Abstract
Na predstavljanju božićnih običaja Korduna u Zagrebu, u božićno vrijeme 2002. godine, prikazani su i ukrašeni božićni kruhovi i peciva iz raznih kordunskih sela, od Cetingrada do Drežnika. Kruhovi su pohranjeni u Etnografski muzej u Zagrebu, gdje su izrađene i kopije u odgovarajućim materijalima. Prije pohrane svi su kruhovi fotografirani za fototeku Hrvatskog kulturnog društva Braće
Radića iz Zagreba. Uz fotografije sam pribilježio i nazive pojedinih ukrasa na bož\u27čnjacima, način izrade i ulogu ukrašenih kruhova u današnje vrijeme. Ujedno upozoravam na ženske likove u nošnji, za koje pretpostavljam da prikazuju stariju inačicu kordunske nošnje.Decorated bread and rolls from different villages of Kordun, from Cetingrad to Drežnik, have been shown at the presentation of the Kordun Christmas customs around Christmas in 2002 in Zagreb. Those pieces have been deposited in the Ethnographic Museum in Zagreb, where copies were made, using appropriate materials. Before the pieces were deposited, photographs of all of them have been taken for the photographic collection of the Croatian Cultural Society "Braće Radića" from Zagreb. Besides taking the photographs, the names of the bož\u27ćnjaci decorations, the way they were made and
the role of the role decorated bread plays today have also been noted down. The author also emphasizes the role of female characters in national costumes, supposing that they represent the older variant of the costume from Kordun
