I thought I'd move my last puzzle to the new forum. I visited the site a long time ago. Google Earth image, please. Good luck!

Well found Walter, Groovy, CuriousJM and krenek! Answer >> This necropolis, named Radimlja, is located in the modern state of Bosnia and Herzegovina, 43.0921° N, 17.9242° E.
From the Stećak article in Wikipedia:
Stećak ([stetɕak]; plural: Stećci [stetɕtsi]) is the name for monumental medieval tombstones that lie scattered across Bosnia and Herzegovina, and the border parts of Croatia, Montenegro and Serbia, although almost exclusively following the borders of the medieval Bosnian Kingdom. An estimated 60,000 are found within the borders of modern Bosnia and Herzegovina and the rest of 10,000 are found in what are today Croatia, Serbia, and Montenegro. Appearing in the 11th century, the tombstones reached their peak in the 14th and 15th century, before disappearing during the Ottoman occupation. They were a common tradition amongst Bosnian Church, Catholic and Orthodox followers.
