	abstract = {{\textquotedblleft}Mirilo{\textquotedblright}, which is widely scattered around the Velebit mountain area of Croatia, is not likely to be a unique cultural heritage of the Croatian people in terms of historical and cultural history, but rather it seems reasonable to understand it as a result of the Balkans{\textquoteright} cultural dissemination and acceptance. In this paper, we start from the two meanings of the term {\textquotedblleft}Mirilo{\textquotedblright}, and look at geographical and geological conditions that enable such cultural heritage, similar stone tomb patterns found in other Balkans, and patterns of decoration and patterns carved on {\textquotedblleft}Mirilo{\textquotedblright}.But Croatia{\textquoteright}s Mirilo, looking at in this paper, has a unique feature that is distinct from the stecak, another stone tomb form which was found in the neighboring Bosnia-Herzegovina region, and in that unique characteristic is the customary stance on the life and death of the Croatian people, as well as a unique view of the world to the living and the dead.The value of {\textquotedblleft}Mirilo{\textquotedblright} as a tangible and intangible cultural heritage, as well as from a folklore point of view, is a useful source of confirmation of the life and death aspects of the Croatian people during the period from the 17th century to the 20th century.},
