Summary/Abstract: This article is about Tatarpazarı District, which is now within the borders of Bulgaria and also known as Pazardžik, with regard to the kefalet register dated September 14, 1796. The reason why this subject is chosen is that Tatarpazarı found place predominantly in the 15-17th centuries and 19th century in the literature. Therefore, this study contributes to the integration of the history of Tatarpazarı. The examined kefalet register is far beyond being a social control mechanism to prevent the people of the region from mixing with the bandits and not giving them any help,it reveals the demographic, social, and economic structure of Tatarpazarı at a time when the mountaineer revolts ravaged the Balkan cities.
