The fingerprint island "Baljenac"
•Located in the Šibenik archipelago, Croatia.
•The uninhabited Croatian island looks like a giant fingerprint - thanks to an amazing network of walls built by local farmers in the 1800s.
•It covers an area of 0.14 square km. The stone walls, if joined together, would run for 23km (14 miles).
•According to the Croatian National Tourist Board, the island, was used for agriculture by farmers on neighbouring Kaprije island.
•They cleared Baljenac's ‘harsh vegetation’ to make room for fig and citrus trees, as well as grapevines, building a web of stone walls to protect the crops from the wind, and to divide up the plots.
•These waist-high stone walls - dating back to the 1800s - were created using a technique known as 'dry stone walling', which involves carefully stacking and interlocking rocks.
