Brestovik is a small, depopulating village (population of 1,129 in 1991 and 1,076 in 2002), on the road of Smederevski put which connects Belgrade and Smederevo.

Though evidence points to the tomb of a wealthy local, popular belief is that the "martyrs of Singidunum", Hermylus and Stratonicus, were buried inside.

The local population believes that some of the inhabitants discovered them while working in the field and dragged them to the bus stop, but no one remembers who or when.

They were transported into the yard of the Rančić Family house in Grocka, itself a cultural monument since 1966, where they will be safer, properly protected and accessible for the further studies.

Based on their size, details and robust frame, it is believed that they were part of some monumental construction from the Roman Antiquity period.

That points to the conclusion that they are either segments of a sacral architecture, but more likely of a large public building, most certainly built before the 4th century, from the period of the golden age of the nearby Singidunum, modern Belgrade.
