Supplement to the Dowry Issue in Kotor in the First Half of the XVth Century

Summary/Abstract: The dowry of the noblewoman from the Zagurović family in Kotor in the first half of the XVth century was presented, according to the unpublished material of the Archives of Kotor and the decisions stated in the Statute of Kotor. The emphasis was put on changes having occurred in the amount and the composition of the dowry during the XIVth and the XVth centuries. The noblewomen's dowry usually consisted of real property (lands, stores, houses) and a less significant amount of ready money in the first half of the XVth century, compared to the former one (i.e. first half of the XIVth century), at the time when Kotor made part of Medieval Serbia. During that period, the noblewomen usually obtained gold in dowry (50-100 axagia) and ready money, but less frequently real property. The study on the institutional character of the dowry in Medieval Kotor (i.e. in the first half of the XVth century) was conducted.
