Summary/Abstract: State Archives in Zadar keep the archival fund Curia consulum et maris that includes acts of the Zadar trade and maritime court from the second half of the fourteenth and early fifteenth centuries. Yet documents in this fund are not all of the preserved acts of this medieval Zadar court of justice, because almost one third of all records of Curia consulum et maris are currently kept in the archival fund Curia maior ciuilium. The goal of this essay is to reconstruct original units of documentation of the merchant and maritime court in Zadar in the Middle Ages. The essay also brings information on the officials of these Zadar courts in the second half of the fourteenth century, and competences of this courts. Together with the reconstruction of original units of documentation of the Zadar civil court in the fund Curia maior ciuilium, which will be published soon, this essay will create complete picture of Zadar medieval court records, the level of their preservation and the way in which they were administered in the second half of the fourteenth century.
