. Luka se koristila sve do kraja 19.st., mada uglavnom za manje brodice. Prvenstveno je služila za ukrcaj/iskrcaj kamena i drva. Izvor: Korijeni istarskih gradova, Just Ivetac
