Hramko
Sramko (Serbian Cyrillic: Срамко, Archaic: Срамько) or Hramko, was a knez (nobleman) in the Trebinje province believed to have been active during the Nemanjić dynasty (1166–1371).
An inscription found by scholar S. Delić near the Church of St. Peter in the locality of Crnče near Trebinje reading "Poleta, Drougan and Dražeta buried their mother in the days of glorious Duke Sramko" (Полета, Дроугань, Дражета чине ракоу надь материю оу дьни славьна кнеза Срамька), was published in 1913 (Delić had likely found it in the winter of 1912 or early 1913).[1][2] Grave tablets were unearthed while digging the base for the new church.[3] The grave tablet mentioning Sramko was unearthed by the western wall of the nave of the church, some 40 cm below surface, with a part of it set in the base of the church.[3] The dimensions of the tablet were 130×80 cm.[3] V. Ćorović, writing in 1925, proposed that the unusual name Sramko was to be read as Hramko (Храмько).[1] M. Vego, too, read it as Hramko, and believed that he was an important person, even more so than Grd.[4] Vego believed that he lived during the Nemanjić period, after ousting knez Mihailo from the Trebinje province.[5]
In a Latin donation charter, a Chrance, rendered Hranko (Хранко) or Hramko, has been connected by some scholars to Sramko. The text mentions "The seal of Hranko and all župani of Zahumlje" (Sigillum Chrance cum omnibus suis iupanis Zacholmie).[6] F. Šišić however disputed this, as he regarded the donation charter a falsification[7] as is generally held against several alleged 12th- and 13th-century donation charters, including Desa's alleged 1151 charter that dates to the 13th century.[8]

Svakako najinteresantniji nalaz, otkriven prilikom kopanja temelja za novu crkvu, predstavlja nadgrobna ploča sa natpisom u kome se pominje knez Sramko. Za nju Delić kaže da je otkrivena uz zapadni zid naosa crkve oko 40 cm ispod površine i da jednim delom zalazi u temelj zida.33 Dimenzije ploče su iznosile: dužina 1,30, a širina 0,80 m.

Sišić nije ulazio u autentičnost čitanja natpisa iz Crnča (Čičeva), nego ga je prepisao po Delićevu prijepisu i dokazao da se Sramko, ili Ćorovićev Hramko, ne može identifikovati s Hrankom u jednoj latinskoj povelji, a ovu Šišić smatra falzifikatom. Šišić misli da je Hramko jedva historijska ličnost, jer se ime Hramko javlja rijetko u spomenicima potkraj XII i u prvoj polovini XIH vijeka131). Budući da čitanje i ostali momenti u natpisu nisu riješeni, revidiramo natpis prema originalu i prema našem odljevku. Trainsliteracija natpisa glasi: [...] (p. 243)
