Summary/Abstract: The paper analyses the circumstances and timing of Petar Pavlović’s acquisition of the ducal title in the context of complex political conflicts following the death of his father Pavle Radinović. Previous historiographical accounts placed these events at the beginning of 1417, with the first mention of duke Petar Pavlović in February of the same year. New information and contextualization suggest that these events in Bosnian kingdom may have occurred several months earlier, around the autumn of 1416.
